How do you start a Lexus ct200?

Starting a Lexus CT200h
To start a Lexus CT200h, follow these steps:
1. Accessing the 12V Battery: If the vehicle is completely dead, you may need to access the 12V battery in the back compartment. If you can still get into the car with the key, you may need to drop the back seats to access the batteries.
2. Jump Starting: If the vehicle doesn’t start, you may need to jump start it. You can use a portable battery jump starter, but if the car shuts down when you unplug the cables, you may need to use the emergency start function by holding the start button for around 20 seconds.
3. Remote Start: If you have a remote engine starter, it will work as in any case. The engine will fire up, and depending on when you arrive at your vehicle, the IC engine may or may not still be on. The remote starter may require a special remote or a module to be installed in the vehicle.
4. Trunk Access with Dead Battery: If the battery is dead and you need to open the trunk, you can use the hidden/emergency key located on the top of the key fob. Depending on the model, you may or may not have a keyhole on the trunk. If there’s a keyhole, you can use the key to unlock it. Alternatively, you can find the trunk open button inside the car, usually located on the left side of the driver’s footwell.
5. Driving: Once the vehicle is started, release the foot brake and gently release the brake pedal to begin driving.
Remember to always prioritize safety when jump starting a vehicle, and if you’re unsure about the process, it’s best to consult the vehicle’s manual or seek professional assistance.
