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 it is difficult to take out the mechanical

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.)

P.330)

• 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
(

P.330). 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

Power trunk lid (if equipped)

Observe the following precautions when

operating the power trunk lid.

Failure to do so may cause serious injury.

●

Check the safety of the surrounding

area to make sure there are no obsta-

cles or anything that could cause any

of your belongings to get caught.

If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure

they are safe and let them know that

the trunk is about to open or close.

●

If the trunk closer switch is pressed

while the trunk lid is opening during

automatic operation, the trunk lid

stops opening. Take extra care when

on an incline, as the trunk lid may open

or close suddenly.
