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.

●

If the battery becomes low, an alarm will

sound in the cabin when the engine is

stopped.

●

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.114)

●

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.

• 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.

●

To avoid serious deterioration, do not

leave the electronic key within 3 ft. (1 m)

of the following electrical appliances that

produce a magnetic field:

• TVs

• Personal computers

• Cellular phones, cordless phones and

battery chargers

• Recharging cellular phones or cordless

phones

• Table lamps

• Induction cookers

■

Replacing the battery

■

Confirmation of the registered key

number

The number of keys already registered to

the vehicle can be confirmed. Ask your

Lexus dealer for details.

■

If “A New Key has been Registered

Contact Your Dealer for Details” is

shown on the multi-information display

This message will be displayed each time

the driver’s door is opened when the doors

are unlocked from the outside for approxi-

mately one week after a new electronic key

has been registered.

If this message is displayed but you have not

had a new electronic key registered, ask

your Lexus dealer to check if an unknown

electronic key (other than those in your

possession) has been registered.

To prevent key damage

●

Do not drop the keys, subject them to

strong shocks or bend them.

●

Do not expose the keys to high tem-

peratures for long periods of time.

●

Do not get the keys wet or wash them

in an ultrasonic washer, etc.

●

Do not attach metallic or magnetic

materials to the keys or place the keys

close to such materials.

●

Do not disassemble the keys.

●

Do not attach a sticker or anything else

to the surface of the electronic key.

●

Do not place the keys near objects that

produce magnetic fields, such as TVs,

audio systems and induction cookers,

or medical electrical equipment, such

as low-frequency therapy equipment.

■

Carrying the electronic key on your

person

Carry the electronic key 3.9 in. (10 cm)

or more away from electric appliances

that are turned on. Radio waves emitted

from electric appliances within 3.9 in. (10

cm) of the electronic key may interfere

with the key, causing the key to not func-

tion properly.

incline, whether there is enough space

for a door to open and whether a strong

wind is blowing. When opening or clos-

ing the door, hold the door handle tightly

to prepare for any unpredictable move-

ment.

Power back door

The power back door can be
opened using the power back door
opener switch, smart access system
with push-button start or wireless
remote control.

WARNING

Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may result in death or

serious injury.

■

Before driving the vehicle

Before driving the vehicle, make sure

that the power back door is fully closed. If

the power back door is not fully closed, it

may open unexpectedly while driving,

causing an accident.

■

Caution while driving

●

Keep the power back door closed

while driving.

If the power back door is left open, it may

hit nearby objects while driving or lug-

gage may be unexpectedly thrown out,

causing an accident.
In addition, exhaust gases may enter the

vehicle, causing death or a serious health

hazard. Make sure to close the power

back door before driving.

●

Never let anyone sit in the luggage

compartment. In the event of sudden

braking, sudden swerving or a colli-

sion, they are susceptible to death or

serious injury.

■

When children are in the vehicle

Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may result in death or

serious injury.

●

Do not allow children to play in the lug-

gage compartment.

If a child is accidentally locked in the lug-

gage compartment, they could have heat

exhaustion or other injuries.

●

Do not allow a child to open or close

the power back door.

Doing so may cause the power back

door to move unexpectedly, or cause the

child’s hands, arms, head, or neck to be

caught by the closing power back door.

■

Operating the power back door

Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may cause parts of the

body to be caught, resulting in death or

serious injury.

●

Remove any heavy loads, such as snow

and ice, from the power back door

before opening it. Failure to do so may

cause the power back door to sud-

denly shut again after it is opened.

●

When opening or closing the power

back door, thoroughly check to make

sure the surrounding area is safe.

●

If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure

they are safe and let them know that

the power back door is about to open

or close.

●

Use caution when opening or closing

the power back door in windy weather

as it may move abruptly in strong wind.

●

The power back door may suddenly

shut if it is not opened fully. It is more

difficult to open or close the back door

on an incline than on a level surface, so

beware of the back door unexpectedly

opening or closing by itself. Make sure

that the back door is fully open and

secure before using the luggage com-

partment.
