Thanks. I had the flat key and the regular key in my pocket. Bet that was it.

This is one of the tradeoffs of the LC 500 Convertible's wind deflector. Unfortunately, the owner is not missing a hidden adjustment. The factory wind deflector sits high enough behind the front seats that it blocks a significant portion of the view through the interior rearview mirror. You likely already have thought of these, but here are a few suggestions: Use the outside mirrors more heavily. Many convertible owners essentially treat the center mirror as supplemental whenever the wind deflector is installed. Adjust the seat position and mirror angle. Some drivers find they can gain a small amount of visibility by slightly changing their seating position and lowering the mirror angle. Remove the wind deflector when not needed. The deflector is most beneficial for highway cruising with one or two occupants. Around town, many owners simply remove it and store it. Rely on the Blind Spot Monitor and Rear Cross Traffic Alert systems. These systems help compensate for the reduced rearward visibility, but they should not replace mirror checks. You should also verify that the wind deflector is installed correctly and fully seated in its mounting points. If installed backward or not fully latched, it can sit higher than intended and obstruct even more of the rear view.

You should have a maintenance manual. All maintenance requirements/schedules are in there.

For the 2026 Lexus RX 350, the lock confirmation beeps can vary depending on what the vehicle detects when you touch the door handle. Generally: One short beep usually means the doors locked successfully. Multiple beeps (repeated warning beeps) indicate the vehicle detected a condition that may prevent normal locking or that requires your attention. Common reasons for repeated beeping include: A key fob is still detected inside the vehicle. The RX will often sound several beeps and may refuse to lock to prevent locking the key inside. A door, rear hatch, or hood is not fully closed. Even if it looks shut, a partially latched door can trigger repeated warning beeps. Another key fob is detected nearby. If a second key is inside the vehicle, in a bag near the car, or close to a door, the system may issue additional warning beeps. The vehicle is still in ACC or ON mode. If the ignition is not fully OFF, the car may provide a warning tone sequence rather than a simple lock confirmation. Customization settings. Lexus allows some lock confirmation functions to be customized. Depending on settings, the vehicle may provide additional audible feedback under certain conditions. A useful observation would be whether the doors actually lock when you hear the 5-10 beeps. If the doors lock normally, the beeps are typically a warning rather than an indication of a locking failure.

Greetings, Sometimes when I lock the car by touching the handle it beeps once. Sometimes it beeps several times… as many as 10. What is the significance of the beeps. I’ve searching the manual, but haven‘t found an explanation. Thanks.
