Vehicle customization

●

When the speed linked door locking function and shift position linked door locking

function are both on, the door lock operates as follows.
• When shifting the shift lever to any position other than P, all the doors will be locked.

• If the vehicle is started with all the doors locked, the speed linked door locking func-

tion would not operate.

• If the vehicle is started with any door unlocked, the speed linked door locking func-

tion will operate.

●

When the smart access system with push-button start is off, the selecting door to

unlock cannot be customized.

●

When the doors remain closed after unlocking the doors and the automatic door lock

function (time elapsed before the automatic door lock function is activated if a door is

not opened after being unlocked) activates, the signals will be generated in accordance

with the operation signal (buzzers) and the operation signal (emergency flashers) set-

tings.

●

Some settings can be changed using a switch or the Remote Touch screen. If a setting is

changed using a switch, the changed setting will not be reflected on the Remote Touch

screen until the engine switch is turned off and then to IGNITION ON mode.

■

When customizing using the Remote Touch
Stop the vehicle in a safe place, apply the parking brake, and shift the shift lever to P. Also,

to prevent battery discharge, leave the engine running while customizing the features.

WARNING

■

During customization
As the engine needs to be running during customization, ensure that the vehicle is

parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a closed area such as a garage, exhaust

gases including harmful carbon monoxide (CO) may collect and enter the vehicle. This

may lead to death or a serious health hazard.

NOTICE

■

During customization
To prevent battery discharge, ensure that the engine is running while customizing fea-

tures.

If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or
could cause injury or death, you should immediately inform the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying the
Lexus Division of Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc. (Toll-free: 1-800-25-

If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and if it
finds that a safety defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall
and remedy campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved in indi-
vidual problems between you, your dealer, or Lexus Division of Toyota
Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc.
To contact NHTSA, you may call the Vehicle Safety Hotline toll-free at 
1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153); go to 

http://www.safercar.gov
