1-1. Key information
IS250/220d/200d_EE
The card key is not waterproof.
When required to leave a key to the vehicle with a parking attendant
Turn the trunk opener main switch off and lock the glove box as circum-
stances demand. (P. 60, 356)
Remove the mechanical key for your own use and provide the attendant
with the electronic key only.
Key number plate
Keep the plate in a safe place, not in the vehicle. In the event that a mechan-
ical key is lost, a new key can be made by any authorized Lexus dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional, using the key
number plate. (P. 515)
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 air-
craft.
To store the mechanical key in the
card key, insert it inside while
pressing the lock release button.
If the battery was removed, reinstall
the battery with the positive termi-
nal facing the Lexus emblem.

CAUTION
Caution while driving
Keep the trunk lid closed while driving.
If the trunk lid is left open, it may hit near-by objects while driving or lug-
gage in the trunk may be unexpectedly thrown out, causing an accident.
In addition, exhaust gases may enter the vehicle, causing death or a seri-
ous health hazard. Make sure to close the trunk lid before driving.
Before driving the vehicle, make sure that the trunk lid is fully closed. If
the trunk lid is not fully closed, it may open unexpectedly while driving,
causing an accident.
Never let anyone sit in the trunk. In the event of sudden braking or a colli-
sion, they are susceptible to death or serious injury.
When children are in the vehicle
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
Do not allow children to enter the trunk.
If a child is accidentally locked in the trunk, they could overheat or suffo-
cate.
Do not allow a child to open or close the trunk lid.
Doing so may cause the trunk lid to operate unexpectedly, or cause the
child’s hands, head, or neck to be caught by the closing trunk lid.

Before driving
IS250/220d/200d_EE
Your preferred driving position (the position of the driver's seat, steer-
ing wheel and outside rear view mirrors) can be memorized and
recalled with the touch of a button. It is also possible to set this func-
tion to activate automatically when the doors are unlocked.
Three different driving positions can be entered into memory.
Entering a position to memory
Switch to IGNITION ON mode.
Adjust the driver’s seat, steering wheel, and outside rear
view mirrors to the desired positions.
Push the “SET” button, then
within 3 seconds push button
“1”, “2” or “3” until the sig-
nal beeps.
If the selected button has
already been preset, the pre-
viously recorded position
will be overwritten.
Recalling the memorized position
Vehicles with an automatic transmission: Check that the shift
lever is set in P.
Vehicles with a manual transmission: Check that the parking
brake is set.
Switch to IGNITION ON mode.
Push button “1”, “2” or “3”
to recall the memorized posi-
tion.

Before driving
IS250/220d/200d_EE
The mirrors can be adjusted when
The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in ACCESSORY or IGNITION
ON mode.
When the mirrors are fogged up
Turn on the mirror defoggers to defog the mirrors. (P. 264)
One-touch adjustment of the mirror angle
(vehicles with driving position memory)
A desired mirror face angle can be entered to memory and adjusted with the
touch of a button. (P. 6 6 )
Linked mirror function when reversing (vehicles with driving position
memory)
The outside rear view mirrors will automatically angle downwards when the
vehicle is reversing in order to give a better view of the ground. However,
this function will not operate when the mirror select switch is in the neutral
position (between “L” and “R”).
Auto anti-glare function (vehicles with auto anti-glare mirror)
When the anti-glare inside rear view mirror is set to automatic mode, the
outside rear view mirrors will activate in conjunction with the anti-glare
inside rear view mirror to reduce reflected light. (P. 8 2 )
Rain clearing mirrors (if equipped)
When water droplets collects on the mirror surface, for example when it
rains, the rain clearing (hydrophilic) effect of the mirrors causes the droplets
to be spread out into a film making the rear view clearer. In the following
cases, the rain clearing effect will be reduced temporarily, but will return
after 1 or 2 days' exposure to direct sunlight.
After wiping dirt off the mirrors
When the mirrors fog up
After waxing your vehicle in an automatic car wash
After your vehicle has been parked for a long period in underground
parking lots, etc. where there is no direct sunlight
