Operation of each component
CT200h_OM_OM76102E_(EE)
To take out the mechanical key:
Electronic keys: Slide the release
lever and take the key out.
Card key: Press the lock release
button and take the key out.
The mechanical key can only be
inserted in one direction, as the key
only has grooves on one side. If the
key cannot be inserted in a lock cyl-
inder, 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 entry func-
tion does not operate properly, you
will need the mechanical key. (P.
621)
Panic mode (if equipped)
Using the mechanical key
When is pressed for longer than about
one second, an alarm will sound intermit-
tently and the vehicle lights will flash to
deter any person from trying to break into
or damage your vehicle.

1283-1. Key information
CT200h_OM_OM76102E_(EE)
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 it is difficult to take out the mechanical key, push down the lock release but-
ton using a pen tip etc. If it is still difficult to pull it out, use a coin etc.
The card key is not waterproof.
When required to leave the vehicle’s key with a parking attendant
Lock the glove box as circumstances demand. (P. 465)
Remove the mechanical key for your own use and provide the attendant with the
electronic key only.
If you lose your mechanical keys
New genuine mechanical keys can be made by any authorized Lexus dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional using another
mechanical key and the key number stamped on your key number plate. Keep the
plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.
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 aircraft.
To store the mechanical key in the card
key, insert it while pressing the lock
release button.
If the battery cover is not installed and the
battery falls out or if the battery was
removed because the key got wet, reinstall
the battery with the positive terminal fac-

year and a half.)
If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin when the hybrid
system stops. (P. 589)
As the electronic key always receives radio waves, the battery will become

•TVs
• Personal computers
• Cellular phones, cordless phones and battery chargers
• Recharging cellular phones or cordless phones
• Induction cookers
• Table lamps

Battery-saving function (vehicles with entry function)
The battery-saving function will be activated in order to prevent the electronic
key battery and the 12-volt battery from being discharged while the vehicle is not
in operation for a long time.

If the smart entry & start system has not been used for 14 days or longer, the
doors cannot be unlocked at any doors except the driver’s door. In this case,
take hold of the driver’s door handle, or use the wireless remote control or the
mechanical key, to unlock the doors.
Conditions affecting operation
The smart entry & start system, wireless remote control and immobilizer system
use weak radio waves. In the following situations, the communication between
the electronic key and the vehicle may be affected, preventing the smart entry &
start system, wireless remote control and immobilizer system from operating
properly.
(Ways of coping: P. 621)
When the electronic key battery is depleted
