vides a convenient way to consolidate the
functions of up to three individual hand-
held transmitters into one built-in device.
HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver:
. Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF)
devices such as garage doors, gates,
home and office lighting, entry door
locks and security systems.
. Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No
separate batteries are required. If the
vehicle’s battery is discharged or is
disconnected, HomeLink
®will retain all
programming.
When the HomeLink
®Universal Transcei-
ver is programmed, retain the original
transmitter for future programming proce-
dures (Example: new vehicle purchases).
Upon sale of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver buttons
should be erased for security purposes.
For additional information, refer to “Pro-
gramming HomeLink
®” (P.2-54).
WARNING
. Do not use the HomeLink®Universal
Transceiver with any garage door opener
that lacks safety stop and reverse

features as required by federal safety
standards. (These standards became
effective for opener models manufac-
tured after April 1, 1982). A garage door
opener which cannot detect an object in
the path of a closing garage door and
then automatically stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal safety
standards. Using a garage door opener
without these features increases the risk
of serious injury or death.
. During the programming procedure your
garage door or security gate will open
and close (if the transmitter is within
range). Make sure that people or objects
are clear of the garage door, gate, etc.
that you are programming.
. Your vehicle’s engine should be turned
off while programming the HomeLink
®
Universal Transceiver. Do not breathe
exhaust gases; they contain colorless
and odorless carbon monoxide. Carbon
monoxide is dangerous. It can cause
unconsciousness or death.
PROGRAMMING HomeLink®GUID-85A8DB52-5D4A-410F-B74C-59D7400433FEIf you have any questions or are having
difficulty programming your HomeLink®
buttons, refer to the HomeLink®web site
at: www.homelink.com or call 1-800-355-
3515.
NOTE:
It is also recommended that a new battery
be placed in the hand-held transmitter of
the device being programmed to
HomeLink
®for quicker programming and
accurate transmission of the radio-fre-
quency.
1. Position the end of your hand-held
transmitter 1 - 3 in (26 - 76 mm) away
from the HomeLink
®surface, keeping
the HomeLink®indicator light*1in
view.

press and hold the desired HomeLink®
button and handheld transmitter but-
ton. DO NOT release until the
HomeLink
®indicator light*1flashes
slowly and then rapidly. When the
indicator light flashes rapidly, both
buttons may be released. (The rapid
flashing indicates successful program-
ming.)

PROGRAMMING HomeLink®FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS AND GATE
OPENERS
GUID-1E6AA6A0-C124-48CD-9BAF-EDB500C1AB39Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out”(or quit)
after several seconds of transmission –
which may not be long enough for
HomeLink
®to pick up the signal during
programming. Similar to this Canadian
law, some U.S. gate operators are de-
signed to “time-out” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator or
garage door opener by using the “Pro-
gramming HomeLink
®” procedures, re-
place “Programming HomeLink®”Step 2
with the following:
NOTE:
When programming a garage door opener,
etc., unplug the device during the “cy-
cling” process to prevent possible damage
to the garage door opener components.
Step 2: Using both hands, simultaneously
press and hold the desired HomeLink
®
button and the hand-held transmitter button. During programming, your hand-
held transmitter may automatically stop
transmitting. Continue to press and hold
the desired HomeLink
®button while you
press and re-press (“cycle”) your hand-
held transmitter every two seconds until
the frequency signal has been learned. The
HomeLink
®indicator light will flash slowly
and then rapidly after several seconds
upon successful programming. DO NOT
release until the HomeLink
®indicator light
flashes slowly and then rapidly. When the
indicator light flashes rapidly, both buttons
may be released. The rapid flashing
indicates successful programming.
Proceed with “Programming HomeLink
®”
step 3 to complete.
Remember to plug the device back in when
programming is completed.
OPERATING THE HomeLink®UNI-
VERSAL TRANSCEIVER
GUID-EC404709-2864-44C1-97E6-FE8494B9B99DThe HomeLink®Universal Transceiver, after
it is programmed, can be used to activate
the programmed device. To operate, simply
press and release the appropriate pro-
grammed HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver
button. The amber indicator light will
illuminate while the signal is being trans- mitted.
For convenience, the hand-held transmitter
of the device may also be used at any time.
PROGRAMMING TROUBLESHOOT-
ING
GUID-3AC84787-9EBF-4C77-9CEB-81629E178960If the HomeLink®does not quickly learn
the hand-held transmitter information:
. replace the hand-held transmitter bat-
teries with new batteries.
. position the hand-held transmitter with
its battery area facing away from the
HomeLink
®surface.
. press and hold both the HomeLink®
and hand-held transmitter buttons
without interruption.
. position the hand-held transmitter 1 - 3
in (26 - 76 mm) away from the
HomeLink
®surface. Hold the transmit-
ter in that position for up to 15
seconds. If HomeLink
®is not pro-
grammed within that time, try holding
the transmitter in another position -
keeping the indicator light in view at all
times.
If you have any questions or are having
difficulty programming your HomeLink
®
buttons, refer to the HomeLink®web site
at: www.homelink.com or 1-800-355-3515.
