Each power sliding door has an auto-
reverse f eature. If a door meets
resistance while closing, it will beep
three times and automatically
reverse direction. However, the door
may not immediately reverse
direction (like some elevator doors),
and the f orce of a closing door may
cause bruising or discomf ort. Always
make sure passengers and any
objects are well away f rom the power
sliding doors bef ore closing them.
Also check that passengers,
especially children, do not have their
hands on the edge of the sliding door
or on the door pillar. The auto-
reverse f eature stops working when
the door is about to latch so the
motor can pull the door shut.
With the sliding door f ully-closed or
f ully-open, pull the outside or inside
door handle, then release it.
Once the door begins to move, the
door handles cannot be used to stop
the door. If you need to stop the door
f or any reason, use the dashboard
switches or the remote transmitter. Each sliding door has a lock knob
under the inside door handle. Slide
the lock knob f orward to unlock, and
backward to lock the doors. You can
also use the lock and unlock buttons
on the remote transmitter.
Whenyoudrivewithchildreninyour
vehicle, use the childproof door
locks (see page ). This will
prevent children f rom opening the
doors accidentally.

µIf you just took
delivery of your vehicle and have not
trained any of the buttons in the
HomeLink transmitter bef ore, you
should erase any previously learned
codes bef ore training the f irst button.
Todothis,pressandholdthetwo
outside buttons on the HomeLink
transmitter for about 20 seconds
until the red light f lashes. Release
the buttons, then proceed to Step 1.
If you are training the second or
third buttons, go directly to Step 1.
Unplug the garage door opener
motor f rom the house current.
Holdtheendof thegaragedoor
opener remote control 2 to 5
inches f rom the HomeLink
transmitter. Make sure you are
not blocking your view of the red
light in the transmitter.
Bef ore 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:
Press the button on the remote
control and the button on the
transmitter 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 f or
the HomeLink transmitter to learn
thecode.Releaseandpressthe
button on the remote control every
two seconds until the transmitter has
learned the code.The red light in the transmitter
should begin f lashing. It will f lash
slowly at first, then rapidly.
When the red light f lashes rapidly,
release both buttons. The
transmitter should have learned
the code f rom the remote control.
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 rolling code garage
door opener. Test this by pressing
and holding the HomeLink
transmitter button you just trained.
If the red light blinks f or two
seconds,thenstayson,youhavea
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.’’
Repeat these steps to train the
other two transmitter buttons to
operate any other remotely-
controlled devices around your
home (lighting, automatic gate,
security system, etc.).
For security purposes, newer garage
door opening systems use a ‘‘rolling’’
or variable code. Inf ormation f rom
the remote control and the garage
door opener are needed bef ore 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 f ollowing
procedure synchronizes the
HomeLink transmitter to the garage
door opener so they send and
receive the correct codes.
