3-1.Key information
The following keys are provided with
the vehicle.
Electronic keys
• Operating the smart access system with push-button start ( P.110)
• Operating the wireless remote control function
Mechanical keys
Key number plate
■When riding in an aircraft
When bringing an elec tronic 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 em it 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 hybrid sys-
tem is stopped.
●Battery-saving mode can reduce the
power consumption of electronic keys
that are not used for long periods of time.
(  P.111)
●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.346)
• The smart access system with push-but- ton start or the wireless remote control
does not operate.
• The detection area becomes smaller.
• The LED indicator on the key surface does not turn on.
You can replace the battery by yourself
(  P.346). However, as there is a danger
that the electronic key may be damaged, it
is recommended that replacement be car-
ried out by your Lexus dealer.
●To avoid serious dete rioration, do not
leave the electronic key within 3 ft. (1 m)
of the following electrical appliances that
produce a magnetic field:
•TVs
• Personal computers
• Cellular phones, cordless phones and battery chargers
• Recharging cellular ph ones or cordless
phones
•Table lamps
• Induction cookers
■Replacing the battery
 P.346
■Confirmation of the registered key
number
The number of keys already registered to
the vehicle can be confirmed. Ask your
Lexus dealer 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 disp layed but you have not
had a new electronic key registered, ask
your Lexus dealer to check if an unknown

■Conditions affecting operation
The smart access system with push-button
start uses weak radio waves. In the following
situations, the communication between the
electronic key and the vehicle may be
affected, preventing the smart access sys-
tem with push-button start, wireless remote
control and immobilizer system from oper-
ating properly.
(Ways of coping: P.388)
●When the electronic key battery is
depleted
●Near a TV tower, electric power plant,
gas station, radio stat ion, large display,
airport or other faci lity that generates
strong radio waves or electrical noise
●When the electronic key is in contact
with, or is covered by the following metal-
lic objects
• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil
inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
•Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs
●When other wireless ke ys (that emit radio
waves) are being used nearby
●When carrying the electronic key
together with the following devices that
emit radio waves
• Portable radio, cellular phone, cordless
phone or other wireless communication
device
• Another electronic ke y or a wireless key
that emits radio waves
• Personal computers or personal digital assistants (PDAs)
• Digital audio players
• Portable game systems
●If window tint with a metallic content or
metallic objects are attached to the rear
window
●When the electronic key is placed near a
battery charger or electronic devices
●When the vehicle is parked in a pay park-
ing spot where radio waves are emitted.
■Notes for the entry function
●Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (detection areas), the sys-
tem may not operate properly in the fol-
lowing cases:
• The electronic key is too close to the win-
dow or outside door handle, near the
ground, or in a high place when the doors
are locked or unlocked.
• The electronic key is near the ground or in a high place, or too close to the center
of the rear bumper when the trunk is
opened.
• The electronic key is on the instrument panel, rear package tray or floor, or in the
door pockets or glove box when the
hybrid system is started or power switch
modes are changed.
●Do not leave the electronic key on top of
the instrument panel or near the door
pockets when exiting the vehicle.
Depending on the radio wave reception
conditions, it may be detected by the
antenna outside the cabin and the doors
will become lockable from the outside,
possibly trapping the electronic key
inside the vehicle.
●As long as the electronic key is within the
effective range, the doors may be locked
or unlocked by anyone. However, only
the doors detecting the electronic key
can be used to unlock the vehicle.
●Even if the electronic key is not inside the
vehicle, it may be po ssible to start the
hybrid system if the el ectronic key is near
the window.
●The doors may unlock or lock if a large
amount of water splashes on the door
handle, such as in the rain or in a car
wash, when the electronic key is within
the effective range. (The doors will auto-
matically be locked after approximately
60 seconds if the doors are not opened
and closed.)
●If the wireless remote control is used to
lock the doors when the electronic key is
near the vehicle, there is a possibility that
the door may not be unlocked by the
entry function. (Use the wireless remote
control to unlock the doors.)
●Touching the door lock sensor while
wearing gloves may delay or prevent lock
operation. Remove the gloves and touch
the lock sensor again.
