KEYS AND DOORS
8
KEYS

Master key ± The master key works in every lock.
Subkey ± The subkey will not open the trunk, trunk
main switch and the glovebox.
Key number plate ± Keep the plate in a safe place
such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.
To protect things locked in the trunk or glovebox when you
have your vehicle parked, leave the subkey with the
attendant.
Since the doors and trunk lid can be locked without a key, you
should always carry a spare master key in case you
accidentally lock your keys inside the vehicle.
If you should require replacement or additional keys for any
reason, contact your Lexus dealer.
You should also put a copy of the key number with your
important papers.
Insert your flat key in its key case as shown. We recommend
that you always carry this with you as a spare. Do not leave
it in your vehicle.
NOTICE
Do not let the key case become bent as the key may
fall out or become bent also.
The flat key is designed for emergency use only, so
do not use it regularly instead of the other master
keys.

The operational range of the wireless remote control is

Avoid putting them in water.
Locking/Unlocking the doors
When you push the ªLOCKº button on the transmitter,
all the doors can be locked from outside the vehicle.
At this time, you can hear one beep. However, when you
push the ªLOCKº button with any door not closed securely,
the buzzer sounds for 10 seconds or until all the doors are
closed securely. If the key is in the ignition switch, locking
cannot be done.
To make sure whether all the doors were locked or not, push
the ªLOCKº button once again. If they were already locked,
the headlights and tail lights will flash.
When you push the ªUNLOCKº button, the driver's
door is unlocked. Pushing that button once again
within 3 seconds from the first push, all other doors
also unlock.
At this time, two beeps sound. Together with the activation
of unlocking, the interior light comes on for 15 seconds if the
interior light switch is in ªDOORº position. For further
information, see ªInterior lightsº on page 37.
You have 30 seconds to open a door after using the remote
unlock feature. If a door is not opened by then, all the doors
will automatically relock.
Continued pushing of the ªLOCKº or ªUNLOCKº buttons will
not cause repeated locking or unlocking of the doors. To
reverse the operation performed by the remote control
feature, release the first button and then push another
button.
