Locking/Unlocking the doors

When you push the "LOCK" button on the key briefly, all
the side doors and back door can be locked from outside
the vehicle.
At this time, you can hear one beep* and the turn signal lights
flash.** However, when you push the "LOCK" button with any
door not closed securely, the buzzer sounds for 10 seconds.***
To stop the buzzer, close all the side doors and back door
securely or push the "UNLOCK" button. If the key is in the
ignition switch, locking cannot be done.
Make sure all the doors are locked when you leave the vehicle.
Push the "LOCK" button once again. If they were already
locked, the turn signal lights will flash.
NOTE: *The volume of beep sound can be changed. **The
turn signal lights can be set not to flash. ***The buzzer can
be set not to sound with any door not closed securely. Ask
your Lexus dealer for details.
When you push the "UNLOCK" button, the driver's door
is unlocked. Pushing that button once again within 3
seconds from the first push, all other side doors and back
door are also unlocked.*
NOTE: *Unlocking by a 2–time operation can be changed.

At this time, two beeps sound.* Together with the activation of
unlocking, the interior light comes on for 15 seconds if the
interior light switch is in "DOOR" position.** However, this
function does not work when the ignition key is in the "ON"
position. For further information, see "Interior lights" on page

You have 30 seconds to open a door after using the wireless
remote unlock feature.*** If a door is not opened by then, all
the doors will be automatically locked again.
Even if the "LOCK" or "UNLOCK" button is kept pressed in, the
locking or unlocking operation is not repeated. Release the
button and then push again.
NOTE: *The volume of beep sound can be changed. **The
interior light can be set not to come on or the duration of
lighting can be changed. ***The time before automatic
re–locking can be changed. Ask your Lexus dealer for
details.
