THEFT DETERRENT
84
THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM
To deter theft of the vehicle, this system is designed to
sound an alarm and keep the engine from being started
if any door is opened while the system is armed. An
alarm will also sound if window glass is broken or if
power to the system is interrupted then restored while
it is armed.
When triggered, the vehicle’s horn sounds and the exterior
and interior lights flash in a unique pattern. Perhaps more
importantly, the vehicle’s starter is disabled at the same time,
preventing engine start.
Arming the system
1. Turn the ignition key to the “LOCK” position and
remove it. (The system will not arm it the key is left in the
ignition switch.)
2. Exit the vehicle and close all of the doors. (The
system will not arm if any door is open.)
3. Push the transmitter’s top button.
At the same time the “Theft deterrent system” arms, the
doors will lock, the tail and marker lights will flash once, and
the buzzer will “chirp” once.* Also, the vehicle’s interior lights
will come on for 3 seconds**, and the status monitor’s LED
will begin to flash steadily.
After using the transmitter to arm the system and lock the
doors, you must use it to unlock the doors and disarm the
system. Otherwise, the system will be triggered and an
alarm will sound.
Note: Manually locking the doors by key outside the
vehicle will not cause the “Theft deterrent system” to
arm. The “Theft deterrent system” can only be armed
and disarmed using the transmitter.
4. After confirming that the system is armed (tail and
marker lights flash once the buzzer “chirps” once), you
may depart from the vehicle.
Never leave anyone inside the vehicle when you arm the
system, because opening a door will cause the alarm to
sound.
* If a door is open when you push the transmitter’s top
button the “Theft deterrent system” will not arm (and the
doors will not lock). Instead, the buzzer will sound for up to
10 seconds or until the open door is closed securely.
** So long as the interior light switch is set to the “DOOR”
position.
When the system is armed
ALARM TRIGGERING
While the system is armed, the alarm will sound and the
vehicle’s starter will be disabled under the following
conditions:
If any of the doors are opened.
If the window glass is struck and/or broken.
If power to the system is interrupted (for example, due to
a dead battery or a blown fuse) then restored.
After about 1 minute, the alarm will automatically stop and
reset, but the vehicle’s starter will remain disabled until the
system is disarmed.
ALARM TRIGGERING BY THE GLASS BREAKAGE
SENSOR
A specially tuned microphone is mounted in the status
monitor next to the LED. This microphone is tuned to detect
the sound of tapping on or breaking of the vehicle’s window
glass. The sensor has been specifically adjusted by the
factory for your vehicle.
The glass breakage sensor triggers the system in two ways:
1. When the sound of tapping or breaking of glass is
detected, the system will first sound the alarm 3 times as a
warning.
2. If the glass is tapped on or broken within 5 seconds of the
first detection, the system will trigger for about 1 minute.
REACTIVATING THE SYSTEM
After the alarm has been triggered, the system will reset
itself. The alarm will sound again under the same
circumstances as listed in “Alarm Triggering”. Once armed,
the system can be triggered and reset 10 times and the
alarm will sound. After the system has been triggered 10
times, the alarm will no longer sound, but the vehicle’s starter
will continue to remain disabled.*
* After disarming then arming the system, the alarm can
sound again.
STOPPING THE ALARM
Push the transmitter’s top button once.
The alarm will stop, the doors will unlock, and the vehicle’s
starter will work again.
OR
Insert the key into the ignition switch, and turn it to
“ON” twice. (“ON” " “LOCK” " “ON”)
The alarm will stop, and the vehicle’s starter will work again.
Note: Pushing and holding the transmitter’s top
button for more than 2 seconds activates the Panic
Mode. For additional information, see “Sounding an
alarm (Panic Mode)” on page 9.
Status Monitor LED
The status monitor’s LED gives the following two indications:
FLASHING – The system is armed. You need the transmitter
to disarm the system and unlock the doors.
OFF – The system is inactive. You may open any door.
Testing the system
1. Open all of the windows.
2. Arm the system as described in “Arming the
system”.
The doors lock, and the status monitor’s LED will flash.
3. Open a door from the inside
The system will be triggered when the door is opened and
the alarm will sound.
4. Push the top button on the remote control
transmitter.
This will cancel the alarm.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for the other doors.
If the system does not work properly, have it checked by your
Lexus dealer.

KEYS
Master key – The master key works in every lock.
Subkey – The subkey will not open the glovebox.
Key number plate – Keep the plate in a safe place
such as your wallet, not in the vehicle.
To protect things locked in the trunk or glovebox when you
have your vehicle parked, leave the subkey with the
attendant.
Since the doors and trunk lid can be locked without a key, you
should always carry a spare master key in case you
accidentally lock your keys inside the vehicle.
If you should require replacement or additional keys for any
reason, contact your Lexus dealer.
You should also put a copy of the key number with your
important papers.
Insert your flat key in its key case as shown. We recommend
that you always carry this with you as a spare. Do not leave
it in your vehicle.
NOTICE
Do not let the key case become bent as the key may
fall out or become bent also.
The flat key is designed for emergency use only, so
do not use it regularly instead of the other master
keys.
