Cautions during setting up the dis-

play

As the hybrid system needs to be operat-

ing during setting up the display, ensure

that the vehicle is parked in a place with

adequate ventilation. In a closed area

ing harmful carbon monoxide (CO) may

collect and enter the vehicle. This may

lead to death or a serious health hazard.

3-1.Key information

The following keys are provided with
the vehicle.

Electronic keys

• Operating the smart access system with

push-button start (



P.126)

• 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.126)

■

Card key (if equipped)

●

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.

●

The card key is not waterproof.

■

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 hybrid sys-

tem stops.

●

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.128)

●

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.359)

• The smart access system with push-but-

ton start or the wireless remote control

does not operate.

• The detection area becomes smaller.

You can replace the battery by yourself
(



P.359). However, as there is a danger

that the electronic key may be damaged, it
is recommended that replacement be car-
ried out by your Lexus dealer.

●

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

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 10 days after a new electronic key

has been registered. If this message is dis-

played but you have not had a new elec-

tronic key registered, ask your Lexus dealer

to check if an unknown electronic key

(other than those in your possession) has

been registered.

NOTICE

■

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.
