Programming HomeLink
The Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) fea-
tures a driver–interactive display which includes
HomeLink system messages. The EVIC display is located
in the overhead console.
NOTE:When programming a garage door opener, it is
advised to park outside the garage. It is also recom-
mended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being programmed to
HomeLink for quicker training and accurate transmis-
sion of the radio-frequency signal.
1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink buttons, and
the EVIC will display “CLEARING CHANNELS”, do not
release the buttons until “CHANNELS CLEARED” is
displayed on the EVIC (after approximately 20 seconds).
Do nothold the buttons for longer than 30 seconds anddo notrepeat step one to program a second and/or third
hand-held transmitter to the remaining two HomeLink
buttons.
2. Position the end of your hand-held transmitter 1-3
inches (3-8 cm) away from the HomeLink buttons while
keeping the EVIC display in view.

3. Simultaneously press and hold both the HomeLink
button that you want to train and the hand-held trans-
mitter button.Do not release the buttons until step 4 has
been completed.The EVIC will display “CHANNEL X
TRAINING”, once the transmitter is programmed the
EVIC will display “CHANNEL X TRAINED”. X refers to
the desired channel being trained (1,2 or 3).
NOTE:Some gate operators and garage door openers
may require you to replace this Programming Step 3 with
procedures noted in theGate Operator/Canadian Pro-
grammingsection.
4. Once “CHANNEL X TRAINED” is displayed on the
EVIC, release both buttons. Programming is now com-
plete. When the HomeLink button is subsequently
pressed, “CHANNEL X TRANSMIT” is displayed on the
screen and your device should be activated, (garage door
should open).NOTE:To program the remaining two HomeLink but-
tons, begin withProgrammingstep two. Do not repeat
step one.
NOTE:If the EVIC display shows “CHANNEL X TR-
ASMIT” (where X is channel 1,2 or 3) but your device
does not activate, the device may be equipped with a
“rolling code” system. Continue with the following steps
five through seven to complete the programming of a
rolling code equipped device (most commonly a garage
door opener manufactured after 1995). The assistance of
a second person may make the following programming
steps quicker and easier.
5.Programming a Rolling Code System
At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in
the garage, locate thelearnorsmartbutton. This can
usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is
attached to the motor-head unit.

7. Return to the vehicle and firmlypress, hold for two
seconds and releasethe programmed HomeLink button.
Repeat thepress/hold/releasesequence a second time,
and, depending on the brand of the garage door opener
(or other rolling code equipped device), repeat this
sequence a third time to complete the programming.
HomeLink should now activate your rolling code
equipped device.
NOTE:To program the remaining two HomeLink but-
tons, begin withProgrammingstep two. Do not repeat
step one. For questions or comments, please contact
HomeLink atwww.homelink.com or 1-800-355-3515.Canadian Programming/Gate Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter sig-
nals totime-out(or quit) after several seconds of
transmission which may not be long enough for
HomeLink to pick up the signal during programming.
Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are
designed totime-outin the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties
programming a gate operator by using theProgram-
mingprocedures (regardless of where you live),replace
Programming HomeLinkstep 3with the following:
3. Continue to press and hold the HomeLink button
while youpress and release every two seconds(cycle)
your hand-held transmitter until the frequency signal has
successfully been accepted by HomeLink. (The EVIC will
display “CHANNEL X TRAINING” and then “CHAN-
NEL X TRAINED”.) Proceed withProgrammingstep
four to complete.
164 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

NOTE:If programming a garage door opener or gate
operator, it is advised to unplug the device during the
cyclingprocess to prevent possible overheating.
Using HomeLink
To operate, simply press and release the programmed
HomeLink button. Activation will now occur for the
trained device (i.e. garage door opener, gate operator,
security system, entry door lock, home/office lighting,
etc.). For convenience, the hand-held transmitter of the
device may also be used at any time. In the event that
there are still programming difficulties or questions,
contact HomeLink at:www.homelink.com or 1-800-355-
3515.
