New Is250 Se Mm - Couple Of Questions

[AWARD2001]

Hi - I have just picked up my used 2006 250SE Auto with Multimedia - well pleased with it but have a couple of questions:

1) How many keys should come with the car? I was only given 2 by the dealer an have no key tag with code number. I had 3 with a tag for my old IS200SE - should I get 2 or 3 keys?

2) Like the voice control but I can't seem to find a list of commands the system accepts. I have mastered setting the temperature and changing CD track and disc number but what else can I get it to do? Is there a list anywhere? The help screen on the system isn't that much use.

Thanks!

Surely it is in the owner's manual ?

You only get two keys with the second generation IS, and should have a tag plate according to this http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index...ost&id=3764

but I don't have one either.

Cheers for the voice commands info. When I was test driving the IS250 the salesman asked me to press the button and say "Petrol Stations".

A list of petrol stations appeared and what impressed me was the proper icons for Shell, BP, Tesco fuel etc. Most impressive.

I hope you can't say "Supermarkets" or "Clothes Shops" or the missus will be having me on endless detours !
