■If the electronic key battery is depleted
The following symptoms may occur:
●The smart access system with push-but-
ton start and wireless remote control will
not function properly.
●The operational range will be reduced.
■When the card key battery needs to be
replaced (if equipped)
The battery for the card key is available only
at Lexus dealers. Your Lexus dealer can
replace the battery for you.
Prepare the following before replacing
the battery:
Flathead screwdriver
Small flathead screwdriver
Lithium battery CR2032
■Use a CR2032 lithium battery
●Batteries can be purchased at your Lexus
dealer, local electrical appliance shops or
camera stores.
●Replace only with the same or equivalent
type recommended by the manufacturer.
●Dispose of used batteries according to
the local laws.
NOTICE
■When cleaning the air intake vent
When cleaning the air intake vent, make
sure to only use a vacuum to suck out
dust and clogs. If a compressed air blow
gun, etc. is used to blow out dust and
clogs, the dust or clogs may be pushed
into the air intake ve nt, which may affect
the performance of the hybrid battery
(traction battery) and cause a malfunc-
tion.
■To prevent damage to the vehicle
●Do not allow water or foreign matter to
enter the air intake vent when the
cover is removed.
●Carefully handle the removed filter so
that it will not be damaged. If the filter
is damaged, have it replaced with a
new filter by your Lexus dealer.
●Make sure to reinstall the filter and
cover to their original positions after
cleaning.
●Do not install anything to the air intake
vent other than the exclusive filter for
this vehicle or use the vehicle without
the filter installed.
■If “Maintenance required for Traction
battery cooling parts See owner’s
manual” is shown on the multi-infor-
mation display
If the vehicle is continuously driven with
the warning message (indicating that
charging/discharging of the hybrid bat-
tery [traction battery] may become lim-
ited) displayed, the hybrid battery
(traction battery) may malfunction. If the
warning message is shown, clean the air
intake vent immediately.
Electronic key battery
Replace the battery with a new one
if it is depleted.
Items to prepare

4037-2. Steps to take in an emergency
7
When trouble arises
reduction in fuel tank pressure before
refueling. To prevent fuel from spilling
out, turn the cap slowly when removing
it. During refueling, fuel may spill out
from the filler opening due to air being
discharged from inside the fuel tank.
Therefore, fill the fuel tank carefully and
slowly.
■When the electronic key does not work
properly
●Make sure that the smart access system
with push-button start has not been deac-
tivated using the Remote Touch or at your
Lexus dealer. If it is off, turn the function
on.
●Check if battery-saving mode is set. If it is
set, cancel the function. (P.125)
■Unlocking the door
Use the mechanical key ( P.106) to
perform the following operations.
If the electronic key does not
o
perate properly
If communication between the
electronic key and vehicle is inter-
rupted ( P.125) or the electronic
key cannot be used because the
battery is depleted, the smart
access system with push-button
start and wireless remote control
cannot be used. In such cases, the
doors can be opened and the hybrid
system can be started by following
the procedure below.
NOTICE
■In case of a smart access system with
push-button start malfunction or
other key-related problems
Take your vehicle with all the electronic
keys provided with your vehicle, includ-
ing the card key, to your Lexus dealer.
Locking and unlocking the doors

4087-2. Steps to take in an emergency
■Starting the hybrid system when the 12-
volt battery is discharged
The hybrid system cannot be started by
push-starting.
■To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
●Turn off the headlight s, the air condition-
ing system, the audio system, etc. while
the hybrid system is off.
●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.
■Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt battery
will discharge gradua lly 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 hybrid system may be
unable to start. (The 12-volt battery
recharges automatically while the hybrid
system is operating.)
■When the 12-volt battery 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.
●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 hybrid system may not start on the
first attempt after the 12-volt battery has
recharged but will start normally after the
second attempt. This is not a malfunction.
●The power 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 power switch
off.
If you are unsure what mode the power
switch was in before the 12-volt battery discharged, be especially careful when
reconnecting the 12-volt battery.
●The power back door must be initialized.
(
P.119)
■When replacing the 12-volt battery
●Use a Central Degassing type 12-volt
battery (European Regulations).
●Use a 12-volt battery that the case size is
same as the previous one (LN1), 20 hour
rate capacity (20HR) is equivalent
(45Ah) or greater, and performance rat-
ing (CCA) is equivalent (286A) or
greater.
• If the sizes differ, the 12-volt battery can- not be properly secured.
• If an improper 12-volt battery is used, bat-
tery performance may decrease and the
hybrid system may not be able to restart.
• If the 20 hour rate capacity is low, even if
the time period where the vehicle is not
used is a short time, the 12-volt battery
may discharge and hybrid system may
not be able to start.
●Use a 12-volt battery with a handle. If a
12-volt battery without a handle is used,
removal is more difficult.
●After exchanging, firmly attach the fol-
lowing items to the exhaust hole of the 12-
volt battery.
• Confirm that the elbow is securely attached to the exhaust hose and exhaust
hole.
• Confirm that the exhaust hole plug is securely attached to the exhaust hole that
the elbow is not attached to.
• Use the elbow/exhaust hole plug included with the 12-volt battery
exchanged or the on e installed on the
battery prior to the exchange. (Depend-
ing on the 12-volt battery to be
exchanged, the exhaust hole may be
plugged.)
