HomeLink1 is a 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 handheld remote controls. The HomeLink transceiver
consists of three programmable buttons and an indicator light.

NOTE
For your security, the HomeLink Universal Transceiver is designed to not function if you lock your car 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.
WARNING
If you use HomeLink to open a garage door or gate, be sure no one is near the gate or door while it is in motion.
Do not use the HomeLink Universal Transceiver with any garage door opener that lacks safety "stop" and
"reverse" features as required by federal safety standards. (This includes any garage door opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage door opener that cannot "detect" an object, signalling the door to "stop" and
"reverse" does not meet current federal safety standards. Using a garage door opener without these features increases
the risk of serious injury or death. For more information on this matter, call toll-free 1-800-355-3515. (Internet:

passenger compartment is then recirculated, i.e. no air from outside the car is taken into the car when this function is
activated.
If the air in the car recirculates for too long, there is a risk of condensation forming on the insides of the windows,

3. The next time the driver's door is unlocked with the same remote control and that door is opened within 2 minutes,
the driver's seat and door mirrors will automatically move to the position that they were in when the doors were most
recently locked with the same remote control.
NOTE
