HOMELINKWIRELESS CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The HomeLink
Wireless Control
System, located on the driver’s visor,
provides a convenient way to
replace up to three hand-held
transmitters with a single built-in
device. This feature will learn the
radio frequency codes of most
transmitters to operate garage
doors, entry gate operators, security systems, entry door locks, and
home or office lighting.
WARNING:When programming your HomeLink
Wireless
Control System to a garage door or gate, be sure that people and
objects are out of the way to prevent potential injury or damage.
Do not use the HomeLink
Wireless Control System with any garage
door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by
U.S. federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener
model manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door which cannot

detect an object, signaling the door to stop and reverse, does not meet
current U.S. federal safety standards. For more information, contact
HomeLink
at:www.homelink.comor1–800–355–3515.
Retain the original transmitter for use in other vehicles as well as for
future programming procedures (i.e. new HomeLink
equipped vehicle
purchase). It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the
programmed Homelink
buttons be erased for security purposes, refer to
Programmingin this section.
Programming
Do not program HomeLink
with the vehicle parked in the garage.
Note:Your vehicle may require the ignition switch to be turned to the
accessory position for programming and/or operation of the HomeLink
.
It is also recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLink
for quicker
training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
1. Position the end of your
hand-held transmitter 1–3 inches
(2–8 cm) away from the HomeLink

button you wish to program (located
on your visor) while keeping the
indicator light in view.
2. Simultaneously press and hold
both the chosen HomeLink
and
hand-held transmitter buttons until the HomeLink
indicator light
changes from a slow to a rapidly blinking light. Now you may release
both the HomeLink
and hand-held transmitter buttons.
Note:Some entry gates and garage door openers may require you to
replace Step 2 with procedures noted in theGate Operator and
Canadian Programmingin this section for Canadian residents.
3. Firmlypress and hold for five seconds and releasethe
programmed HomeLink
button up to two separate times to activate the
door. If the door does not activate, press and hold the just-trained
HomeLink
button and observe the indicator light.
•If the indicator lightstays on constantly, programming is complete
and your device should activate when the HomeLink
button is pressed
and released.
•If the indicator light blinksrapidly for two seconds and then turns
to a constant light continue with “Programming” Steps 4 through
6to complete programming of a rolling code equipped device (most
