Be sure that people and objects are clear of the garage
door you are programming.
Your vehicle’s engine should be turned
off while
programming the transmitter. Follow these steps to
program up to three channels:
1. If you have previously programmed a transmitter
channel, proceed
to Step 2. Otherwise, hold down the
two outside buttons on the universal transmitter until
the red light begins to flash rapidly (approximately
20 seconds). Then release the buttons. This procedure

If you have trouble programming the universal
transmitter, make sure that you have followed the
directions exactly

and try again. The universal transmitter may not work
with older garage door openers that
do not meet current
Federal Consumer Safety Standards. If

in case you need to erase and reprogram the
universal transmitter.
Note to Canadian Owners: During programming, the
hand-held transmitter may stop transmitting after one or
two seconds. If you are programming from one of these
transmitters, you should press and re-press
the button
on the hand-held transmitter every two seconds without
ever releasing
the button on the universal transmitter.
Release both buttons when the red light
on the universal
transmitter begins to flash rapidly.
Press and hold the appropriate button on the universal
transmitter. The red light
comes on while the signal is
being transmitted. Note that
the universal transmitter is disabled when the
VALET button
inside the glove box is activated. For
more information, see “Security Override” earlier in
this section.
Also note that if the hand-held transmitter appears to
program
the universal transmitter but does not open
your garage door,
and if the garage door opener was
manufactured after 1995, the garage door opener may
have
a “rolling code” system. A rolling code system
changes the code
of the garage door opener every time
you open or close the garage door.
To determine if you have this system, press the button
on the universal transmitter that you have programmed
already.
If the red light on the universal transmitter
flashes rapidly for
one or two seconds and then
stops flashing, the garage door opener has a rolling
code system.
