Operating the garage door opener
The ignition must be switched on.fPress and hold the corresponding HomeLink® button on the overhead operating console keypad.The indicator light A lights up during signal transmission.
Programming garage door opener: Deleting and storing signals
The HomeLink® system is programmed on the overhead operating console and in direct proximity to the vehicle’s radiator grille.
Preconditions
In order to delete programmed signals and store garage door opener signals,– the ignition must be switched on,– the turn signals must be off and – the engine must be off.
When using the garage door opener, the vehicle must be within the range of the receiver.
Deleting programmed signals from the buttons
This process clears all of the HomeLink® programming. It is not possible to individually clear the programmed buttons.Do not repeat this process if you want to assign additional signals to the buttons.fKeep the two outer buttons I and III on the overhead operating console keypad pressed for approx. 20 seconds until the indicator light A on button II starts to flash quickly.fRelease the buttons.
The HomeLink® buttons are cleared and can be reprogrammed.
Assigning garage door opener signal to key with fixed code system
On the overhead operating console: 1. Switch on ignition. 2. The standard factory-set codes must be deleted before programming for the first time . 3. Press and hold the desired button on the overhead operating console keypad until the indicator light A on button II starts to flash slowly.You now have 5 minutes to teach the button.4. Stand in front of the vehicle with the original remote control of the system to be programmed.

(20 cm) away from the marked position ( illustration) and press and hold the transmit button (for more than approx. 1 minute in some cases) until the vehicle’s turn signal lights flash on and off three times or the indicator light A on the overhead operating console starts flashing quickly.The turn signal lights flash three times and the indicator light A flashes quickly to confirm that the new signal has been programmed successfully.Several attempts with different distances between the vehicle and the original remote control may be necessary.With some systems, the transmit button on the original remote control may need to be pressed again when the indicator light on the original remote control goes out.
6. The turn signal lights will flash once when the 5 minute teaching readiness period has elapsed.Repeat steps 3 to 5.7. Repeat steps 3 to 5 to assign further signals to the remaining buttons.
Assigning garage door opener signal to button with changeable code system
With some systems, a changeable code also needs to be programmed for the HomeLink® system. A second person makes programming easier.
Identifying the changeable code
fPress and hold the previously programmed HomeLink® button.
If the indicator light A on button II in the overhead operating console starts to flash quickly and lights up continuously after approx. 2 seconds, it means that the equipment has a changeable code system.fInformation on synchronization can also be found in the operating instructions for the system to be programmed.
Assigning garage door opener signal to key
fPark the vehicle within the range of the remote- controlled equipment.
On the overhead operating console: 1. Switch on ignition. 2. The standard factory-set codes must be deleted before programming for the first time.

5. The turn signal lights will flash once when the 5-minute teaching readiness period has elapsed.Repeat steps 1 to 4.6. Repeat steps 1 to 4 to assign further signals to the other buttons.
Information
fPlease consult an authorized Porsche dealer if you have not been able to successfully assign signals to the buttons even though you have carefully followed the instructions in this section and the operating instructions for the original remote control. Your authorized Porsche dealer has a list of all garage door opener signals that can be adapted.fMake sure that the battery in the remote control for the garage door opener is new. If the battery voltage is inadequate, faults may occur in signal transmission. The system in the vehicle then learns the wrong code, which will not be recognized reliably by the garage door opening mechanism.
