ization setting, the engine switch will turn
to ACCESSORY mode.
3 Firmly depress the brake pedal and
check that is shown on the
multi-information display.
4 Press the engine switch shortly and
firmly.
In the event that the engine still cannot
be started, contact your Lexus dealer.
■ Stopping the engine
Set the parking brake, shift the shift position
to P and press the engine switch as you nor-
mally do when stopping the engine.

measure, it is recommended that the elec-
tronic key battery be replaced immediately
when the battery is depleted. (P.439)

If a door or trunk is unlocked using the
mechanical key when the alarm system is
set, the alarm may be triggered. (P.62)
■ Changing engine switch modes
Release the brake pedal and press the
engine switch in step 3 above. The engine
