3. Hold your hand-held transmitter (garage door opener, for example) 2\
to 5 in. (5 to 12 cm) away from
the HomeLink® surface, keeping the indicator light in view. For place\
ment questions, contact
HomeLink® toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Internet:
www.HomeLink.com).
4. Using two hands, push and hold both your hand-held transmitter's butt\
on and the transceiver button
you wish to program. The indicator light will flash first slowly, then r\
apidly. Rapid flashing tells you the
HomeLink® button has been successfully programmed. Release both butto\
ns.
5. If you are programming a rolling code-equipped device (e.g., garage \
door opener or entry door lock),
refer to "Programming rolling codes" on the next page to complete the pr\
ogramming process.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 to program the other two transceiver buttons.
If, after several attempts, you are unable to successfully train the Hom\
eLink® Universal Transceiver to
learn your hand-held transmitter's signal, contact HomeLink® toll-fre\
e 1-800-355-3515 (Internet:
www.
HomeLink.com).
pg. 197 Audio
WARNING!
- If you use HomeLink® to open a garage door or gate, be sure no one \
is near the gate or door while it
is in motion.
- Do not use the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver with any garage door\
opener that lacks safety
"stop" and "reverse" features as required by federal safety standards. (\
This includes any garage door
opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door opener t\
hat cannot "detect" an
object, signalling the door to "stop" and "reverse" does not meet curren\
t federal safety standards.
Using a garage door opener without these features increases the risk of \
serious injury or death. For
more information on this matter, call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Interne\
t:
www.HomeLink.com).
NOTE: Canadian residents: During programming, your hand-held transmitter may automatically stop
transmitting. To successfully train HomeLink®, continue to hold the H\
omeLink® button. At the same
time, repeatedly press and hold your hand-held transmitter's button at t\
wo-second intervals until
HomeLink® has learned your transmitter's code. The HomeLink® indic\
ator light will flash first slowly,
and then rapidly to indicate that the button has been successfully progr\
ammed.
Determining if your garage door uses a rolling code
Determine, in one of the following ways, if your garage door uses a roll\
ing code system and is
manufactured after 1996:
