KEYS AND DOORS

KEYS
1Master keys (black) — These keys work in every lock.
For your Lexus dealer to make a new key with a
builtin transponder chip, your dealer will need one
of them.
2Valet key (gray) — This key will not open the glove
box.
3Key number plate — Keep the plate in a safe place
such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.
A transponder chip for the engine immobilizer system has been
placed in the head of the master and valet keys. These chips
are required for the system to function correctly, so be careful
not to lose these keys. If you make your own duplicate key, you
will not be able to cancel the system or start the engine.
To protect items locked in the glove box when using valet
parking, leave the valet key with the attendant. Since the side doors and back door can be locked without a
key, you should always carry a spare master key in case you
accidentally lock your keys inside the vehicle.
If you should lose your keys or if you need additional keys,
duplicates can be made by a Lexus dealer using the key
number.
We recommend writing down the key number and storing it in
a safe place.

KEYS AND DOORS
9
Flat key
As a transponder chip is built in its key case, you can start
the engine with this key.
The flat key works in every lock.
A transponder chip for the engine immobilizer system has been
placed in the key case of the flat key. This chip is required for
the system to function correctly, so be careful not to lose this
key. If you make your own duplicate key, you will not be able
to cancel the system or start the engine.
Insert your key plate in its key case as shown. We recommend
that you always carry this with you for emergency use. Do not
leave it in your vehicle.
Starting the engine using a flat key
1. Remove the key plate from the key case.
2. Insert the key plate into the ignition switch. The indicator
light keeps flashing.
3. Bring the key case closer to the ignition switch within 10
seconds as indicated by the arrow head. The indicator light
goes out. This means the engine immobilizer system is
automatically canceled. (For details, see “Engine immobilizer
system” on page 12.) You can put the key case away then. You
cannot cancel the engine immobilizer system if 10 seconds
have past after you inserted the key plate. You need to remove
the key plate from the ignition switch and try it again from the
step 2.
