For your information

Main Owner’s Manual
Please note that this manual applies to all models and explains all equipment, including options. Therefore, you may find some explanations for equipment not installed on your vehicle.
All specifications provided in this man­ual are current at the time of printing. However, because of the Lexus policy of continual product improvement, we reserve the right to make changes at any time without notice.
Depending on specifications, the vehi­cle shown in the illustrations may differ from your vehicle in terms of color and equipment.
Accessories, spare parts and modifi­cation of your Lexus
A wide variety of non-genuine spare parts and accessories for Lexus vehi­cles are currently available in the mar­ket. Using these spare parts and accessories which are not genuine Lexus products may adversely affect the safety of your vehicle, even though these parts may be approved by cer­tain authorities in your country. Toyota Motor Corporation therefore cannot accept any liability or guarantee spare parts and accessories which are not genuine Lexus products, nor for replacement or installation involving such parts.
This vehicle should not be modified with non-genuine Lexus products. Modification with non-genuine Lexus products could affect its performance, safety or durability, and may even vio­late governmental regulations. In addi­tion, damage or performance problems resulting from the modifica­tion may not be covered under war­ranty.
Installation of an RF-transmitter sys­tem
The installation of an RF-transmitter system in your vehicle could affect electronic systems such as:
Multiport fuel injection sys-
tem/sequential multiport fuel injec­tion system
Lexus Safety System + A
Lexus Safety System +
Anti-lock brake system
Vehicle dynamics integrated man-
agement
SRS airbag system
Seat belt pretensioner system
Be sure to check with your Lexus dealer for precautionary measures or special instructions regarding installa­tion of an RF-transmitter system.
Further information regarding fre­quency bands, power levels, antenna positions and installation provisions for the installation of RF-transmitters, is available on request at your Lexus dealer.

Vehicle data recordings Event data recorder
Not for Reproduction
7
The vehicle is equipped with sophisti­cated computers that will record cer­tain data, such as:
The recorded data varies according to the vehicle grade level and options with which it is equipped.
These computers do not record con­versations or sounds, and only record images outside of the vehicle in certain situations.
• Engine speed / Electric motor speed (traction motor speed)
• Accelerator status
• Brake status
• Vehicle speed
• Operation status of the driving assist systems, such as the ABS and pre-collision system
Data usage
Lexus may use the data recorded in this computer to diagnose malfunctions, con­duct research and development, and improve quality.
Lexus will not disclose the recorded data to a third party except:
• With the consent of the vehicle owner or
with the consent of the lessee if the vehi­cle is leased
• In response to an official request by the
police, a court of law or a government agency
• For use by Lexus in a lawsuit
• For research purposes where the data is
not tied to a specific vehicle or vehicle owner
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main pur­pose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an airbag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynam­ics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. However, data may not be recorded depending on the severity and type of a crash.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE: EDR dat a are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situa­tion occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving condi­tions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired dur­ing a crash investigation.
Page 10

WARNING
Not for Reproduction
To read data recorded by an EDR, spe­cial equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.
Disclosure of the EDR data
Lexus will not disclose the data recorded in an EDR to a third party except when:
• An agreement from the vehicle’s owner (or the lessee for a leased vehicle) is obtained
• In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a government agency
• For use by Lexus in a lawsuit
However, if necessary, Lexus may:
• Use the data for research on vehicle safety performance
• Disclose the data to a third party for research purposes without disclosing information about the specific vehicle or vehicle owner
Scrapping of your Lexus
The SRS airbag, seat belt pretensioner devices and Pop Up Hood system in your Lexus contain explosive chemi­cals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags, seat belt pretensioners and Pop Up Hood micro gas generators left as they are, this may cause an acci­dent such as fire. Be sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag, seat belt pretensioner and Pop Up Hood micro gas generators removed and disposed
of by a qualified service shop or by your Lexus dealer before you scrap your vehicle.
General precautions while driving
Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehicle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and reduce coordina­tion, which could lead to an accident that could result in death or serious injury.
Defensive driving: Always drive defen­sively. Anticipate mistakes that other drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents.
Driver distraction: Always give your full attention to driving. Anything that dis­tracts the driver, such as adjusting con­trols, talking on a cellular phone or reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you, your occupants or others.
General precaution regarding chil­dren’s safety
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral. There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with the windows, the moon roof, or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.

