(e) Malfunction Indicator Lamp
This lamp comes on when the ignition key is turned to the
ONº position and goes off after the engine starts. This
means that the warning light system is operating properly.
If the lamp remains on, or the lamp comes on while driving,
first check the followings.
 Empty fuel tank
If the fuel tank is empty, refuel immediately.
 Loose fuel tank cap
If the fuel tank cap is loose, securely tighten it.
These cases are temporary malfunctions. The malfunction
indicator lamp will go off after taking several driving trips.
If the lamp does not go off even after several trips, contact your
Lexus dealer as soon as possible.
If the fuel tank is not empty or the fuel tank cap is not
loose...
 There is a problem somewhere in the engine, emission
control system, electronic throttle control system, automatic
transmission electrical system or warning light system itself.
Contact your Lexus dealer as soon as possible to service the
vehicle.
If engine speed does not increase when the accelerator pedal
is depressed, there may be a problem somewhere in the
electronic throttle control system. At this time, vibration may occur. However, if you depress the
accelerator pedal more firmly and slowly, you can drive your
vehicle at low speeds. Have your vehicle checked by your
Lexus dealer as soon as possible.
Even if the abnormality of the electronic throttle control system
is corrected during low speed driving, the system may not be
recovered until the engine is stopped and the ignition key is
turned to ACCº or LOCKº position.
CAUTION
Be especially careful to prevent erroneous pedal
operation.
Emissions inspection and maintenance (I/M) programs
Your vehicle may not pass a state emission inspection if the
malfunction indicator lamp remains on. Contact your Lexus
dealer to check your vehicle's emission control system and
OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) system before taking your
vehicle for the inspection.
For details, see Emissions inspection and maintenance (I/M)
programsº on page 451.

 and can be programmed to operate garage
doors, gates, entry doors, door locks, home lighting
systems, and security systems, etc.
(a) Programming the HomeLink
1Indicator light2Buttons
The HomeLink in your vehicle has 3 buttons and you can
store one program for each button.
To ensure correct programming into the HomeLink
, install a
new battery in the hand-held transmitter prior to programming. The battery side of the hand-held transmitter must be pointed
away from the HomeLink
 during the programming process.
For Canadian users, follow the procedure in Programming an
entrance gate/Programming all devices in the Canadian
marketº.
1. Decide which of 3 HomeLink
 buttons you want to program.
2. Place your hand-held garage transmitter 25 to 75 mm (1 to
3 in.) away from the surface of the HomeLink
.
Keep the indicator light on the HomeLink
 in view while
programming.
3. Simultaneously press and hold the hand-held garage
transmitter button along with the selected HomeLink
 button.
4. When the indicator light on the HomeLink
 changes from a
slow to a rapid flash after 20 seconds, you can release both
buttons.
5. Test the operation of the HomeLink
 by pressing the newly
programmed button. If programming a garage door opener,
check to see if the garage door opens and closes.
If the garage door does not operate, identify if your garage
transmitter is of the Rolling Codeº type. Press and hold the
programmed HomeLink
 button. The garage door has the
rolling code feature if the indicator light (on the HomeLink)
flashes rapidly and then remains lit after 2 seconds. If your
garage transmitter is the Rolling Codeº type, proceed to the
heading Programming a rolling code systemº.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for each remaining HomeLink

CAUTION
 When programming the HomeLink Universal
Transceiver, you may be operating a garage door or
other device. Make sure people and objects are out
of the way of the garage door or other device to

without these features increases risk of serious
injury or death.
