Maintenance and care
■After recharging/reconnecting the 12-volt battery
The engine may not start. Follow the procedure below to initialize the system.
Shift the shift lever to P.
Open and close any of the doors.
Restart the engine.
●Unlocking the doors using the smart access system with push-button start may not
be possible immediately after reconnecting the 12-volt battery. If this happens, use
the wireless remote control or the me chanical key to lock/unlock the doors.
●Start the engine with the “START STOP ENGINE” switch in ACCESSORY mode.
The engine may not start with the “START STOP ENGINE” switch turned off. How-
ever, the engine will operate normally from the second attempt.
●The “START STOP ENGINE” switch mode is recorded by the vehicle. If the 12-volt
battery is reconnected, the vehicle will return the “START STOP ENGINE” switch
mode to the status it was in before the 12-volt battery was disconnected. Make sure
to turn off the engine before disconnect the 12-volt battery. Take extra care when
connecting the 12-volt battery if the “START STOP ENGINE” switch mode prior to
discharge is unknown.
If the engine will not start even after mu ltiple attempts, contact your Lexus dealer.
CAUTION
■Chemicals in the 12-volt battery
Batteries contain poisonous and corrosive sulfuric acid and may produce hydro-
gen gas which is flammable and explosive. To reduce the risk of death or serious
injury, take the following precautions while working on or near the 12-volt battery:
●Do not cause sparks by touching the 12-volt battery terminals with tools.
●Do not smoke or light a match near the 12-volt battery.
●Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothes.
●Never inhale or swallow electrolyte.
●Wear protective safety glasses when working near the 12-volt battery.
●Keep children away from the 12-volt battery.

■Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt battery will discharge gradually even when the
vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of certain elec-
trical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the 12-volt battery may dis-
charge, and the engine may be unable to start. (The 12-volt battery recharges
automatically during driving.)
■When recharging or replacing the 12-volt battery
●Make sure that the key is not inside the vehicle when recharging or replacing the
12-volt battery. The key may be locked in the vehicle if the alarm is activated.
(  P. 8 9 )
●In some cases, it may not be possible to unlock the doors using the smart access
system with push-button start when the 12-volt battery is discharged. Use the wire-
less remote control or the mechanical key to lock or unlock the doors.
●The engine may not start on the first atte mpt after the 12-volt battery has recharged
but will start normally after the second attempt. This is not a malfunction.
●The “START STOP ENGINE” switch mode is memorized by the vehicle. When the
12-volt battery is reconnected, the system will return to the mode it was in before
the 12-volt battery was discharged. Before disconnecting the 12-volt battery, turn
the “START STOP ENGINE” switch off.
If you are unsure what mode the “START STOP ENGINE” switch was in before the
12-volt battery discharged, be especially careful when reconnecting the 12-volt
battery.
CAUTION
■Avoiding 12-volt battery fires or explosions
Observe the following precautions to prev ent accidentally igniting the flammable
gas that may be emitted from the 12-volt battery:
●Make sure each jumper cable is connected to the correct terminal and that it is
not unintentionally in contact with any other than the intended terminal.
●Do not allow the other end of the jumper cable connected to the “+” terminal to
come into contact with any other parts or metal surfaces in the area, such as
brackets or unpainted metal.
●Do not allow the + and - clamps of the jumper cables to come into contact with
each other.
●Do not smoke, use matches, cigarette lighters or allow open flame near the 12-
volt battery.