Before driving

tion.
Observe the following before start­ing off in the vehicle to ensure safety of driving.
Installing floor mats
Use only floor mats designed specifi­cally for vehicles of the same model and model year as your vehicle. Fix them securely in place onto the carpet.
1 Insert the retaining hooks (clips)
into the floor mat eyelets.
2 Turn the upper knob of each retain-
ing hook (clip) to secure the floor mats in place.
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may cause the driver’s floor mat to slip, possibly interfering with the pedals while driving. An unexpect­edly high speed may result or it may become difficult to stop the vehicle. This could lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
When installing the driver’s floor mat
Do not use floor mats designed for other models or different model year vehicles, even if they are Lexus Genu­ine floor mats.
Only use floor mats designed for the driver’s seat.
Always install the floor mat securely using the retaining hooks (clips) pro­vided.
Do not use two or more floor mats on top of each other.
Do not place the floor mat bot­tom-side up or upside-down.
Before driving
Check that the floor mat is securely fixed in the correct place with all the provided retaining hooks (clips). Be especially careful to perform this check after cleaning the floor.
Always align the marks .
The shape of the retaining hooks (clips) may differ from that shown in the illustra-
A
With the engine stopped and the shift position in P, fully depress each pedal to the floor to make sure it does not interfere with the floor mat.

For safe driving

WARNING
A

D
Not for Reproduction
For safe driving, adjust the seat and mirror to an appropriate position before driving.
Correct driving posture
Adjust the angle of the seatback so that you are sitting straight up and so that you do not have to lean for­ward to steer. (P.112)
Adjust the seat so that you can depress the pedals fully and so that your arms bend slightly at the elbow when gripping the steering wheel. (P.112)
Lock the head restraint in place with the center of the head restraint closest to the top of your ears. (P.129)
Wear the seat belt correctly. (P.26)
1-1. For safe use
Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving. Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback. A cushion may prevent correct pos­ture from being achieved, and reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint.
Do not place anything under the front seats. Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an accident and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.
Always observe the legal speed limit when driving on public roads.
When driving over long distances, take regular breaks before you start to feel tired. Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while driving, do not force yourself to con­tinue driving and take a break immedi­ately.
Correct use of the seat belts
Make sure that all occupants are wear­ing their seat belts before driving the vehicle. (P.26) Use a child restraint system appropri­ate for the child until the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt. (P.42)

Seat belts

Make sure that all occupants are wearing their seat belts before driv­ing the vehicle.
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident. Failure to do so may cause death or seri­ous injury.
Wearing a seat belt
Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.
Always wear a seat belt properly.
Each seat belt should be used by one person only. Do not use a seat belt for more than one person at once, includ­ing children.
Lexus recommends that children be seated in the rear seat and always use a seat belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system.
To achieve a proper seating position, do not recline the seat more than nec­essary. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting up straight and well back in the seats.
Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm.
Always wear your seat belt low and snug across your hips.

The main SRS airbag system components are shown above. The SRS airbag sys­tem is controlled by the airbag sensor assembly. As the airbags deploy, a chemical reaction in the inflators quickly fills the airbags with non-toxic gas to help restrain the motion of the occupants.
If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
Slight abrasions, burns, bruising etc., may be sustained from SRS airbags, due to the extremely high speed deployment (infla­tion) by hot gases.
A loud noise and white powder will be emitted.
Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) as well as the seats, parts of the front and rear pillars, and roof side rails, may be hot for several minutes. The airbag itself may also be hot.
The windshield may crack.

PCS-linked SRS airbag deployment control (vehicles with Lexus Safety Sys­tem + A)
If the PCS (Pre-Collision System) deter­mines that the possibility of a side collision is high, the SRS side and curtain shield airbags will be prepared to operate.
SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS front airbags/SRS seat cushion airbags)
The SRS front airbags and SRS seat cush­ion airbags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the set threshold
level (the level of force corresponding to an approximately 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph] frontal collision with a fixed wall that does not move or deform).
However, this threshold velocity will be considerably higher in the following situa­tions:
• If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which can move or deform on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an underride collision, such as a collision in which the front of the vehicle underrides, or goes under, the bed of a truck
Depending on the type of collision, it is possible that only the seat belt pretensioners will activate.
The SRS seat cushion airbags on the rear seat will not operate if the occupant is not wearing a seat belt.
SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS side and curtain shield airbags)
The SRS side and curtain shield airbags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to the impact force produced by an approximately 1500 kg [3300 lb.] vehicle colliding with the vehicle cabin from a direction per­pendicular to the vehicle orientation at an approximate speed of 20 - 30 km/h [12 ­18 mph]).
Both SRS curtain shield airbags may also deploy in the event of a severe frontal col­lision.

