Locking/Unlocking Doors

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Lexus GS 430 and 2002 Lexus GS 300. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Do not push the LOCK button any longer than 2-3 seconds. Pushing the button longer activates an alarm.

Locking - When you push the LOCK button on the key briefly, all the doors can be locked from outside the vehicle.
When they are locked securely, the emergency flashers will flash and 1 beep will sound (the emergency flashers can be set not to flash and the beep volume can be changed). However, when you push the LOCK button with any door not closed securely, the buzzer sounds for 10 seconds (the buzzer can be set not to sound if a door is not closed securely). To stop the buzzer , close all the doors 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 (the turn signal lights can be set not to flash.
Unlocking - When you push the UNLOCK button, the driver's door is unlocked. Pushing that button again once again within 3 seconds from the first push, all the doors are also unlocked (the 2-step unlocking function can be changed).
At this time, the emergency flashers will flash twice and 2 beeps will sound (the emergency flashers can be set not to flash and the beep volume can be changed). Together with the activation of unlocking, the interior light comes on for 15 seconds if the interior light switch is in the DOOR position (the interior light can be set not to come on or the duration of lighting can be changed). However, this function does not work when the ignition key is in the ON position.

You have 30 seconds to open a door after using the wireless remote unlock feature (the time before automatic relocking can be changed). If a door is not opened by then, all the doors will be automatically locked again.

Even if the LOCK or UNLOCK switch is kept pressed in, the locking or unlocking operation is not repeated. Release the button and then push again.
