Do not use the Universal Home
Remote with any garage door
opener that does not have the stop
and reverse feature. This includes
any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982.
Read the instructions completely
before attempting to program the
Universal Home Remote. Because
of the steps involved, it may be
helpful to have another person
available to assist you with
programming the Universal Home
Remote.
Keep the original hand-held
transmitter for use in other vehicles
as well as for future Universal Home
Remote programming. It is also
recommended that upon the sale of
the vehicle, the programmed
Universal Home Remote buttons
should be erased for security
purposes. See“Erasing Universal
Home Remote Buttons” later in this
section. When programming a garage door,
park outside of the garage. Park
directly in line with and facing the
garage door opener motor-head or
gate motor-head. Be sure that
people and objects are clear of the
garage door or gate that is being
programmed.
It is recommended that a new
battery be installed in your
hand-held transmitter for quicker
and more accurate transmission of
the radio-frequency signal.

the Universal Home Remote
System, call 1-800-355-3515 or go

Programming a garage door opener
involves time-sensitive actions, so
read the entire procedure before
starting. Otherwise, the device will
time out and the procedure will have
to be repeated.To program up to three devices:
1. Hold the end of your hand-held
transmitter about 3 to 8 cm
(1 to 3 inches) away from the
Universal Home Remote buttons
while keeping the indicator light
in view. The hand-held
transmitter was supplied by the
manufacturer of your garage
door opener receiver
(motor-head unit).
2. At the same time, press and hold both the hand-held
transmitter button and one of the
three Universal Home Remote
buttons to be used to operate
the garage door. Do not release
the Universal Home Remote
button or the hand-held
transmitter button until the
indicator light changes from a
slow to a rapidly flashing light.
You now may release both
buttons.

Some entry gates and garage
door openers may require
substitution of Step 2 with the
procedure noted in“Gate
Operator and Canadian
Programming” later in this
section.
3. Press and hold for five seconds the newly-trained Universal
Home Remote button (selected
button from Step 2) while
observing the indicator light and
garage door activation.
.If the indicator light stays on
continuously or the garage
door starts to move when
the Universal Home
Remote button is pressed
and released, then the
programming is complete.
There is no need to
continue programming
Steps 4 through 6.
.If the Universal Home
Remote indicator light
blinks rapidly for two seconds, then turns to
a constant light and the
garage door does not
move, continue with the
programming Steps 4
through 6.
It may be helpful to have
another person to assist
with the remaining Steps 4
through 6.
“Learn”
or“Smart” Buttons
4. After Steps 1 through 3 have been completed, locate the
“Learn” or“Smart” button inside
the garage on the garage door opener receiver (motor-head
unit). The name and color of the
button may vary by
manufacturer.
5. Firmly press and release the “Learn” or“Smart” button. After
you press this button, you will
have 30 seconds to complete
Step 6.
6. Immediately return to the vehicle. Firmly press and hold
for two seconds the Universal
Home Remote button, selected
in Step 2 to control the garage
door, and then release it. If the
garage door does not move or
the lamp on the garage door
opener receiver (motor-head
unit) does not flash, press and
hold the same button a second
time for two seconds, and then
release it. Again, if the door
does not move or the garage
door lamp does not flash, press
and hold the same button a third
time for two seconds, and then
release.

Gate Operator and Canadian
Programming
If you have questions or need help
programming the Universal Home
Remote System, call
1-800-355-3515 or go to
www.homelink.com.
Canadian radio-frequency laws
require transmitter signals to time
out or quit after several seconds of
transmission. This may not be long
enough for Universal Home Remote
to pick up the signal during
programming. Similarly, some U.S.
gate operators are manufactured to
time out in the same manner. If you live in Canada, or you are
having difficulty programming a gate
operator or garage door opener by
using the
“Programming Universal
Home Remote” procedures,
regardless of where you live,
replace Step 2 under “Programming
Universal Home Remote” with the
following:
2. Continue to press and hold the
Universal Home Remote button
while you press and release every
two seconds (cycle) the hand-held
transmitter button until the
frequency signal has been
successfully accepted by the
Universal Home Remote. The
Universal Home Remote indicator
light will flash slowly at first and then
rapidly. Proceed with Step 3 under
“Programming Universal Home
Remote” to complete.
