Home Link® Universal Transceiver (option)
Introduction
HomeLink1 is an optional system that can be programmed to learn the codes of three different remote controlled-devices
(for example, a garage door opener, remote lighting, entry gate). 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. The HomeLink transceiver
consists of three programmable buttons and an indicator light.
1 HomeLink is a registered trademark of Johnson Controls, Intl.
© JCI, All rights reserved
NOTE
For your security, the HomeLink Universal Transceiver is designed to not function if you lock your vehicle from the
outside.
Retain the original transmitter(s) for future programming procedures (for example, if you purchase a new vehicle).
For your own security, erase all programmed buttons on the HomeLink Universal Transceiver when you sell your
vehicle.
Metallic sun protection films should not be used on any windows in a vehicle equipped with HomeLink Universal
Transceiver. This could interfere with the transceivers function.
Operating the HomeLink Universal Transceiver
Once programmed, the HomeLink Universal Transceiver can be used in place of your handheld transmitters.
NOTE
The HomeLink universal transceiver will function for 30 minutes after the driver's door has been opened without
switching on the vehicle's ignition.
Press the programmed HomeLink button to activate the garage door, driveway gate, security lightning, home security
system etc.
Your original hand -held transmitters may, of course, be used at any time.
