sively. Anticipate mi stakes that other
drivers or pedestrians might make and
be ready to avoid accidents.
Driver distraction: Always give your full
attention to driving. Anything that dis-
tracts the driver, such as adjusting con-
trols, talking on a cellular phone or
reading can result in a collision with
resulting death or serious injury to you,
your occupants or others.

nications Commission (FCC) adopted
RF exposure guidelines with safety lev-
els for mobile wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the
safety standards previously set by the
following U.S. and international stan-
dards bodies.
ANSI (American National Stan-
dards Institute) C95.1 [1992]
 NCRP (National Council on Radia-
tion Protection and Measurement)
Report 86 [1986]
 ICNIRP (International Commission
on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protec-
tion) [1996]
Those standards were based on com-
prehensive and periodic evaluations of
the relevant scientific literature. Over
120 scientists, engi neers, and physi-
cians from universities, and govern-
ment health agencies and industries
reviewed the available body of
research to develop the ANSI Stan-
dard (C95.1).

Before driving
●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.
• 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.
●To avoid serious deterioration, 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 phones or cordless phones
• Table lamps
• Induction cookers
■Replacing the battery
P.281
■Confirmation of the registered key
number
The number of keys al ready registered to
the vehicle can be confirmed. Ask your
Lexus dealer for details.
NOTICE
■To prevent key damage
●Do not drop the keys, subject them to
strong shocks or bend them.
●Do not expose the keys to high tem-
peratures for long periods of time.
●Do not get the keys wet or wash them
in an ultrasonic washer etc.
●Do not attach meta llic or magnetic
materials to the keys or place the keys
close to such materials.
●Do not disassemb le the keys.
●Do not attach a sticker or anything else
to the surface of the electronic key.

produce magnetic fields, such as TVs,
audio systems and induction cookers.
■Carrying the electronic key on your
person
Carry the electronic key 3.9 in. (10 cm)
or more away from electric appliances
that are turned on. Radio waves emitted
from electric appliances within 3.9 in. (10
cm) of the electronic key may interfere
with the key, causing the key to not func-
tion properly.
■In case of a smart access system with
push-button start malfunction or
other key-rela ted problems
P.330
■When an electronic key is lost
P.329
■Handling the card key (if equipped)
●Do not apply excess force when insert-
ing the mechanical key into the card
key. Doing so may damage the card
key.
●If the battery or card key terminals get
wet, the battery may corrode. If the key
is dropped into water, or if drinking
water etc. is spilled on the key, immedi-
ately remove the battery cover and
wipe the battery and terminals. (To
remove the battery cover, lightly grasp
and pull it.) If the battery is corroded,
have your Lexus dealer replace the
battery.
●Do not crush the battery cover or use
a screwdriver to remove the battery
cover. Forcibly removing the battery
cover may bend or damage the key.
●If the battery cover is frequently
removed, the battery cover may

start uses weak radio wa ves. 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 engine immobilizer system
from operating properly.
(Ways of coping: P.330)

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 rear
bumper center when the trunk is opened.
