HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
pg. 175 HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
HomeLink® is an advanced system that can be programmed to learn the codes of three different remote controlled-
devices (e.g., garage door openers, remote lighting, entry door lock). HomeLink®'s sun visor-mounted transceiver,
powered by your car's electrical system, may then be used in place of your hand -held remote controls.
NOTE: For your security, the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver is designed to not function if the car has been
locked from the outside .
Programming the transceiver
1. The ignition switch must be turned to the "accessory" position (II) before programming the HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver.
2. Begin by erasing all 3 factory default channels. Hold down the two outside buttons (buttons 1 and 3 in the
illustration) on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver for about 20 seconds, until HomeLink®'s indicator light begins
to flash. Then release the buttons.
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 placement 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 button and the transceiver button you wish to
program. The indicator light will flash first slowly, then rapidly. Rapid flashing tells you the HomeLink® button has
been successfully programmed. Release both buttons.
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 programming process.

programming the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver, call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com).
Operating the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
Once programmed, the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver can be used in place of hand -held transmitters.
To operate, the key must be turned to the "accessory" position (II) or the engine must be running. Press the
programmed HomeLink® button to activate the garage door, driveway gate, security lighting, home security system,
etc.
Your original hand -held transmitters may, of course, be used at any time.
pg. 177 HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
Erasing programmed buttons
Individual buttons cannot be erased. To erase all three programmed buttons:
1. Turn the ignition key to the "accessory" position (II).
2. Hold down the two outside buttons on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver for about 20 seconds, until
HomeLink®'s indicator light begins to flash.
3. Release both buttons.
The HomeLink® buttons can be reprogrammed using the procedures described on the previous pages.
Reprogramming a single HomeLink® button
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink® button. Do not release the button until step 3 has been completed.
2. When the indicator light begins to flash slowly (after approximately 20 seconds), position the hand -held transmitter
2 to 5 in. (5 to 12 cm) away from the HomeLink® surface.
3. Press and hold the hand -held transmitter button. The HomeLink® indicator light will flash first slowly, then rapidly.
When the indicator light flashes rapidly, release both buttons.
The previously programmed device has now been erased and the new device can be activated by pressing the
HomeLink® button that has just been programmed. This procedure will not affect any other programmed HomeLink®
buttons.
NOTE:
Retain the original transmitter(s) for future programming procedures (i.e., if you purchase a new car).
For your own security, erase all programmed buttons on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver when you sell your
car.
Metallic sun protection films should not be used on any windows in a car equipped with HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver. This could interfere with the transceiver's function.
