Introduction
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:
www.HomeLink.com
).

Programming the transceiver for the first time (U.S. residents)
1. For first time training, press and hold the two outer HomeLink buttons, releasing only when the HomeLink indicator
light begins to flash after 20 seconds. (Do not perform this step when training the additional HomeLink buttons.)
2. Position the hand -held transmitter 1-3 inches away from the HomeLink surface
104 03 Your driving environment
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
(located on your sun visor), keeping the HomeLink indicator light in view.
Using both hands, simultaneously press and hold both the desired HomeLink button and hand held transmitter button.
DO NOT release until the HomeLink indicator light flashes slowly and then rapidly. When the indicator light flashes
rapidly, both buttons may be released. (The rapid flashing indicates successful training.)
NOTE
Some garage door openers may require you to replace step 3 with the "cycling" procedure noted in the
"Programming the transceiver for the first time (Canadian residents)" section.
3. Press and hold the trained HomeLink button and observe the indicator light.
If the indicator light is solid/continuous, training is complete and your device should activate when the HomeLink
button is pressed and released.
If the indicator light blinks rapidly for 2 seconds and then turns a solid/continuous light, proceed with the following
training instructions for a rolling code device. A second person may make the following steps quicker and easier.
Please use a ladder or other device. Do not stand on your vehicle to perform the next steps.
4. At the garage door opener receiver (motorhead unit) in the garage, locate the "learn" or "smart" button (usually near
where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the unit). If there is difficulty locating the training button, reference the
garage door opener's manual or contact us toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com
).
5. Press and release the "learn" or "smart" button (the name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer).
NOTE
Once the button is pressed, there are 30 seconds in which to initiate the next step.
6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and hold the trained HomeLink button for two seconds and release. Repeat
the "press/hold/release" sequence up to 3 times to complete the training process.
To train additional HomeLink buttons, begin with step two.
Programming the transceiver for the first time (Canadian residents)
1. For first time training, press and hold the two outer HomeLink buttons releasing only when the HomeLink indicator
light begins to flash after 20 seconds. (Do not perform this step when training the additional HomeLink buttons.)
2. Position the hand -held transmitter 1-3 inches (2.5-7.5 cm) away from the HomeLink surface (located on your)
keeping the HomeLink indicator light in view.
3. Using both hands, simultaneously press and hold both the desired HomeLink button and hand held transmitter
