Car2UHome Automation System (if equipped)
The Car2UHome Automation
System is a universal transmitter
located in the driver’s visor that
includes two primary features – a
garage door opener and a platform
for remote activation of devices
within the home. The Car2U
system’s garage door opener
function replaces the common
hand-held garage door opener with a three-button transmitter that is
integrated into the interior of your vehicle. After being programmed for
garage doors, the Car2Usystem transmitter can be programmed to
operate security devices and home lighting systems.
WARNING:Make sure that people and objects are clear of the
garage door or security device you are programming. Do not
program the Car2Usystem with the vehicle in the garage.
Do not use the Car2Usystem 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 manufactured before
April 1, 1982).
Be sure to keep the original remote control transmitter for use in other
vehicles as well as for future Car2Usystem programming. It is also
recommended that upon the sale or lease termination of the vehicle, the
programmed Car2Usystem buttons should be erased for security
reasons. Refer toErasing the Car2UHome Automation System
buttonslater in this section.
Read the instructions completely before attempting to program the
Car2Usystem. Because of the steps involved, it may be helpful to have
another person assist you in programming the transmitter.
Additional Car2Usystem information can be found on-line at
www.learcar2U.com or by calling the toll-free Car2Usystem help line at
1-866-572-2728.
Types of garage door openers (rolling code and fixed code)
The Car2UHome Automation System may be programmed to operate
rolling code and fixed code garage door openers.
•Rolling code garage door openers were produced after 1996 and are
code protected. Rolling code means the coded signal is changed every
time your remote control garage door opener is used.

USA(fus)

•Fixed code garage door openers were produced prior to 1996. Fixed
code uses the same coded signal every time. It is manually
programmed by setting DIP switches for a unique personal code.
If you do not know if your garage
door opener is a rolling code or
fixed code device, open your garage
door opener’s remote control battery
cover. If a panel of DIP switches is
present your garage door opener is
a fixed code device. If not, your
garage door opener is a rolling code
device.
Note:Programming the Car2Usystem to a community gate will require
a unique set of instructions depending on the gate system model.
Contact the Car2Uhelp line at 1-866-572-2728 to program your Car2U
system.
Note:Accidentally entering the program mode may override previously
programmed buttons. This can happen by pressing and releasing the
outer two buttons, or all three buttons, simultaneously. If this happens,
do not press any button until the module times out after approximately
2.5 seconds and resets to normal mode. When time-out occurs, all three
LEDs will flash rapidly for a few seconds then turn off. Any settings
should remain as previously set.
Rolling code programming
Note:Programming the rolling code garage door opener involves
time-sensitive actions. Read the entire procedure prior to beginning so
you will know which actions are time-sensitive. If you do not follow the
time-sensitive actions, the device will time out and you will have to
repeat the procedure.
Note:Do not program the Car2Usystem with the vehicle in the garage.
Make sure that your key is on and engine off while programming the
transmitter.

1. Firmly press the two outer
Car2Usystem buttons for
1–2 seconds, then release.
2. Go to the garage to locate the
garage door opener motor and its
“learn” button. You may need a
ladder to reach the unit and you
may need to remove the unit’s cover
or light lens to locate the “learn”
button. Press the “learn” button,
after which you will have
10–30 seconds to return to your
vehicle and complete the following
steps. If you cannot locate the
“learn” button, refer to the Owner’s Guide of your garage door opener or
call the toll-free Car2Usystem help line at 1-866-57Car2U
(1-866-572-2728).
3. Return to your vehicle. Press and
hold the Car2Usystem button you
would like to use to control the
garage door. You may need to hold
the button from 5–20 seconds,
during which time the selected
button indicator light will blink
slowly. Immediately (within
1 second) release the button once the garage door moves. When the
button is released, the indicator light will begin to blink rapidly until
programming is complete.
4. Press and release the button again. The garage door should move,
confirming that programming is successful. If your garage door does not
operate, repeat the previous steps in this section.
After successful programming, you will be able to operate your Car2U
system by pressing the button you programmed to activate the opener.

The indicator light above the selected button will turn on to confirm that
the Car2Usystem is responding to the button command.
To program another rolling code device such as an additional garage door
opener, a security device or home lighting, repeat Steps 1 through 4
substituting a different function button in Step 3 than what you used for
the garage door opener. For example, you could assign the left-most
button to the garage door, the center button to a security device, and
the right-most button to another garage door opener.
Note:The Car2Usystem allows for three devices to be programmed. If
you need to change or replace any of the three devices after it has been
initially programmed, it is necessary to erase the current settings using
theErasing the Car2UHome Automation System buttonsprocedure
and then programming all of the devices being used.
Fixed code programming
Note:Do not program the Car2Usystem with the vehicle in the garage.
Make sure that your key is on and engine off while programming the
transmitter.
1. To program units with fixed code DIP switches, you will need the
garage door hand-held transmitter, paper and a pen or pencil.
2. Open the battery cover and record the switch settings from left to
right for all 8 to 12 switches. Use the figure below:
When a switch is in the up, on, or + position, circle “L.”
When a switch is in the middle, neutral, or 0 position, circle “M.”
When a switch is in the down, off, or – position, circle “R.”

3. To input these positions into the
Car2Usystem, simultaneously
press all three Car2Usystem
buttons for a few seconds and then
release to put the device into
programming mode. The indicator
lights will blink slowly. Within
2.5 minutes enter your
corresponding DIP switch settings
from left to right into your Car2Usystem by pressing and releasing the
buttons corresponding to the settings you circled.
4. After inputting switch settings, simultaneously press and release all
three Car2Usystem buttons. The indicator lights will turn on.
5. Press and hold the Car2U
system button you would like to use
to control the garage door.
Immediately (within 1 second)
release the button once the garage
door moves. During this time the
selected button indicator light will
blink slowly. Do not release the
button until you see the garage door move. Most garage doors open
quickly. You may need to hold the button from 5–55 seconds before
observing movement of the garage door.
6. The indicator light will (begin to) blink rapidly until programming is
complete. If your garage door opener does not operate following these
steps, repeat Steps 2 through 6. Otherwise, call the toll-free Car2Uhelp
line at 1-866-57Car2U (1-866-572-2728).
