Mr. Anderson

February 21, 2025

To operate the door lock on a 2022 Lexus NX350h:

1. Unlocking and Locking with the Mechanical Key
- Insert a plastic card or similar object into the gap in the door handle to remove the cover.
- Use the mechanical key to:
- Unlock all doors.
- Lock all doors.

2. Key-Linked Functions (If Customized at Dealer)
- Turning and holding the key can:
- Open the windows and moon roof (or panoramic moon roof).
- Close the windows and moon roof (or panoramic moon roof).

### Safety Considerations:
- Avoid excessive force when removing the cover to prevent damage.
- Before operating the power windows and moon roof, ensure no passengers have body parts in the way to prevent injury.
- Do not allow children to operate the mechanical key, as they could get caught in the power window or moon roof.

Page 28: Important Points For The Hybrid System
1-2. Important points for the hybrid system Hybrid system features Your vehicle is a hybrid electric vehicle. It has characteristics different from con- ventional vehicles. Be sure you are closely familiar with the characteristics of your vehicle, and operate it with care. The hybrid system combines the use of a gasoline engine and an electric motor (traction motor) according to driving conditions, improving fuel efficiency and reducing exhaust emissions.
Page 29 1-2. Important points for the hybrid system ■ When accelerating sharply When the accelerator pedal is depressed heavily, the power of the hybrid battery (traction battery) is added to that of the gasoline engine via the electric motor (traction motor). ■...
Page 30 In the event that your vehicle must be disposed of, the hybrid battery must be disposed of by your Lexus dealer or a qualified service shop. If your vehicle is disposed of without the hybrid battery having been removed, there is a danger of serious electric...
Page 31 Do not carry large amounts of water such as water cooler bottles in the vehicle. If water spills onto the hybrid battery (traction battery), the battery may be damaged. Have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer. The illustration is an example for explanation and may differ from the actual item.
Page 32 The gasoline engine may not stop even if the vehicle is being driven by the hybrid battery (traction battery). If this continues for a few days, contact your Lexus dealer. ■ Hybrid battery (traction battery) lifespan The hybrid battery (traction battery) has a limited service life.
Page 33 1-2. Important points for the hybrid system This system operates based on the driving situation and traffic information of the road being driven on, helping to ensure excellent fuel economy.

Page 35 Do not start the hybrid system. If it is started as is, the leaked fuel may ignite. Leave the vehicle as soon as possible, and contact your Lexus dealer. INFORMATION ■...
Page 36 1-2. Important points for the hybrid system NOTICE ● Make sure not to block the air intake vent with anything, such as a seat cover, plastic cover, or luggage. If the vents become blocked, the hybrid battery (traction battery) input and output may be restricted, leading to a reduction in hybrid battery (traction battery) output and a malfunction.
Page 37: Hybrid Electric Vehicle Driving Tips
1-2. Important points for the hybrid system Hybrid electric vehicle driving tips For economical and ecological driving, pay attention to the following points: ■ Using Eco mode When using Eco mode, the torque corresponding to the accelerator pedal depres- sion amount can be generated more smoothly than it is in normal conditions. In addition, the operation of the air conditioning system (heating/cooling) will be minimized, improving the fuel economy.
Page 38 1-2. Important points for the hybrid system brakes. A greater amount of electrical energy can be regenerated when slowing down. ■ Air conditioning Use the air conditioning only when necessary. Doing so can help reduce excessive gasoline consumption. In summer: When the ambient temperature is high, use the recirculated air mode. Doing so will help to reduce the burden on the air conditioning system and reduce fuel consumption as well.

■ TWR (Trailer Weight Rating) (vehicles without towing package) Lexus does not recommend towing a trailer with your vehicle. ■ Cargo capacity Cargo capacity may increase or decrease depending on the weight and the number of occupants.
