Integrated HomeLink
®Wireless
Control System
The HomeLink
®Wireless Control
System provides a convenient way to
replace up to three hand-held radio-
frequency (RF) transmitters with a
single built-in device. This innovative
feature will learn the radio frequency
codes of most current transmitters to
operate devices such as gate opera-
tors, garage door openers, entry
door locks, security systems, even
home lighting. Both standard and
rolling code-equipped transmitters
can be programmed by following the
outlined procedures. Additional
HomeLink
®information can be found
at: www.homelink.com or by calling
1-800-355-3515.
CAUTION
Before programming HomeLink®to a garage door
opener or gate operator, make sure that people and objects areout of the way of the device toprevent potential harm or dam-age. Do not use HomeLink
®with
any garage door opener that lacks the safety stop andreverse features required byU.S. federal safety standards(this includes any garage dooropener model manufacturedbefore April 1, 1982). A garagedoor that cannot detect anobject - signaling the door tostop and reverse - does notmeet current U.S. federal safetystandards. Using a garage dooropener without these featuresincreases the risk of seriousinjury or death.
