Default Programming valet key for rx400h 2006

I just bought a valet key from Sewell Lexus which they also cut. But now I need to program it (so it will start the car). Apparently it has a chip in it that the the car does not recognize. I do have a master remote key. Anyone have programming instructions??

While there are a number of places who can cut a key for you, to program the computer chip to your vehicle requires a visit to a dealership and access to their tool to perform this work. Without the tool this cannot be done.

A Toyota dealer can program it for you also.
