When trouble arises
5 Start the engine of the second vehi-
cle. Increase the engine speed
slightly and maintain at that level for
approximately 5 minutes to
recharge the 12-volt battery of your
vehicle.

your vehicle with the engine switch
off.
7 Maintain the engine speed of the
second vehicle and start the engine
of your vehicle by
turning the engine switch switch> to IGNITION ON mode
.

jumper cables in the exact reverse
order from which they were con-
nected.
9 Close the exclusive jump starting
terminal cover, and reinstall the fuse
box cover to tits original position.
Once the engine starts,
have the vehicle inspected at your Lexus
dealer as soon as possible.
■Starting the engine
when the 12-volt battery is discharged
The engine cannot be
started by push-starting.
■To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
●Turn off the headlights and the audio sys-
tem while the engine is
stopped.
●Turn off any unnecessary electrical com-
ponents when the vehicle is running at a
low speed for an extended period, such
as in heavy traffic.
■When the 12-volt batte ry is removed or
discharged
●Information stored in the ECU is cleared.
When the 12-volt battery is depleted,
have the vehicle inspected at your Lexus
dealer.
●Some systems may requ ire initialization.
(  P.403)
■When removing the 12-volt battery ter-
minals
When the 12-volt battery terminals are
removed, the information stored in the
ECU is cleared. Before removing the 12-
volt battery terminals, contact your Lexus
dealer.
■Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt battery
will discharge gradually even when the
vehicle is not in use, due to natural dis-
charge and the draining effects of certain
electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for
a long time, the 12-volt battery may dis-
charge, and the engine
may be unable to start. (The 12-volt battery
recharges automatically during driving.)
■When recharging or replacing the 12-
volt battery
●In some cases, it may not be possible to
unlock the doors using the smart access
system with push-button start when the
12-volt battery is discharged. Use the
wireless remote control or the mechani-
cal key to lock or unlock the doors.
●The engine may not start
on the first attempt after the 12-volt bat-
tery has recharged but will start normally
after the second attempt. This is not a
malfunction.
●The engine switch mode
is memorized by the vehicle. When the
12-volt battery is reconnected, the system
will return to the mode it was in before
the 12-volt battery was discharged.
Before disconnecting the 12-volt battery,
turn the engine switch off.
If you are unsure wh at mode the engine
switch was in before the
12-volt battery discharged, be especially
careful when reconnecting the 12-volt
battery.
