(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 ªProgramming 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 ªRolling Codeº type. Press and hold the

control. For details, see page 19.
Jam protection function

If something gets caught between the moon roof and frame
during slide closing operation, the moon roof stops and
opens half way, and the deflector stops and raises fully.
 If something gets caught between the moon roof and frame
during tilting down operation, the moon roof stops and
opens fully.
If the moon roof receives a strong impact, this function may
work even if nothing is caught.
If the battery is disconnected or run down
The moon roof may not operate automatically and the jam
protection function will not function correctly after you
reconnect, replace or recharge the battery. In any of these
cases, you should normalize the moon roof.
To normalize the moon roof, push and hold the switch on the
ªTILT UPº side until the moon roof tilts all the way up and then
tilts down a little automatically.
Make sure that the moon roof opens and closes automatically.
If the moon roof cannot be operated properly, have it checked
by your Lexus dealer.
CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you must do the
following.
 While the vehicle is moving, always keep the heads,
hands and other parts of the bodies of all occupants
away from the roof opening. Otherwise, they could
be seriously injured if the vehicle stops suddenly or
if the vehicle is involved in an accident.
 Before you close the moon roof, always make sure
there is nobody around the moon roof. You must also
make sure nobody places his or her head, hands and
other parts of the body in the roof opening. If
someone's neck, head or hands get caught in the
closing roof, it could result in death or serious injury.
When anyone closes the moon roof, first make sure
it is safe to do so.
 Be sure to remove the ignition key when you leave
your vehicle.
 Never leave anyone (particularly a small child) alone
in your vehicle, especially with the ignition key still
inserted. Otherwise, he/she could use the moon roof
switch and get trapped in the roof opening.
Unattended p erson (particularly a small child) can be
involved in a serious accident.