SRS airbag precautions
Observe the following precautions regarding the SRS airbags. Failure to do so may cause death or seri­ous injury.
The driver and all passengers in the vehicle must wear their seat belts properly. The SRS airbags are supplemental devices to be used with the seat belts.
The SRS driver airbag deploys with considerable force, and can cause death or serious injury especially if the driver is very close to the airbag.
Since the risk zone for the driver’s airbag is the first 50 - 75 mm (2 - 3 in.) of infla­tion, placing yourself 250 mm (10 in.) from your driver airbag provides you with a clear margin of safety. This distance is measured from the center of the steering wheel to your breastbone. If you sit less than 250 mm (10 in.) away now, you can change your driving position in several ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reaching the pedals comfortably.
The seat should be adjusted as recom­mended above, while still maintaining control of the foot pedals, steering wheel, and your view of the instrument panel controls.
The SRS front passenger airbag also deploys with considerable force, and can cause death or serious injury especially if the front passenger is very close to the airbag. The front passen­ger seat should be as far from the airbag as possible with the seatback adjusted, so the front passenger sits upright.
Improperly seated and/or restrained infants and children can be killed or seriously injured by a deploying airbag. An infant or child who is too small to use a seat belt should be properly secured using a child restraint system. Lexus strongly recommends that all infants and children be placed in the rear seats of the vehicle and properly restrained. The rear seats are safer for infants and children than the front pas­senger seat. (P.42)
Do not sit on the edge of the seat or lean against the dashboard.
• Slightly recline the back of the seat. Although vehicle designs vary, many drivers can achieve the 250 mm (10 in.) distance, even with the driver seat all the way forward, simply by reclining the back of the seat somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes it hard to see the road, raise yourself by using a firm, non-slippery cushion, or raise the seat if your vehicle has that feature.
• If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt it downward. This points the airbag toward your chest in stead of your head and neck.
Page 39
WARNING
Not for Reproduction
Do not allow a child to stand in front of the SRS front passenger airbag unit or sit on the knees of a front passenger.
Do not allow the front seat occupants to hold items on their knees.
Do not lean against the door, the roof side rail or the front, side and rear pil­lars.
1-1. For safe use
Do not attach anything to or lean any­thing against areas such as the dash­board, steering wheel pad and lower portion of the instrument panel. These items can become projectiles when the SRS driver, front passenger and knee airbags deploy.
Do not attach anything to areas such as a door, windshield, side windows, front or rear pillar, roof side rail and assist grip.
37
For safety and security
Do not allow anyone to kneel on the passenger seats toward the door or put their head or hands outside the vehicle.
Do not hang coat hangers or hard objects on the coat hooks. All of these items could become projectiles and may cause death or serious injury, should the SRS curtain shield airbags deploy.
If a vinyl cover is put on the area where the SRS knee airbag will deploy, be sure to remove it.
Do not use seat accessories which cover the parts where the SRS side airbags inflate as they may interfere with inflation of the SRS airbags. Such accessories may prevent the side airbags from activating correctly, disa­ble the system or cause the side airbags to inflate accidentally, resulting in death or serious injury.

WARNING
Not for Reproduction
1-1. For safe use
Do not strike or apply significant levels of force to the area of the SRS airbag components or the front doors. Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to mal­function.
Do not touch any of the component parts immediately after the SRS airbags have deployed (inflated) as they may be hot.
If breathing becomes difficult after the SRS airbags have deployed, open a door or window to allow fresh air in, or leave the vehicle if it is safe to do so. Wash off any residue as soon as possi­ble to prevent skin irritation.
If the areas where the SRS airbags are stored, such as the steering wheel pad and front and rear pillar garnishes are damaged or cracked, have them replaced by your Lexus dealer.
Modification and disposal of SRS airbag system components
Do not dispose of your vehicle or per­form any of the following modifications without consulting your Lexus dealer. The SRS airbags may malfunction or deploy (inflate) accidentally, causing death or serious injury.

