■Electronic Key battery-Saving Function
When battery-saving mode is set, battery depletion is minimized by stopping the elec-
tronic key from receiving radio waves.
■Conditions affe cting operation
The smart access system with push-button star t, wireless remote control and immobilizer
system use weak radio waves. In the followi ng situations, the communication between the
electronic key and the vehicle may be affected, preventing the smart access system with
push-button start, wireless remote control and immobilizer system from operating prop-
erly. (Ways of coping: P. 5 9 1 )
●When the electronic key battery is depleted
●Near a TV tower, electric powe r plant, gas station, radio station, large display, airport or
other facility that generates strong radio waves or electrical noise
●When the electronic key is in contact wi th, or is covered by the following metallic
objects
• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
•Coins
•Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs
●When other wireless keys (that emit radio waves) are being used nearby
●When carrying the electronic key together with the following devices that emit radio
waves
• Portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or other wireless communication
devices
• Another vehicle’s electronic key or a wireless key that emits radio waves
• Personal computers or personal digital assistants (PDAs)
• Digital audio players
• Portable game systems
●If window tint with a metallic content or me tallic objects are attached to the rear win-
dow
●When the electronic key is placed near a battery charger or electronic devices
Press twice while pressing and holding .
Confirm that the electronic key indicator flashes
4 times.
While the battery-saving mode is set, the smart
access system with push-button start cannot be
used. To cancel the function, press any of the
electronic key buttons.

In steering control, the steering control
indicator will come on.
■If “Lane Departure Alert Malfunction Visit Your Dealer” is displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display
Even if the LDA switch is pressed, when th e LDA indicator does not come on the system
may have a malfunction. Have the vehicle in spected by your Lexus dealer immediately.
■The steering control function
There are cases where it may be difficult to sense the steering force on the steering
wheel by the steering control, according to speed, the deviatio n situation, conditions of a
road, etc.
■Alert buzzer for lane deviation alert
Depending on the audio system sound level or air conditioning fan noise while the audio
system or air conditioning system is in use, it may be difficult to hear the alert buzzer.
■After the vehicle has been parked in the sun
The LDA may not be available and a warning message will be displayed for a while after
driving has started. When the temperature in the cabin decreases and the temperature
around the lane recognition camera ( P. 270) becomes suitable for its operation, turn
the LDA switch on again after a short time.
■ If there are lane markers on only one side of the vehicle
The lane deviation alert will not operate for the side on which lane markers could not be
recognized.
■Conditions in which the functi on may not operate correctly
In the following situations, the lane recognition camera may be unable to recognize lane
markers causing the lane deviation alert function to operate incorrectly. However, this
does not indicate a malfunction.
●When there are shadows on the road running parallel with lane markers, or if a shadow
covers the lane markers
●When driving through an area with no lane markers, such as a toll booth, a crossing or
before a ticket checkpoint
●When the lane markers are broken, Botts’ dots (raised pavement markers) or stones
●When lane markers are obscured or partially obscured by sand, dirt, etc.
●When driving on a road surface that is wet du e to rain, previous rainfall, standing water,
etc.
●When the lane markers are yellow (These may be more difficult for the system to rec-
ognize compared to white markers.)

●The shape of the obstacle may prevent a sensor from detecting it. Pay particular atten-
tion to the following obstacles:
• Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
• Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
• Sharply-angled objects
•Low obstacles
• Tall obstacles with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction of your vehi-
cle
●The following situations may occur during use.
• Depending on the shape of the obstacle and other factors, the detection distance may shorten, or detect ion may be impossible.
• Obstacles may not be detected if they are too close to the sensor.
• There will be a short delay between obst acle detection and display. Even at slow
speeds, there is a possibility that the obstacle will come within the sensor’s detection
areas before the display is shown and the buzzer sounds.
• Thin posts or objects lower than the sensor may not be detected when approached, even if they have been detected once.
• It might be difficult to hear beeps due to th e volume of audio system or air flow noise
of the air conditioning system.
■If “Clean Parking Assist Sensor” is di splayed on the multi-information display
A sensor may be dirty or covered with snow or ice. In such cases, if it is removed from the
sensor, the system should return to normal.
Also, due to the sensor being frozen at low temperatures, a malfunction display may
appear or an obstacle may no t be detected. If the sensor thaws out, the system should
return to normal.
■If “Parking Assist Malfunction” is di splayed on the multi-information display
Depending on the malfunction of the sensor, the device may not be working normally.
Have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.
