INTRODUCTION
The REMOTE ENGINE STARTER allows you to start your engine from outside the vehicle. It utilizes
your vehicle’s keyless entry remote, so there is no need to carry around an extra remote. The REMOTE
ENGINE STARTER is operated the same way for vehicles equipped with or without the Smart Entry /
Push Start system; simply push the remote’s LOCK button in a quick, two step sequence. In addition, the
REMOTE ENGINE STARTER can activate the heater or air conditioner according to your preset temperature controls, providing you with a comfortable cabin upon entry. As an added convenience, the
REMOTE ENGINE STARTER can also activate the defroster (when preset) to clear up the windshield
during cold weather.
To ensure your safety, and the safety of anyone near the vehicle, the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER is
designed to shut the engine off when it detects any attempt to enter or move the vehicle after a remote
engine start. Please consult your Lexus dealer for more details.
NOTE: To utilize the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER, your vehicle must have an automatic transmission;
it cannot be used for manual transmission models. The transmission range for remote start may be
shorter than the remote’s basic keyless entry operation. Range can also be affected by the surrounding
environment. Laws in some communities require that the vehicle be within view of anyone using the
REMOTE ENGINE STARTER. In some states, use of the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER may violate
state or local laws. Before using the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER, check your state and local laws.
For any questions or concerns about the REMOTE ENGINE STARTER, please call Lexus Customer
Relations at (800)255-3987.