PCS-linked Pop Up Hood operation control
If the PCS (Pre-Collision System) deter­mines that the possibility of a collision with a pedestrian or bicyclist is high, the Pop Up Hood will be prepared to operate.
Pop Up Hood operational conditions
The Pop Up Hood will operate when the vehicle detects an impact such as the fol­lowing:
The front bumper detects a frontal impact equivalent to or greater than that of a pedestrian while the vehicle being driven within the operational speed range of approximately 25 to 55 km/h (16 to 34 mph). (The system is operated by an impact of threshold level or greater, even in the case of a minor collision that may not leave a trace on the front bumper. Also, depending on the impact condi­tions or vehicle speed, the system may operate by a collision with a light or small object or a small animal.)
In other situations, such as the following the system may operate when an impact is applied to the lower part of the vehicle or front bumper:
• Colliding with a curb
• Falling into a deep hole
•Landing hard
• Hitting the slope of a parking lot, an undulating road, a protruding object or falling object
Conditions under which the Pop Up Hood may not operate properly
If a pedestrian collides with the right or left corner of the front bumper or the side of the vehicle. As such impacts may be difficult to detect, the system may not operate.
If the vehicle speed is not detected cor­rectly, such as if the vehicle is sliding side­ways, the system may not operate properly.

When the Pop Up Hood is operated
Do not pull the hood lock release lever. Doing so after the Pop Up Hood has operated will further raise the hood and may cause an injury. Do not drive with the hood raised, as doing so may block the driver’s vision, possibly caus­ing an accident.
Do not forcibly push down the hood. As the popped up hood cannot be lowered by hand, doing so may deform the hood or cause an injury.
If the Pop Up Hood has operated, have it replaced by your Lexus dealer. If the Pop Up Hood has operated, stop the vehicle in a safe place and contact your Lexus dealer.
Do not touch the lifters immediately after the Pop Up Hood has operated, as the lifters may be hot and burn you.
If something has hit the area around the front bumper, the sensors may be damaged even if the Pop Up Hood has not operated. Have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.
Do not remove or repair the parts or wiring of the Pop Up Hood, as doing so may cause accidental operation or prevent the system from operating properly. If repair or replacement is necessary, contact your Lexus dealer.
Do not remove such components as the front bumper, hood or suspension, or replace them with non-genuine parts, as doing so may prevent the sys­tem from operating properly.
Do not install anything to the front bumper or hood, as doing so may pre­vent the sensors from detecting an impact correctly and prevent the sys­tem from operating properly.
Do not close the hood with force or apply load to the lifters, as doing so may damage the lifters and prevent the system from operating properly.
Do not modify the suspension, as changes made to the vehicle height may prevent the system from operat­ing properly.
Pop Up Hood precautions
Make sure to close the hood before driving, as the system may not operate properly if the hood is not fully closed.
Make sure that all 4 tires are of the specified size and inflated to the speci­fied tire pressure. If tires of a different size are used, the system may not operate properly.

Use a child restraint system until the
child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt.
Choose a child restraint system
appropriate to the age and size of the child.
Note that not all child restraint sys-
tems can fit in all vehicles. Before using or purchasing a child restraint system, check the compati­bility of the child restraint system with seat positions. (P.47)
When a child is riding
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
For effective protection in automobile accidents and sudden stops, a child must be properly restrained, using a seat belt or child restraint system which is correctly installed. For installa­tion details, refer to the operation man­ual enclosed with the child restraint system. General installation instruction is provided in this manual.
Lexus strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system that con­forms to the weight and size of the child, installed on the rear seat. According to accident statistics, the child is safer when properly restrained in the rear seat than in the front seat.
Holding a child in your or someone else’s arms is not a substitute for a child restraint system. In an accident, the child can be crushed against the wind­shield or between the holder and the interior of the vehicle.
Handling the child restraint system
If the child restraint system is not prop­erly fixed in place, the child or other pas­sengers may be seriously injured or even killed in the event of sudden braking, sud­den swerving, or an accident.
If the vehicle were to receive a strong impact from an accident, etc., it is pos­sible that the child restraint system has damage that is not readily visible. In such cases, do not reuse the restraint system.
Depending on the child restraint sys­tem, installation may be difficult or impossible. In those cases, check whether the child restraint system is suitable for installment in the vehicle. (P.47) Be sure to install and observe the usage rules after carefully reading the child restraint system fixing method in this manual, as well as the operation manual enclosed with the child restraint system.
Keep the child restraint system prop­erly secured on the seat even if it is not in use. Do not store the child restraint system unsecured in the passenger compartment.
If it is necessary to detach the child restraint system, remove it from the vehicle or store it securely in the trunk.

When using a child restraint system
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rear­ward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front of it! This is because the force of the rapid inflation of the front passenger airbag can cause death or serious injury to the child. There is a label(s) on the passenger side sun visor, indicating it is forbidden to attach a rearfacing child restraint system to the front passenger seat. Details of the label(s) are shown in the illustration below.

