Default Comfort Opening / Closing

Hi guys,
I'm new here with a 2004 LS430.
I have read about and tested a feature that I can't "see" is covered in my handbook. That is - to open all windows and sunroof, press the unlock button 3 times and leave held pressed on the 3rd attempt. Then the windows and sunroof open (keep pressed for full sunroof opening).
However, I can't seem to find anything to activate a reverse of this ie lock car and close all open windows / sunroof ?
Can anyone advise if this feature is even available on this model ?
Many thanks
Woody

Many thanks Jimbo.
Ok, all noted.
So there isn't a corresponding command that will do this from the remote alone then ?
Cheers

Yeah that is correct. For some strange reason Lexus decided not to allow implementation of that function in North American LS 430's. It's allowed in Japanese and some European countries i think.

It’s some North American law. BMW’s and Mercedes’ are set the same way. However, with both of those, it’s a programmable thing. If you get coding software you can enable it (amongst other euro-only or non-US features). Not sure if that’s available for the LS.
