Visit on the web at www.home-
link.com/lexus or call 1-800-355-3515.
■Before programming HomeLink®
 During programming, it is possible 
that garage doors, gates, or other  devices may operate. For this rea-
son, make sure that people and 
objects are clear of the garage door 
or other devices to prevent injury or 
other potential harm.
 It is recommended that a new bat-
tery be placed in the remote control 
transmitter for more accurate pro-
gramming.
 Garage door opener motors manu-
factured after 1995 may be 
equipped with rolling code protec-
tion. If this is the case, you may need 
a stepladder or other sturdy, safe 
device to reach the “Learn” or 
“Smart” button on the garage door 
opener motor.
■Programming HomeLink®
Steps  1 through  3 must be performed 
within 60 seconds, otherwise the indi-
cator light will stop flashing and pro-
gramming will not be able to be 
completed.
1
Press and release the HomeLink® 
button you want to program and 
check that the HomeLink
® indica-
tor light flashes (orange).
WARNING
■When programming a garage door or 
other remote control device
The garage door or other device may 
operate, so ensure people and objects 
are out of danger to prevent potential 
harm.
■Conforming to federal safety stan-
dards
Do not use the HomeLink
® compatible 
transceiver with any garage door opener 
or device that lacks safety stop and 
reverse features as required by federal 
safety standards.
This includes any garage door that can-
not detect an interfering object. A door 
or device without these features 
increases the risk of death or serious 
injury.
■When operating or programming 
HomeLink®
Never allow a child to operate or play 
with the HomeLink® buttons.

firmly press and hold the Home-
Link
® button for 2 seconds then 
release it.
 If the garage door or other device 
does not operate, proceed to “Pro-
gramming a rolling code system”.

another device for any of the 
remaining HomeLink
® buttons.
■Programming a rolling code sys-
tem
2 or more people may be necessary to 
complete rolling code programming.

before using Safety Connect;
The Safety Connect system installed in 
your vehicle is a low-power radio trans-
mitter and receiver. It receives and also 
sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
In August 1996, the Federal Commu-
nications Commission (FCC) adopted 
RF exposure guidelines with safety lev-
els for mobile wireless phones. Those 
guidelines are consistent with the 
safety standards previously set by the 
following U.S. and international stan-
dards bodies.
ANSI (American National Stan-
dards Institute) C95.1 [1992]
 NCRP (National Council on Radia-
tion Protection and Measurement) 
Report 86 [1986]
 ICNIRP (International Commission 
on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protec-
tion) [1996]
Those standards were based on com-
prehensive and periodic evaluations of 
the relevant scientific literature. Over 
120 scientists, engi neers, and physi-
cians from universi ties, and govern-
ment health agencies and industries 
reviewed the available body of 
research to develop the ANSI Stan-
dard (C95.1).
The design of Safety Connect com-
plies with the FCC guidelines in addi-
tion to those standards.
