1063-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors and trunk
are locked or unlocked.
• The electronic key is near the ground or  in a high place, or too close to the rear 
bumper center when the trunk is opened.
• The electronic key is on the instrument  panel, rear package tray or floor, or in the 
door pockets or glove box when the 
engine is started or engine switch modes 
are changed.
●Do not leave the electronic key on top of 
the instrument panel  or near the door 
pockets when exiting the vehicle. 
Depending on the radio wave reception 
conditions, it may be  detected by the 
antenna outside the cabin and the doors 
will become lockable from the outside, 
possibly trapping the electronic key 
inside the vehicle.
●As long as the electron ic key is within the 
effective range, the doors may be locked 
or unlocked by anyone. However, only 
the doors detecting the electronic key 
can be used to unlock the vehicle.
●Even if the electronic  key is not inside the 
vehicle, it may be possible to start the 
engine if the electronic key is near the 
window.
●The doors may unlock or lock if a large 
amount of water spla shes on the door 
handle, such as in the rain or in a car 
wash, when the electronic key is within 
the effective range. (The doors will auto-
matically be locked after approximately 
60 seconds if the d oors are not opened 
and closed.)
●If the wireless remote control is used to 
lock the doors when the electronic key is 
near the vehicle, there is a possibility that 
the door may not be unlocked by the 
entry function. (Use  the wireless remote 
control to unlock the doors.)
●When the lock operation is performed 
using the lock sensor, recognition signals 
will be shown up to two consecutive 
times. After this, no recognition signals 
will be given.
●If the door handle becomes wet while the 
electronic key is within the effective 
range, the door may lock and unlock 
repeatedly. In this case, follow the follow-
ing correction procedures to wash the  vehicle:
• Place the electronic key in a location 6 ft.  (2 m) or more away from the vehicle. 
(Take care to ensure that the key is not 
stolen.)
• Set the electronic key to battery-saving 
mode to disable the smart access system 
with push-button start. ( P.104)
●If the electronic key is inside the vehicle 
and a door handle becomes wet during a 
car wash, a message may be shown on 
the multi-information display and a 
buzzer will sound outside the vehicle. To 
turn off the alarm, lock both side doors.
●If an outside door handle is not retracted 
during a car wash, a door may be opened 
or an outside door handle may be dam-
aged. Make sure that  the outside door 
handles are retracted before using the 
car wash.
●A sudden handle operation or a handle 
operation immediately after entering the 
effective range may prevent the doors 
from being unlocked. Touch the door 
unlock sensor and check that the doors 
are unlocked before pulling the door 
handle again.
●Unlocking the vehicle may take more 
time if another electronic key is within the 
effective range.
■When the vehicle is not driven for 
extended periods
●To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not 
leave the electronic key within 6 ft. (2 m) 
of the vehicle.
●The smart access system with push-but-
ton start can be deactivated in advance.
●Setting the electronic key to battery-sav-
ing mode helps to reduce key battery 
depletion. ( P.105)
■To operate the system properly
●Make sure to carry the electronic key 
when operating the system. Do not get 
the electronic key too close to the vehicle 
when operating the system from the out-
side of the vehicle.
Depending on the position and holding 
condition of the elec tronic key, the key 
may not be detected correctly and the 
system may not operate properly. (The

alarm may go off accidentally, or the door 
lock prevention function may not oper-
ate.)
●Do not leave the electronic key inside the 
trunk.
The key confinement prevention function 
may not operate, depending on the loca-
tion of the key (the inside edge of the 
trunk), conditions (inside a metal bag, 
close to metallic objects) and the radio 
waves in the surrounding area. ( P.102)
■If an electronic key does not work prop-
erly
●If the doors cannot be locked or 
unlocked and the trunk cannot be 
opened, perform the following.
• Bring the electronic key close to the door 
handle and perform a lock or unlock 
operation.
• Bring the electronic key close to the but-
ton on the trunk ( P.101) and press the 
button.
• Use the wireless remote control.
If the doors cannot be locked or unlocked  by perform the above, use the mechanical 
key. (
P.330)

key is used while the al arm system is set, the 
warning will sound. ( P.65)
●If the engine cannot be started, refer to 
P.331
■Customization
Settings (e. g. smart access system with 
push-button start) can be changed. 
(Customizable features:  P.367)

WARNING
■Caution regarding interference with 
electronic devices
●People with implantable cardiac pace-
makers, cardiac resynchronization 
therapy-pacemakers or implantable 
cardioverter defibrillators should keep 
away from the smart access system 
with push-button start antennas. 
( P.103)
The radio waves may affect the opera-
tion of such devices. If necessary, the 
entry function can be disabled. Ask 
your Lexus dealer for details, such as 
the frequency of radio waves and tim-
ing of the emitted radio waves. Then, 
consult your doctor to see if you 
should disable the entry function.
●Users of any electrical medical device 
other than implantable cardiac pace-
makers, cardiac resynchronization 
therapy-pacemakers or implantable 
cardioverter defibrillators should con-
sult the manufacturer of the device for 
information about its operation under 
the influence of radio waves.
Radio waves could have unexpected 
effects on the operation of such medi-
cal devices.
Ask your Lexus dealer for details on dis-
abling the entry function.
