WARNING
IDo not use the HomeLink
Universal
Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and
reverse features as required by fed-
eral safety standards. (These stan-
dards became effective for opener
models manufactured after April 1,
1982.) A garage door opener which
cannot detect an object in the path of
a closing garage door and then auto-
matically stop and reverse, does not
meet current federal safety stan-
dards. Using a garage door opener
without these features increases the
risk of serious injury or death.
IDuring programming, your garage
door or gate may open or close. Make
sure that people and objects are clear
of the garage door or gate that you
are programming.
IYour vehicle's engine should be
turned off while programming the
HomeLink
Universal Transceiver.
PROGRAMMING HomeLink1. With the ignition key in the OFF position,
press and hold the two outside buttons, and
release when the indicator light begins to
flash (approximately 20 seconds). This pro-
cedure erases the factory set default codes
and does not have to be followed when
programming additional hand-held trans-
mitters.
2. Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter
(from the device you wish to train) approxi-
mately 2 to 5 inches (50 to 127 mm) away
from the surface of HomeLink
keeping the
indicator light in view.3. Using both hands, simultaneously push the
hand-held transmitter button and the de-
sired HomeLink
button. Do not release the
buttons until step 4 has been completed.
NOTE:
Some garage door openers may require
the procedures noted under ªCanadian
Programmingº.
4. The HomeLinkindicator light will flash,
first slowly and then rapidly. When the
indicator light flashes rapidly, both buttons
may be released. The rapid flashing light
indicates the HomeLink
Universal Trans-
ceiver has been successfully programmed.
To program the remaining two buttons, follow
steps 2 through 4.
If, after repeated attempts, you do not suc-
cessfully program the HomeLink
Universal
Transceiver to learn the signal of the hand-
held transmitter, refer to ªRolling Code Pro-
grammingº later in this section.
PROGRAMMING HomeLink
FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS
Prior to 1992, D.O.C. regulations required
hand-held transmitters to stop transmitting af-
ter 2 seconds. To program your hand-held
transmitter to HomeLink
, continue to press
