If you are training HomeLink to
operate a garage door or gate, you
should unplug the motor for that
devi ce during training. Repeatedly
pressing the remote control button
could burn out the motor. They
do not have the safety feature
that causes the motor to stop and
reverse if an obstacle is detected
during closing, increasing the risk of
injury.
HomeLink stores the code in a
permanent memory. There should
be no need to retrain HomeLink if
your vehicle’s battery goes dead or is
disconnected. If your garage door
opener was manufactured before
April 1982, you may not be able to
program HomeLink to operate it.
The
HomeLinkuniversal
transceiver built into your vehicle
canbeprogrammedtooperateup to
three remotely controlled devices
around your home, such as garage
doors, lighting, or home security
systems.
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
receiv ed your vehicle and have not
trained any of the buttons in
HomeLink before, you should erase
any previously learned codes before
training the first button.
If you are training the second or
third buttons, go directly to step 1.
Unplug the garage door opener
motor from the electrical outlet.
Holdtheendofthegaragedoor
opener remote 2 to 5 inches from
HomeLink.Makesureyouarenot
blocking your view of the red
indicator in HomeLink.
Always
refer to the operating
instructions and safety information
that came with your garage door
opener or other equipment you
intend to operate with HomeLink. If
you do not have this information,
contact the manuf acturer of the
equipment. Todothis,pressandholdthetwo
outside buttons on the HomeLink
transceiver for about 20 seconds,
until the red indicator f lashes.
Release the buttons, then go to step

Plug in the garage door opener
motor, then test the HomeLink
button by pushing it for about 1 second.
If the button works,
programming is complete.
If the button does not work go
to step 6.
Press and hold the remote
transmitter button and one of the
HomeLink buttons at the same
time. If the red indicator in HomeLink
begins to flash slowly at first,
then rapidly, release both
buttons, and go to step 5. If the red indicator in HomeLink
continues to flash slowly (does
not flash rapidly), your remote
transmitter may stop
transmitting after a short time.
Go to step 4.
Press and hold the remote
transmitter button and one of the
HomeLink buttons at the same
time. While continuing to hold the
HomeLink button, press and
release the remote transmitter
button every 2 seconds. If the red indicator in HomeLink
begins to flash slowly at first,
then rapidly, release both
buttons, and go to step 5.
If the red indicator in HomeLink
continues to flash slowly (does
not begin to fl ash rapidly),
repeat steps 2 thru 4. Repeat these steps to train the
other two HomeLink buttons to
operate any other compatible
remotely controlled d
evices
around your home (lighting,
automatic gate, security system,
etc.). If
the indicator flashes rapidly
for 2 seconds then stays on, you
have a rolling code transmitter:
Go to ‘‘Training with a Rolling
Code System’’ (see page ). If the indicator stays on or
flashes slowly, repeat steps 2
thru 5.
PushandholdtheHomeLink
button f or a f ew seconds, then
watch the red indicator on

For security purposes, newer garage
door opening systems use a ‘‘rolling’’
or variable code. Information from
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 it sends and
receives the correct codes.Make sure you have properly
completed the ‘‘Training
HomeLink’’ procedure. Press and hold the button on
HomeLink f or 3 to 4 seconds.
Press and hold the HomeLink
button again f or 3 to 4 seconds.
This should turn of f the training
indicator on the garage door
opener unit. (Some systems may
require you to press the button up
to three 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. Press the training button on the
garage door opener unit until the
indicator next to the button comes
on. The indicator may blink, or
comeonandstayon.Youthen
have approximately 30 seconds to
complete the f ollowing steps.
