Operation (With Three Round LED)
This vehicle may have the Universal Home RemoteSystem. If there are three round Light Emitting Diode(LED) indicator lights above the Universal Home Remotebuttons, follow the instructions below.
This system provides a way to replace up to three remotecontrol transmitters used to activate devices such asgarage door openers, security systems, and homeautomation devices.
Do not use this system with any garage door openerthat does not have the stop and reverse feature.This includes any garage door opener modelmanufactured before April 1, 1982.
Read the instructions completely before attempting toprogram the transmitter. Because of the steps involved,it may be helpful to have another person assist withprogramming the transmitter.
Be sure to keep the original remote control transmitterfor use in other vehicles, as well as, for futureprogramming. Only the original remote controltransmitter is needed for Fixed Code programming. Theprogrammed buttons should be erased when thevehicle is sold or the lease ends. See “Erasing UniversalHome Remote Buttons” later in this section.
