Emergency towing
FrontRear
Emergency towing eyeletsEmergency towing eyelets
If towing service is not available in an emergency, your
vehicle may be temporarily towed by a cable secured to
one of the eyelets under the front or rear of the vehicle.
A driver must be in the vehicle to steer it and operate the
brakes. Towing in this manner may be done only on
hard-surfaced roads for a short distance and at low speeds.
Also, the wheels, axles, drive train, steering and brakes must
all be in good condition.
Before towing, release the parking brake and put the
transmission in neutral (manual) or “N” (automatic). The
ignition key must be in “ACC” (engine off) or “ON” (engine
running).CAUTION:
If the engine is not running, the power assist for the brakes
and steering will not work so steering and braking will be
much harder than usual.
IF THE MOON ROOF
DOES NOT CLOSE
1. Pull off the moon roof control cover.

2. Unscrew the screw inside.
A special crank-shaped screwdriver for turning the screw and
drive shaft can be found in your tool bag.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to lose this screw or the washer as the
moon roof will not operate electrically without them.

Close
3. To close: Close the moon roof by hand as far as it will
go. Then insert the screwdriver into the hole and turn the
drive shaft clockwise until the moon roof is completely
closed.
To tilt down: Insert the screwdriver into the hole and turn
the drive shaft counterclockwise until the rear end of the
moon roof is completely lowered.
Be sure to have the system checked by your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible.
IF YOU LOSE YOUR KEYS OR
LOCK YOURSELF OUT
If you need replacement of an ignition key, contact your
Lexus dealer.
See the suggestion given in “Keys” on page 8.
If your keys are locked in the vehicle and you cannot get a
duplicate, many Lexus dealers can assist you. If you must
break a window to get in, we suggest breaking the smallest
side window because it is the least expensive to replace. Be
extremely cautious to avoid cuts from the glass.
