5. To program the other buttons, repeat steps 3 and 4. Be
sure to keep your hand-held transmitters in case you
need to reprogram the universal transceiver.
NOTE:If you do not successfully program the
HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver to learn the signal of
the hand-held transmitter, refer toProgramming Mul-
tiple Security Code Systems (Rolling Code)later in
this text or call toll-free for customer assistance at
1-800-355-3515 or on the internet at
www.homelink.com.
NOTE:In Canada, D.O.C. regulations require many
hand-held transmitters to stop transmitting after two
seconds. On these hand-held transmitters, transmission
will stop even though the light on the hand-held trans-
mitter stays lit.
If you have one of these hand-held transmitters, you
should press and release the hand-held transmitter
button every two seconds without releasing the uni-
versal transceiver button.
Release both buttons when the display indicates

4. When the display indicates TRAINED, and the previ-
ous programming for the button has now been erased
and a new device has been programmed to the button.
This procedure will not affect any other programmed
buttons.
Operation
To operate, simply press the desired universal transceiver
button. The display shows that the appropriate channel
signal is being transmitted and the programmed device
should operate. For convenience, the hand-held transmit-
ter of the device may also be used at any time.
NOTE:If your hand-held transmitter appears to pro-
gram the universal transceiver, but your garage door
does not open, and your opener was manufactured after
1995, your garage door opener may have a multiple
security code system (rolling code system).
Multiple Security Code Systems (Rolling Code
System)
On garage door openers with a multiple code feature
(rolling code), the garage door opener transmitter code
changes after each use to prevent the copying of your
code.
Multiple security code (rolling code) garage door
openers and other devices which arecode protected
and manufactured after 1995, may be determined by
the following:
•
Reference the device’s owner’s manual for verification.
•The hand-held transmitter appears to program the
universal transceiver but does not activate the device.
To program a garage door opener with the multiple
security code (rolling code) feature, follow these
steps (The aid of a second person may make the
following programming procedures quicker):
1. Program your hand-held transmitter to the universal
transceiver by following the procedures previously de-
scribed in this section. (If you have already completed
this programming, proceed to the next step).
2. Locate the programming button on the garage door
opener motor head unit. The exact location and color of
the button may vary by garage door opener brand. If
there is difficulty locating the programming button,
reference the garage door opener owner’s manual or
contact HomeLinkat1-800-355-3515or on the internet
atwww.homelink.com.

3. Press the programming button on the garage door
opener motor head unit (which activates the program-
ming light).
4. Firmly press and release the programmed universal
transceiver button. Press and release the universal trans-
ceiver button a second time to complete the program-
ming process. (Some garage door openers may require
you to do this procedure a third time to complete the
programming.)
Your garage door opener should now recognize your
universal transceiver. You may use either your universal
transceiver or your original hand-held transmitter to
open your garage door.
For Your Security
If you sell your vehicle, be sure to erase the frequencies.
To erase all of the previously programmed frequencies,
hold down channel one and three buttons until
CLEARED CHANNELS is displayed.
NOTE:Individual channels can not be erased. You
must erase all three channels.
What May Cause The Universal Transceiver Not
To Work
•
The universal transceiver may not have been pro-
grammed correctly. Try reprogramming.
•The batteries in the hand-held transmitter may be
weak. New batteries may be required in your hand-
held transmitter.
•Place the hand-held transmitter at a different distance
from the universal transceiver (approximately 1 to 3
inches) (approximately 3 to 8 centimeters) and repro-
gram.
•The frequency of the programmed device’s hand-held
transmitter must be between 286MHz and 399MHz,
set by FCC part 15.205. (The back side of the hand-held
transmitter may indicate its frequency.)
•If you are unable to program the universal transceiver
after repeated attempts, you may contact HomeLink
at1–800–355–3515or on the internet at

RADIO GENERAL INFORMATION
Radio Broadcast Signals
Your new radio will provide excellent reception under
most operating conditions. Like any system, however, car
radios have performance limitations, due to mobile op-
eration and natural phenomena, which might lead you to
believe your sound system is malfunctioning. To help
you understand and save you concern about these “ap-
parent” malfunctions, you must understand a point or
two about the transmission and reception of radio sig-
nals.
