■When required to leave the vehicle’s key with a parking attendant
Turn the trunk opener main switch off and lock the glove box as circumstances demand.
(→ P. 1 4 8 , 3 9 0 )
Remove the mechanical key for your own use and provide the attendant with the elec-
tronic 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 the other 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 but-
tons on the electronic key while inside the ai rcraft 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.
■Electronic key battery depletion

half.)
●If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin when the hybrid system
stops. ( →P. 5 1 5 )
●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 elec-
tronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery when necessary. ( →P. 4 5 1 )
• The smart entry & start system or the wireless remote control does not operate.
• The detection area becomes smaller.
• The LED indicator on the key surface does not turn on.
●To avoid serious deterioration, do not leave the electronic key within 1 m (3 ft.) of the
following electrical appliances that produce a magnetic field:
•TVs

• Recharging cellular phones or cordless phones
• Table lamps
• Induction cookers
■Replacing the battery
→ P. 4 5 1
■Confirmation of the registered key number
The number of keys already registered to the vehicle can be confirmed. Ask any autho-
rized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional for
details.
