The SRS airbag and seat belt preten-
sioner devices in your Lexus contain 
explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is 
scrapped with the airbags and seat belt 
pretensioners left as they are, this may 
cause an accident such as fire. Be sure 
to have the systems of the SRS airbag 
and seat belt pretensioner removed 
and disposed of by a qualified service 
shop or by your Lexus dealer before 
you scrap your vehicle.

mitter and receiver. It receives and also 
sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
In August 1996, the Federal Commu-
nications Commission (FCC) adopted 
RF exposure guidelines with safety lev-
els for mobile wireless phones. Those 
guidelines are consistent with the 
safety standards previously set by the 
following U.S. and international stan-
dards bodies.
ANSI (American National Stan-
dards Institute) C95.1 [1992]
 NCRP (National Council on Radia-
tion Protection and Measurement) 
Report 86 [1986]
 ICNIRP (International Commission 
on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protec-
tion) [1996]
Those standards were based on com-
prehensive and periodic evaluations of 
the relevant scientific literature. Over 
120 scientists, engi neers, and physi-
cians from universi ties, and govern-
ment health agencies and industries 
reviewed the available body of 
research to develop the ANSI Stan-
dard (C95.1).
The design of Safety Connect com-
plies with the FCC guidelines in addi-
tion to those standards.

 The windows and moon roof (if 
equipped) are closed before the 
alarm is set.
 No valuables or other personal 
items are left in the vehicle.

or stop the alarms:
 Unlock the doors.
 Turn the engine switch to ACC or 
ON, or start the engine. (The alarm 
will be deactivated or stopped after 
a few seconds.)
■System maintenance
The vehicle has a maintenance-free type 
alarm system.
■Triggering of the alarm
The alarm may be triggered in the following 
situations: 
(Stopping the alarm deactivates the alarm

The following keys are provided with 
the vehicle.

• Operating the wireless remote control  function
Mechanical keys
Key number plate
Card key (electronic key) (if 
equipped)
Operating the smart access system with 
push-button start ( P.114)
■Card key (if equipped)
●The mechanical key that  is stored inside 
the card key should be used only if a 
problem arises, such as when the card 
key does not operate properly.
●If the battery cover is not installed and the 
battery falls out or if the battery was 
removed because the key got wet, rein-
stall the battery with the positive terminal 
facing the Lexus emblem.
●The card key is not waterproof.
■When riding in an aircraft
When bringing an electronic key onto an 
aircraft, make sure you do not press any 
buttons on the electronic key while inside 
the aircraft cabin. If you are carrying an 
electronic key in your bag, etc., ensure that 
the buttons are not likely to be pressed acci-
dentally. Pressing a button may cause the 
electronic key to emit radio waves that 
could interfere with the operation of the air-
craft.
■Electronic key battery depletion
●The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years. 
(The card key battery life is about a year 
and a half.)
●If the battery becomes low, an alarm will 
sound in the cabin when the engine stops.
●To reduce key battery depletion when the 
electronic key is to not be used for long 
periods of time, set the electronic key to 
the battery-saving mode. ( P.115)
●As the electronic key always receives 
radio waves, the battery will become 
depleted even if the electronic key is not 
used. The following symptoms indicate 
that the electronic key battery may be 
depleted. Replace the battery when nec-
essary. ( P.341)
• The smart access system with push-but- ton start or the wireless remote control 
does not operate.
• The detection area becomes smaller.
• The LED indicator on the key surface  does not turn on.
You can replace the battery by yourself

■Theft deterrent panic mode
When   is pressed for longer than 
about 1 second, an alarm will sound inter-
mittently and the vehicle lights will flash to 
deter any person from trying to break into 
or damage your vehicle.
To stop the alarm, press any button on the 
electronic key.
To take out the mechanical key, push 
the release button and take the key out.
The mechanical key can  only be inserted in 
one direction, as the key only has grooves 
on one side. If the key cannot be inserted in 
a lock cylinder, turn it over and re-attempt 
to insert it.
After using the mechanical key, store it in 
the electronic key. Carry the mechanical 
key together with the electronic key. If the 
electronic key battery is depleted or the 
entry function does not operate properly, 
you will need the mechanical key. 
(  P.380)

ttery, make sure
