■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
<hybrid system> is stopped.
●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.349) • The smart entry & start system or the wireless remote control does not oper-
ate. • 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 1 m (3 ft.) 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
 P.349
■Confirmation of the registered key number
The number of keys already registered to the vehicle can be confirmed. Ask any
authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus autho- rized repairer, or any reliable repairer 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 displayed but you have not
had a new electronic key registered, ask any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer
to check if an unknown electronic key (other than those in your possession) has been registered.

a lock cylinder, turn it over and re-attempt
to insert it.
After using the mechanical key, store it in
the electronic key. Carry the mechanical
key together with the electronic key. If the
electronic key battery is depleted or the

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.
●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.
■Carrying the electronic key on your person
Carry the electronic key 10 cm (3.9 in.) or more away from electric appliances
that are turned on. Radio waves emitted from electric appliances within 10 cm (3.9 in.) of the electronic key may inter-
fere with the key, causing the key to not function properly.
