1.Park in front of the device you want to
program, and have the device’s remote
control ready.
2.To u c h Controls > Settings > HomeLink on
the touchscreen.
3.To u c h Enter Name, then use the onscreen

5.Follow the onscreen instructions.
Once programmed, you can operate the device
by touching its corresponding HomeLink icon
on the touchscreen’s status bar. HomeLink

close during programming. Before
programming, make sure that the device
is clear of any people or objects.
WARNING: Do not use the HomeLink
Universal Transceiver with a garage door
that does not meet federal safety
standards. A garage door opener that
cannot detect an object in its path and
then automatically stop and reverse,
does not meet these standards. Using a
garage door opener without these
features increases the risk of injury or
death.