1-2. Child safety
Only put a forward-facing child restraint system on the front seat when unavoidable. When installing a for­ward-facing child restraint on the front passenger seat, move the seat as far back as possible. Failing to do so may result in death or serious injury if the airbags deploy (inflate).
Do not allow the child to lean his/her head or any part of his/her body against the door or the area of the seat, front or rear pillars, or roof side rails from which the SRS side airbags or SRS curtain shield airbags deploy even if the child is seated in the child restraint system. It is dangerous if the SRS side and curtain shield airbags inflate, and the impact could cause death or serious injury to the child.
When a junior seat (booster seat) is installed, always ensure that the shoul­der belt is positioned across the center of the child’s shoulder. The belt should be kept away from the child’s neck, but not so that it could fall off the child’s shoulder.
Use child restraint system suitable to the age and size of the child and install it to the rear seat.

When securing some types of child restraint systems in rear seat, it may not be possible to properly use the seat belts in positions next to the child restraint without interfering with it or affecting seat belt effectiveness. Be sure your seat belt fits snugly across your shoulder and low on your hips. If it does not, or if it interferes with the child restraint, move to a different position. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
When installing a child restraint in
the rear seats, adjust the front seat so that it does not interfere with the child or child restraint system.
When installing a child seat with
support base, if the child seat inter­feres with the seatback when latch­ing it into the support base, adjust the seatback rearward until there is
no interference.
If the seat belt shoulder anchor is
ahead of the child seat belt guide, move the seat cushion forward.
When installing a junior seat, if the
child in your child restraint system is in a very upright position, adjust the seatback angle to the most comfort­able position. And if the seat belt shoulder anchor is ahead of the child seat belt guide, move the seat cushion forward.

The information display at low tem­peratures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal infor­mation display. At extremely low temper­atures, the information display monitor may respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between the driver’s shifting and th e new gear numbe r appearing on the display. This lag could cause the driver to downshift again, causing rapid and excessive engine brak­ing and possibly an accident resulting in death or injury.
To prevent damage to the engine and its components
Do not let the indicator needle of the tachometer enter the red zone, which indicates the maximum engine speed.
The engine may be overheating if the engine coolant temperature gauge is in the red zone (H). In this case, imme­diately stop the vehicle in a safe place, and check the engine after it has cooled completely. (P.405)

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 air­craft.
Electronic key battery depletion
The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years. (The card key battery life is about a year and a half.)
If the battery becomes low, an alarm will sound in the cabin and a message will be

shown on the multi-information display when the engine is stopped.
To reduce key battery depletion when the electronic key is to not be used for long periods of time, set the electronic key to the battery-saving mode. (P.109)
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 nec­essary.
• 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
• Personal computers
• Cellular phones, cordless phones and
battery chargers
• Recharging cellular phones or cordless
phones
• Table lamps
• Induction cookers

Confirmation of the number of regis­tered keys
The number of keys already registered to the vehicle can be confirmed. Ask your Lexus dealer for details.
If “A New Key has been Registered Contact Your Dealer for Details” is shown on the multi-information display
This message will be displayed each time the driver’s door is opened when the doors are unlocked from the outside for approxi­mately 10 days after a new electronic key has been registered. If this message is displayed but you have not had a new electronic key registered, ask your Lexus dealer to check if an unknown
electronic key (other than those in your possession) has been registered.
To prevent key damage
Do not drop the keys, subject them to strong shocks or bend them.
Do not expose the keys to high tem­peratures for a long period of time.
Do not get the keys wet or wash them in an ultrasonic washer etc.
Do not attach metallic or magnetic materials to the keys or place the keys close to such materials.
Do not disassemble the keys.
Do not attach a sticker or anything else to the surface of the electronic key.
Do not place the keys near objects that produce magnetic fields, such as TVs, audio systems and induction cookers, or medical electrical equipment, such as low-frequency therapy equipment.
Carrying the electronic key on your person
Carry the electronic key 10 cm (3.9 in.) or more away from electric appliances that are turned on. Radio waves emitted from electric appliances within 10 cm (3.9 in.) of the electronic key may inter­fere with the key, causing the key to not function properly.

Handling the card key (if equipped)
Do not apply excess force when insert­ing 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 and the card key may stop working. If the key is dropped into water, or if drinking water, etc. is spilled on the key, immediately 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 become loose.
When installing the battery, make sure to check the direction of the battery. Installing the battery in the wrong direction may cause the battery to deplete rapidly.
