use the system=>
page 173, "Programming the Home link ® trans
m itter".
In order to program the Homelink ® transm itter fo r devices utilizing
rolling code, a second person on a ladder who can sa fely reach t he
garage door opener motor is recommended. It is also necessary to
locate the "learn" button on yo ur garage door opener motor . Re fer to

& WARNING
• Never use the Homelink'"' transmitter with any garage door
opener that does have not the safety stop and rever se feature as
required by fed eral safety standards. This includes any garage
door opener model manufactured before April
l , 1982 .
• A garage door opener which cannot detect an object, signaling
the door to stop and reverse does not meet current federal safety
standards . Using a garage door opener without these features
increases risk of serious injury or death.
& WARNING (cont inu ed )
• For safety reasons never release the parking brake o r start the
engine while anyone i s standing in front of the vehicle .
• A ga rage door or an estate gate may sometimes be set in
motion when the Homelink ® remote control is being
programmed. If the device is repeatedly activated, this can over
s train motor and dam age its electri cal components -an over
heated motor is a fi re hazard!
• To avoid pos sible injurie s or property damage , plea se always
make absolutely certain that no persons or objects are located in
the range of motion of any equipment being operated.

- If the indicator light blinks rapidly for 2 seconds and is
then a solid/continuous light , proceed with phase 3 to
program a rolling code device .
Phase 3: rolling code progr amming
- A second person on a ladder who can safely reach the

equipped device .
If the 5 minute time limit is exceeded, the emergency fl ash ers will
fla sh one time
to ind icate that the process has been terminated. In
this case, repeat steps 4 th rough 9 .
If the emergency flashers do not flash
three times (after about 15-
