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
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 ªRolling Codeº type, proceed to the
heading ªProgramming a rolling code systemº.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for each remaining HomeLink

button to program another device.
Programming a rolling code system
If your device is ªRolling Codeº equipped, it is necessary
to follow steps 1 through 4 under the heading
ªProgramming the HomeLink
º before proceeding with
the steps listed below.
1. Locate the ªtrainingº button on the ceiling mounted garage
door opener motor. The exact location and color of the button
may vary by brand of garage door opener. Refer to the owner's
guide supplied by the garage door opener manufacturer for the
location of this ªtrainingº button.
2. Press the ªtrainingº button on the ceiling mounted garage
door opener motor.
Following this step, you have 30 seconds in which to initiate
step 3 below.
3. Press and release the vehicle's programmed HomeLink

button twice. The garage door may open. If the door does
open, the programming process in complete. If the door does
not open, press and release the button a third time. This third
press and release will complete the programming process by
opening the garage door.
The ceiling mounted garage door opener motor should now
recognize the HomeLink
 unit and be able to activate the
garage door up/down.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 for each remaining HomeLink

button to program another rolling code system.

CHILD RESTRAINT
Child restraint precautions
Lexus strongly urges the use of appropriate child
restraint systems for children.
The laws of all 50 states in the U.S.A. and Canada now require
the use of a child restraint system.
Your vehicle conforms to SAE J1819.
If a child is too large for a child restraint system, the child should
sit in the rear seat and must be restrained using the vehicle's
seat belt. See ªSeat beltsº on page 110 for details.
CAUTION
 For effective protection in automobile accidents and
sudden stops, a child must be properly restrained,
using a seat belt or child restraint system depending
on age and size of the child. Holding a child in your
arms is not a substitute for a child restraint system.
In an accident, the child can be crushed against the
windshield, or between you and the vehicle's interior.
 Lexus strongly urges use of a proper child restraint
system which conforms to the size of the child,
installed on the rear seat. According to accident
statistics, the child is safer when properly restrained
in the rear seat than in the front seat.
