KEYS
1
The master key works in every lock.
2
The subkey will not open the trunk, trunk main switch
and the glovebox.
3
Keep the key number plate in a safe place such as
your wallet, not in the vehicle.
To protect things locked in the trunk or glovebox when you
have your vehicle parked, leave the subkey with the attendant.
Since the doors and trunk lid 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 require replacement or additional keys for any
reason, contact your Lexus dealer.
You should also put a copy of the key number with your
important papers.
Insert your flat key in its key case as shown. We recommend
that you always carry this with you as a spare. Do not leave it
in your vehicle.
NOTICE

Do not let the key case become bent as the key may
fall out or become bent also.

The flat key is designed for emergency use only, so
do not use it regularly instead of the other master
keys.

Locking / Unlocking the doors
When you push the “LOCK” button on the transmitter, all
the doors can be locked from outside the vehicle.
At this time, you can hear one beep. However, when you push
the “LOCK” button with any door not closed securely, the
buzzer sounds for 10 seconds or until all the doors are closed
securely. If the key is in the ignition switch, locking cannot be
done.
To make sure whether all the doors were locked or not, push
the “LOCK” button once again. If they were already locked, the
headlights and tail lights will flash.
When you push the “UNLOCK” button, the driver’s door
is unlocked. Pushing that button once again within 3
seconds from the first push, all other doors also unlock.
At this time, two beeps sound. Together with the activation of
unlocking, the interior light comes on for 15 seconds if the
interior light switch is in “DOOR” position. For further
information, see “Interior lights” on page 37.
You have 30 seconds to open a door after using the remote
unlock feature. If a door is not opened by then, all doors will
automatically relock.
When any door is unlocked, pushing the “LOCK” button locks
all the doors. To unlock the doors, push the “UNLOCK” button.
Continued pushing of the “LOCK” and “UNLOCK” buttons will
not cause repeated locking and unlocking of the doors. To
reverse the operation performed by the remote control feature,
release the first button and then push another button.
