WARNING
●Do not attach anything to or lean any-
thing against areas such as the dash-
board, steering wheel pad and lower
portion of the instrument panel.
These items can become projectiles
when the SRS driver, front passenger
and knee airbags deploy.
●Do not attach anything to areas such
as a door, windshield glass and side
door glass.
●If a vinyl cover is put on the area where
the SRS knee airbag will deploy, be
sure to remove it.
●Do not use seat accessories which
cover the parts where the SRS side air-
bags inflate as they may interfere with
inflation of the SRS airbags. Such
accessories may prevent the side air-
bags from activating correctly, disable
the system or cause the side airbags to
inflate accidentally, resulting in death
or serious injury.
●Do not strike or apply significant levels
of force to the area of the SRS airbag
components or the doors.
Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to
malfunction.
●Do not touch any of the component
parts immediately after the SRS air-
bags have deployed (inflated) as they
may be hot.
●If breathing becomes difficult after the
SRS airbags have deployed, open a
door or window to allow fresh air in, or
leave the vehicle if it is safe to do so.
Wash off any residue as soon as possi-
ble to prevent skin irritation.
●If the areas where the SRS airbags are
stored, such as the steering wheel pad,
are damaged or cracked, have them
replaced by your Lexus dealer.
●Do not place anything, such as a cush-
ion, on the front passenger’s seat.
Doing so will disperse the passenger’s
weight, which prevents the sensor
from detecting the passenger’s weight
properly. As a result, the SRS front air-
bags for the front passenger may not
deploy in the event of a collision.
■Modification and disposal of SRS air-
bag system components
Do not dispose of your vehicle or per-
form any of the following modifications
without consulting your Lexus dealer.
The SRS airbags may malfunction or
deploy (inflate) accidentally, causing
death or serious injury.
●Installation, removal, disassembly and
repair of the SRS airbags
●Repairs, modifications, removal or
replacement of the steering wheel,
instrument panel, dashboard, seats or
seat upholstery, door panels, door
trims or door speakers
●Modifications to the door panel (such
as making a hole in it)
●Repairs or modifications of the front
fender, or front bumper
●Installation of a grille guard (bull bars,
kangaroo bar, etc.), snow plows,
winches or roof luggage carrier

Before operating
After operating
■Active roll bar precautions
●Before scrapping your vehicle, make
sure to contact your Lexus dealer.
●If the active roll bar operates when the
soft top roof is opened, the soft top roof
cannot be closed.
●The active roll bar cannot be reused once
it has operated. Have it replaced by your
Lexus dealer.
■Active roll bar operational conditions
●The active roll bar operate regardless of
the opening/closing state of the soft top
roof.
●The active roll bar will operates in the
event of an impact that exceeds the set
threshold level (the level of force corre-
sponding to an approximately 12 - 18
mph [20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with
a fixed wall that does not move or
deform, or the impact force produced by
an approximately 3300 lb. [1500 kg]
vehicle colliding with the vehicle cabin
from a direction perpendicular to the
vehicle orientation at an approximate speed of 12 - 18 mph [20 - 30 km/h]).
However, this threshol d velocity will be
considerably higher in the following situa-
tions:
• If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which can
move or deform on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an underride
collision, such as a collision in which the
front of the vehicle underrides, or goes
under, the bed of a truck
●The active roll bar operates when the
vehicle rolls over.
●The active roll bar may also operate if a
serious impact occurs to the underside of
the vehicle, such as in the following situa-
tion.
•Hitting a curb, edge of pavement or hard
surface
• Falling into or jumping over a deep hole
• Landing hard or falling
• The vehicle is leaning considerably to one side.
• The vehicle is subjected to certain types
of severe impacts when the vehicle has
slided sideways and collided with a curb,
etc.
■Conditions under whic h the active roll
bar may not operate
The active roll bar does not generally oper-
ate if the vehicle is involved in a rear colli-
sion, or if it is involved in a low-speed frontal
or side collision. But, whenever a collision of
any type causes sufficient forward deceler-
ation of the vehicle, op eration of the active
roll bar may occur.
●Collision from the rear
●Collision from the side to the vehicle
body other than the passenger compart-
ment
●Collision from the side at an angle
■When the active roll bar operates
The soft top roof cannot be opened or
closed while the active roll bar is operating.
■Warning message
If “Active Roll Bar System Malfunction Visit
Your Dealer” is displayed on the multi-
information display, have the vehicle

923-1. Key information
3-1.Key information
The following keys are provided with
the vehicle.
Electronic keys
• Operating the smart access system with push-button start ( P.103)
• 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.103)
■Card key (if equipped)
●The card key is not waterproof.
●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.
■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
accidentally. 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 from one year
to one year and a half.)
●If the battery becomes low, an alarm will
sound in the cabin when the engine is
stopped.
●Electronic keys that will not be used for
long periods of time can be set to the bat-
tery-saving mode in advance. ( P.105)
●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.297)
• 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
