Smart Access System with Push Button Start (Continued)
Vehicle Starting/Stopping
The smart key has replaced the conventional metal cut key, and the power
button with an integral status indicator light has replaced the ignition switch.
The smart key only needs to be in proximity to the vehicle to allow the system
to function.
•
With the brake pedal released, the first push of the power button operates
the accessory mode, the second push operates the ignition-on mode, and the
third push turns the ignition off again.
Ignition Mode Sequence (brake pedal released):
•
Starting the vehicle takes priority over all other ignition modes and is
accomplished by depressing the brake pedal and pushing the power button
once. To verify the vehicle has started, check that the power button status
indicator light is off and the
READY
light is illuminated in the instrument
cluster.
•
If the internal smart key battery is dead, use the following method to start
the vehicle.
1. Touch the Lexus emblem side of the smart key to the power button.
2. Within the 5 seconds after the buzzer sounds, push the power button
with the brake pedal depressed (the
READY
light will illuminate).
•
Once the vehicle has started and is on and operational (
READY
-ON), the
vehicle is shut off by bringing the vehicle to a complete stop, placing the
shift lever in
P
ark, and then depressing the power button once.
•
To shut off the vehicle before coming to a stop in an emergency, push and
hold down the power button for more than 3 seconds. This procedure may
be useful at an accident scene in which the
READY
indicator is on, the
shift lever cannot be placed into
P
ark, and the drive wheels remain in
motion.
