PROGRAMMING TROUBLESHOOT-
ING
If the HomeLink®does not quickly learn the
hand-held transmitter information:
. replace the hand-held transmitter batteries
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 inter-
ruption.
. position the hand-held transmitter 1-3 in
(26-76 mm) away from the HomeLink
®
surface. Hold the transmitter in that position
for up to 15 seconds. If HomeLink®is not
programmed 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.
CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED IN-
FORMATION
The following procedure clears the programmed
information from both buttons. Individual buttons
cannot be cleared. However, individual buttons
can be reprogrammed, see “Reprogramming a
single HomeLink
®button” (P.2-53).
To clear all programming
1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink®
buttons until the indicator light begins to
flash in approximately 10 seconds. Do not
hold for longer than 20 seconds.
2. Release both buttons.
HomeLink
®is now in the programming mode
and can be programmed at any time beginning
with “Programming HomeLink
®” - Step 1.
REPROGRAMMING A SINGLE
HomeLink®BUTTON
To reprogram a HomeLink®Universal Transcei-
ver button, complete the following.
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink
®
button. DO NOT release the button.
2. The indicator light will begin to flash after 20 seconds. Without releasing the HomeLink
®
button, proceed with “Programming
HomeLink®” - Step 1.
For questions or comments, contact HomeLink®
at: www.homelink.com or 1-800-355-3515.
The HomeLink®Universal Transceiver button
has now been reprogrammed. The new device
can be activated by pushing the HomeLink
®
button that was just programmed. This proce-
dure will not affect any other programmed
HomeLink
®buttons.
IF YOUR VEHICLE IS STOLEN
If your vehicle is stolen, you should change the
codes of any non-rolling code device that has
been programmed into HomeLink
®. Consult the
Owner’s Manual of each device or call the
manufacturer or retailer of those devices for
additional information.
When your vehicle is recovered, you will
need to reprogram the HomeLink
®Univer-
sal Transceiver with your new transmitter
information.

WARNING
.Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat
belts, this provides greater safety in
the event of an accident by helping

thrown from the vehicle. This also
helps keep children and others from
unintentionally opening the doors,
and will help keep out intruders.
. Before opening any door, always
look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
. Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or con-
trols. Unattended children could
become involved in serious acci-
dents.
