that is being programmed to the HomeLink® system.
Erase all channels before you begin programming.To erase the channels, place the ignition
switch into the ON/RUN position, then press and hold the two outside HomeLink®
buttons (I and III) for up to 20 seconds or until the red indicator flashes.
NOTE:
Erasing all channels should only be performed when programming HomeLink® for the
first time.Do not erase channels when programming additional buttons.
