The HomeLink
Universal
Transceiver built into your vehicle
canbeprogrammedtooperateupto
three remote controlled devices
around your home, such as garage
doors, lighting, or home security
systems.
If you are training HomeLink to
operate a garage door or gate, you
should unplug the motor f or that
device during training. Repeatedly
pressing the remote control button
could burn out the motor.
The HomeLink transceiver 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
manuf actured bef ore April 1982, you
may not be able to program
HomeLink to operate it. They do not have the saf ety f eature
that causes the motor to stop and
reverse if an obstacle is detected
during closing, increasing the risk of
injury.
For quick and accurate training,
make sure the remote control
transmitter for the device (garage
door, automatic gate, security
system, etc.) has a fresh battery.
If you just
received your vehicle and have not
trained any of the buttons in
HomeLink bef ore, you should erase
any previously learned codes bef ore
training the first button.
Todothis,pressandholdthetwo
outside buttons on the HomeLink
transceiver for about 20 seconds, or
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.
HomeLink
is a registered
trademark of Johnson Controls .
Always ref er to the operating
instructions and saf ety inf ormation
that came with your garage door
opener or other equipment you
intend to operate with the HomeLink
Universal Transceiver. If you do not
have this inf ormation, you should
contact the manuf acturer of the
equipment.

Press and hold the remote control
button and one of the HomeLink
buttons at the same time.
Unplug the garage door opener
motor f rom the house current. The remote control
you are training f rom may stop trans-
mitting after two seconds. This is not
enough f or HomeLink to learn the
code. Release and press the button
on the remote control every two
seconds until HomeLink has learned
the code.
The red light in HomeLink should
begin f lashing. It will f lash slowly
at first, then rapidly.
When the red light f lashes rapidly,
release both buttons. HomeLink
should have learned the code from
the remote control. Plug in the garage door opener
motor, then test the HomeLink
transceiver button by pushing it. If
the button does not work, repeat
the procedure to train it again. If it
still does not work, you may have a
variable or rolling code garage
door opener. See if you do by
pressing and holding the
HomeLink transceiver button you
just trained. If the red light blinks
f or two seconds then stays on, you
have a rolling code garage door
opener. Go to ‘‘Training with a
Rolling Code System’’ (see page
)
Repeat these steps to train the
other two HomeLink buttons to
operate any other remotely
controlled devices around your
home (lighting, automatic gate,
security system, etc.).
Holdtheendof thegaragedoor

inches f rom the HomeLink
transceiver. Make sure you are not
blocking your view of the red light
in HomeLink.

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
HomeLink can operate the garage
door opener.
The ‘‘Training HomeLink’’
procedure trains HomeLink to the
proper garage door opener code.
The f ollowing procedure
synchronizes HomeLink to the
garage door opener so they send and
receive the correct codes.
Make sure you have properly
completed the ‘‘Training
HomeLink’’ procedure. 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 and stay on. You then
have approximately 30 seconds to
complete the f ollowing steps.Press and hold the button on
HomeLink f or 3 4 seconds.
Press and hold the HomeLink
button again f or 3 4 seconds.
This should turn of f the training
light on the garage door opener
unit. (Some systems may require
youtopressthebuttonuptothree
times.)
Press the HomeLink button again.
It should operate the garage door.
Find the ‘‘Training’’ button on your
garage door opener unit. The
location will vary, depending on
the manufacturer. 6.
