HomeLink Universa l Transmitte r
On EX model
The HomeLink Universal
Transmitter built into your vehicle
can be programmed to operate
remotely controlled devices around
your home, such as garage doors, lighting, or home security systems.
It can replace up to three remote
transmitters.
Custome r Assistanc e
If you have problems with training
the HomeLink Universal Transmitter,
or would like information on home
products that can be operated by the
transmitter, call (800) 355-3515. On
the internet, go to
www.homelink.jci.com.
Importan t Safet y Precaution s
Always refer to the operating
instructions and safety information
that came with your garage door
opener or other equipment you
intend to operate with the HomeLink Universal Transmitter.
If you do not have this information,
you should contact the
manufacturer of the equipment.
While training or using the transmitter, make sure you have a
clear view of the garage door or
gate, and that no one will be injured
by its movement.
Genera l Informatio n
If you are training the transmitter to
operate a garage door or gate, it is
recommended that you unplug the
motor for that device during
training. Repeatedly pressing the
remote control button could burn
out the motor.
The HomeLink transmitter stores the code in a permanent memory.
There should be no need to retrain
the transmitter if your vehicle's
battery goes dead or is
disconnected.
If your garage door opener was manufactured before April 1982,
you may not be able to program the
HomeLink Universal Transmitter tooperate it. Garage door openers
manufactured before that date do
not have a safety feature that
causes them to stop and reverse ifan obstacle is detected during
closing, increasing the risk of injury. If you have questions, call(800) 355-3515.
Trainin g th e Transmitte r
Before you can use the HomeLink
Universal Transmitter to operate devices around your home, it must
"learn" the proper codes. For
example, to train the transmitter to
open and close the garage door:

HomeLink Universa l Transmitte r
Before you begin — If you just took
delivery of your vehicle and have
not trained any of the buttons in the
HomeLink transmitter before, you should erase any previously learned
codes before training the first
button. To do this, press and hold the two outside buttons on the
HomeLink transmitter until the red light flashes. Release the buttons,
then proceed to Step 1.
If you are training the second or
third buttons, go directly to Step 1. 1. Unplug the garage door opener motor from the house current.
2. Hold the end of the garage door opener remote control 1 to 3
inches from the HomeLink
transmitter. Make sure you arenot blocking your view of the
red light in the transmitter. 3. Select the transmitter button
you want to train.
4. Press the button on the remote control and the button on thetransmitter at the same time.
Hold down both buttons.
Canadian Owners: The remote
control you are training from may stop transmitting after two
seconds. This is not long
enough for the HomeLink transmitter to learn the code.
Release and press the button on
the remote control every two
seconds until the transmitter has
learned the code.
5. The red light in the transmitter should begin flashing. It will
flash slowly at first, then
rapidly.
6. When the red light flashes rapidly, release both buttons.
The transmitter should have
learned the code from the
remote control.
7. Plug in the garage door opener motor, then test the transmitter
button by pushing it. It should operate the garage door.
If the button does not work,
repeat this procedure to train it again. If it still does not work,
you may have a variable or
Instrument s an d Control s

HomeLink Universa l Transmitte r
rolling code garage door
opener. Test this by pressing
and holding the HomeLink
transmitter button you just
trained. If the red light blinks
for two seconds, then stays on,
you have a rolling code garage
door opener. You may be able
to verify this with the
manufacturer's documentation.
Go to "Training With a Rolling
Code System."
8. Repeat these steps to train the other two transmitter buttons tooperate any other remotely-
controlled devices around your
home (lighting, automatic gate, security system, etc.).
Trainin g Wit h a Rollin g Cod e
Syste m
For security purposes, newer
garage door opening systems use a
"rolling" or variable code.
Information from the remote control and the garage door opener
are needed before the HomeLink
transmitter can operate the garage
door opener. The "Training the
Transmitter" procedure trains the
HomeLink transmitter to the proper garage door opener code. The
following procedure synchronizes the HomeLink transmitter to the
garage door opener so they sendand receive the correct codes.
It may be helpful to have someone assist you with this procedure.
1. Make sure you have properly completed the "Training the
Transmitter" procedure.
2. Find the "Training" button on your garage door opener unit.
The location will vary,
depending on the manufacturer.
The manufacturer's documentation may help. 3. Press the Training button on the
garage door opener unit until
the light next to the button
comes on, then release it. The light may blink, or come on andstay on. You then have
approximately 30 seconds to
complete the following steps.

Retrainin g a Butto n
To train an already programmed
