Programming the HomeLink Transmitter
Do not use the HomeLink Transmitter with any garage
door opener that does not have the ªstop and reverseº
safety feature. This includes any garage door opener
model manufactured before April 1, 1982.
Be sure that people and objects are clear of the garage
door you are programming.
It is recommended that a new battery be installed in
your hand
-held transmitter for quicker and more
accurate transmission on the radio frequency.

2-95
Your vehicle's engine should be turned off while
programming the transmitter. Follow these steps to
program up to three channels:
1. Decide which one of the three channels (one of the
HomeLink buttons) you want to program.
2. Press and hold the desired button on HomeLink
through Step 3.
3. When the HomeLink indicator light begins to blink
slowly (this may take up to 30 seconds), hold the
hand
-held transmitter about 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm)
away from HomeLink and then press and hold the
transmit button on the hand
-held transmitter.
Continue to hold both buttons until the indicator
light on HomeLink begins to flash rapidly (this may
take up to 90 seconds).If you have trouble programming HomeLink, make
sure that you have followed the directions exactly as
described and that the battery in the hand
-held
transmitter is not weak. If you still cannot program it,
move the hand
-held transmitter to the left or right or
forward or backward or flip it upside down. HomeLink
may not work with older garage door openers that do
not meet current Federal Consumer Safety Standards.
If you cannot program the transmitter after repeated
attempts, refer to ªTraining a Garage Door Opener with
a ªRolling Codeº Featureº later in this section or contact
the manufacturer of HomeLink at 1
-800-355-3515, or
on the internet at www.homelink.com.
Be sure to keep the original hand
-held transmitter
in case you need to erase and reprogram the
HomeLink Transmitter.

2-96 Training a Garage Door Opener with a
ªRolling Codeº Feature (If Equipped)
If you have not previously programmed the hand-held
transmitter to HomeLink, see ªProgramming the
HomeLink Transmitterº listed previously. If you have
completed this programming already, you now need to
train the garage door opener motor head unit to
recognize HomeLink.
1. Find the ªLearnº or ªSmartº button on the garage
door opener motor head unit. The exact location and
color of the button will vary by garage door opener
brand. If you have difficulty finding the Learn or
Smart button, refer to your garage door opener
owner's manual or contact the manufacturer of
HomeLink at 1
-800-355-3515, or on the internet
at www.homelink.com.
Because of the steps involved, it may be helpful to
have another person available to assist you in
programming the transmitter.2. Press the Learn or Smart button on the garage
door opener motor head unit. An indicator light will
begin to flash when the motor head unit enters the
training mode.
Following this step, you have 30 seconds to
start Step 3.
3. Return to HomeLink in your vehicle and firmly
press and release the programmed HomeLink button
three times.
The rolling
-code garage door opener should now
recognize HomeLink. You may either use HomeLink or
the hand
-held transmitter to open the garage door.
If after following these instructions, you still have
problems training the garage door opener, contact the
manufacturer of HomeLink at 1
-800-355-3515, or on
the internet at www.homelink.com.

while you press and re
-press (cycle) your hand-held
transmitter every two seconds until HomeLink
is trained.
