Battery-saving function

The battery-saving function will be acti-

vated in order to prevent the electronic key

battery and the vehicle battery from being

discharged while the vehicle is not in opera-

tion for a long time.

●

In the following situations, the smart

access system with push-button start may

take some time to unlock the doors.

• The electronic key has been left within

approximately 6 ft. (2 m) of the outside of

the vehicle for 10 minutes or longer.

• The smart access system with push-but-

ton start has not been used for 5 days or

longer.

●

If the smart access system with push-but-

ton start has not been used for 14 days or

longer, the doors cannot be unlocked at

the passenger door. In this case, take hold

of the driver’s door handle, or use the

wireless remote control or mechanical

key, to unlock the doors.

■

Electronic Key Battery-Saving Function

When battery-saving mode is set, battery

depletion is minimized by stopping the elec-

tronic key from receiving radio waves.

Press

twice while pressing and holding

. Confirm that the electronic key indica-

tor flashes 4 times.
While the battery-saving mode is set, the
smart access system with push-button start
cannot be used. To cancel the function,

■

Conditions affecting operation

The smart access system with push-button

start uses weak radio waves. 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:

Note for the entry function

●

Even when the electronic key is within the

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.

• The electronic key is on the instrument

panel, rear package tray or floor, or in the

door pockets or glove box when the

engine is started or engine switch modes

are changed.

●

Do not leave the electronic key on top of

the instrument panel or near the door

pockets when exiting the vehicle.

Depending on the radio wave reception

conditions, it may be detected by the

antenna outside the cabin and the doors

will become lockable from the outside,

possibly trapping the electronic key

inside the vehicle.

●

As long as the electronic key is within the

effective range, the doors may be locked

or unlocked by anyone. However, only

the doors detecting the electronic key

can be used to unlock the vehicle.

●

Even if the electronic key is not inside the

vehicle, it may be possible to start the

engine if the electronic key is near the

window.

●

The doors may unlock or lock if a large

amount of water splashes on the door

handle, such as in the rain or in a car

wash, when the electronic key is within

the effective range. (The doors will auto-

matically be locked after approximately

60 seconds if the doors are not opened

and closed.)

●

If the wireless remote control is used to

lock the doors when the electronic key is

near the vehicle, there is a possibility that

the door may not be unlocked by the

entry function. (Use the wireless remote

control to unlock the doors.)

●

Touching the door lock or unlock sensor

while wearing gloves may prevent lock or

unlock operation.

●

When the lock operation is performed

using the lock sensor, recognition signals

will be shown up to two consecutive

times. After this, no recognition signals

will be given.

●

If the door handle becomes wet while the

electronic key is within the effective

range, the door may lock and unlock

repeatedly. In this case, follow the follow-

ing correction procedures to wash the

vehicle:

• Place the electronic key in a location 6 ft.

(2 m) or more away from the vehicle.

(Take care to ensure that the key is not

stolen.)

• Set the electronic key to battery-saving

mode to disable the smart access system

with push-button start. (

P.94)

●

If the electronic key is inside the vehicle

and a door handle becomes wet during a

car wash, a message may be shown on

the multi-information display and a

buzzer will sound outside the vehicle. To

turn off the alarm, lock both side doors.

●

The lock sensor may not work properly if

it comes into contact with ice, snow, mud,

etc. Clean the lock sensor and attempt to

operate it again.

●

A sudden handle operation or a handle

operation immediately after entering the

effective range may prevent the doors

from being unlocked. Touch the door

unlock sensor and check that the doors

are unlocked before pulling the door

handle again.

●

Unlocking the vehicle may take more

time if another electronic key is within the

effective range.

■

When the vehicle is not driven for

extended periods

●

To prevent theft of the vehicle, do not

leave the electronic key within 6 ft. (2 m)

of the vehicle.

●

The smart access system with push-but-

ton start can be deactivated in advance.

■

To operate the system properly

●

Make sure to carry the electronic key

when operating the system. Do not get

the electronic key too close to the vehicle

when operating the system from the out-

side of the vehicle.

Depending on the position and holding

condition of the electronic key, the key may

not be detected correctly and the system

may not operate properly. (The alarm may

go off accidentally, or the door lock pre-

vention function may not operate.)

●

Do not leave the electronic key inside the

trunk.

The key confinement prevention function

may not operate, depending on the loca-

tion of the key (close to a spare tire [if

equipped], the inside edge of the trunk),

conditions (inside a metal bag, close to

metallic objects) and the radio waves in

the surrounding area. (

WARNING

■

Caution regarding interference with

electronic devices

●

People with implantable cardiac pace-

makers, cardiac resynchronization

therapy-pacemakers or implantable

cardioverter defibrillators should keep

away from the smart access system

with push-button start antennas.

(

P.93)

The radio waves may affect the opera-

tion of such devices. If necessary, the

entry function can be disabled. Ask

your Lexus dealer for details, such as

the frequency of radio waves and tim-

ing of the emitted radio waves. Then,

consult your doctor to see if you

should disable the entry function.

●

Users of any electrical medical device

other than implantable cardiac pace-

makers, cardiac resynchronization

therapy-pacemakers or implantable

cardioverter defibrillators should con-

sult the manufacturer of the device for

information about its operation under

the influence of radio waves.

Radio waves could have unexpected

effects on the operation of such medi-

cal devices.

Ask your Lexus dealer for details on dis-

abling the entry function.

ing.

●

When folding down a rear seatback, if it

interferes with a front seatback, adjust the

front seat position so that the seats no

longer interfere with each other. How-

ever, if adjusting the front seat position

causes the correct driving posture to not

be maintained, return the rear seatback

to its original position. (

WARNING

■

When adjusting the seat position

●

Take care when adjusting the seat

position to ensure that other passen-

gers are not injured by the moving

seat.

●

Do not put your hands under the seat

or near the moving parts to avoid

injury.

Fingers or hands may become jammed in

the seat mechanism.

●

Make sure to leave enough space

around the feet so they do not get

stuck.

■

Seat adjustment

To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap

belt during a collision, do not recline the

seat more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may

slide past the hips and apply restraint

forces directly to the abdomen, or your

neck may contact the shoulder belt,

increasing the risk of death or serious

injury in the event of an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while

driving as the seat may unexpectedly

move and cause the driver to lose control

of the vehicle.
