Default Keyless Entry Lock question

I just purchased a NEW used RX350 2010. I'm waiting for the owner to find me the manual, so I thought it'll be quicker if I post a thread, and have experience Lexus owners help me with this.

Besides, locking the door with the key-less remote, is there any other way to lock the doors? I don't have the button on the driver door also.

Oh, yay Awesome! I just tried it...the original owner just failed to mentioned this and I figured there had to be a way to lock it without pressing the alarm.

Thanks again =)

itsmekaty, maybe look in the black hole called the middle console for the missing manual

Welcome to CL and share some details about your new RX.

Thanks guys for all your inputs. Unfortunately, there is not manually in the center console as well. I will definitely post some pictures after I do a few interior light mods. I'm going through all the threads to find useful information to change those out to LED lights.

Make sure you remove the interior storage box in the center console (not just the small tray) and look underneath. The center console may be deeper than you think.

Where would an owner keep the manual if not in the car?

I keep mine in a drawer in the house. Got tired of fishing it out of the black hole, I keep a flashlight and a rag in there. There is a lot to learn with the RX, so you want that book handy at first.

koikoi: I did take out the storage box, and its not in there...the owner however did leave some cds . The owner recently left and move back to her country. Left the car for her son to take care and put it up for sale. But her son has no clue where she left the important stuff.

Well, the '10 manual mentioned a slot to place the manual in the console, LOL. That's why I brought it up. It is so dark down there and easy to miss it.

I like to keep it in the car, as it has lots of good information regarding towing and tire changing, (and fuses, etc) should that become necessary and I'm not there, or my memory fails me (could happen).

FYI, Lexus Enform app for the iPhone has a tab for vehicle information. I haven't reviewed it in depth but it looks like it might give a cursory glance at these things.

I keep my manual under the rear carpet over the spare tire. There is a nice location for it there.
