center floor console and one
accessory power outlet in the rear
cargo area on the passenger side.

replace up to three remote control
transmitters used to activate
devices such as garage door
openers, security systems, and
home automation devices.
Do not use this system 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
transmitter. Because of the steps
involved, it may be helpful to
have another person assist with
programming the transmitter.
Be sure to keep the original remote
control transmitter for use in other
vehicles, as well as for future
programming. Only the original
remote control transmitter is needed
for Fixed Code programming.The programmed buttons should
be erased when the vehicle is sold
or the lease ends. See
“Erasing
Universal Home Remote Buttons”
in this section.
Park the vehicle outside of the
garage when programming a garage
door. Be sure that people and
objects are clear of the garage door
or gate that is being programmed.

Most garage door openers sold
after 1996 are Rolling Code units. 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. From inside the vehicle,
press the two outside buttons
at the same time for one to
two seconds, and immediately
release them.

2. In the garage, locate thegarage door opener receiver
(motor-head unit). Find the
“Learn” or“Smart” button. It
can usually be found where
the hanging antenna wire is
attached to the motor-head unit
and may be a colored button.
Press this button. After pressing
this button, complete the
following steps in less than
30 seconds. 3. Immediately return to the
vehicle. Press and hold the
Universal Home Remote button
that will be used to control the
garage door until the garage
door moves. The indicator light,
above the selected button,
should slowly blink. This button
may need to be held for up to
20 seconds.
4. Immediately, within one second, release the button when the
garage door moves. The
indicator light will blink rapidly
until programming is complete.
5. Press and release the same button again. The garage door
should move, confirming that
programming is successful and
complete. To program another Rolling Code
device such as an additional
garage door opener, a security
device, or home automation device,
repeat Steps 1 through 5, choosing
a different function button in Step 3
than what was used for the garage
door opener.
If these instructions do not work,
the garage door opener is probably
a Fixed Code unit. Follow the
programming instructions that
follow for a Fixed Code garage
door opener.

Your hand-held transmitter
can have between 8 to 12 dip
switches depending on the
brand of transmitter.
The garage door opener
receiver (motor head unit)
could also have a row of dip
switches that can be used when
programming the Universal
Home Remote. If the total
number of switches on the
motor head and hand-held
transmitter are different, or if the
dip switch settings are different,
use the dip switch settings on
the motor head unit to program
the Universal Home Remote.
The motor head dip switch
settings can also be used when
the original hand-held transmitter
is not available.
