IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY
239
IF YOU LOSE YOUR KEYS OR
LOCK YOURSELF OUT
Many Lexus dealers can make a new key if you can give them the
key number. Since your vehicle is equipped with the engine
immobiliser system, the dealer will also need your master key.
See the suggestion given in ”Keys” on page 8.
If your keys are locked in the vehicle and you cannot get a duplicate,
many Lexus dealers can still open the door for you, using their
special tools. If you must break a window to get in, we suggest
breaking the smallest side window because it is the least expensive
to replace. Be extremely cautious to avoid cuts from the glass.
Even if you lose only one key, contact your Lexus dealer to make a
new key. If you lose all your master keys, you cannot make new
keys; the whole system must be replaced.
