Prior to programming the HomeLink for the
first time
The following process deletes the standard codes
set at the factory. Do not repeat the process if you
program further buttons.

depressed for approx. 20 seconds until light-
emitting diode A begins to flash quickly.
All programmed signals of buttons 1 to 3 are
deleted.HomeLink with fixed code system
1. Press the desired button until the light-emitting
diode begins to flash slowly.
You then have approx. 5 minutes to perform
steps 2 and 3.
2. Hold the original hand-held transmitter approx.
0 to 12 in. (0 to 30 cm) in front of the marked
position (figure) on the vehicle.
3. Press the transmit button on the original hand-
held transmitter until the fog lights flash three
times (up to approx. 45 seconds).
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 to allocate other buttons.

Several attempts with different distances between
the vehicle and the original hand-held transmitter
might be necessary.
The fog lights will flash once the 5 minutes have
been exceeded. Programming must be repeated
from the beginning in this case.HomeLink with changeable code system
1. Allocate the required keys as for the systems
with fixed code (steps 1 to 3).
2. To synchronise the system:
Press the programming button on the receiver
for the garage door actuator.
Afterwards, you usually have approx.
30 seconds to initiate step 3.
3. Press the allocated HomeLink button twice.
(With some devices, the button to be allocated
must be pressed a third time in order to
complete the setting process.)
4. Repeat the programming steps to allocate
other buttons.
