HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (if so equipped)
The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver can learn and consolidate the functions of up to three
different hand-held transmitters, operating items such as garage doors, property gates,
outdoor and indoor lights or alarm systems.

To program the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver:
• Position the handheld transceiver 1-3 in (26-76 mm) away from the HomeLink surface,
keeping the HomeLink indicator light in view.
• Press and hold the desired HomeLink button and the handheld transmitter button
simultaneously until the HomeLink indicator light flashes slowly and then rapidly.
• Both buttons may be released when the indicator light flashes rapidly.

To verify the programing is complete, press and hold the HomeLink button and observe the
indicator light:
• A solid, continuous light indicates the programing is complete and the HomeLink button
will activate your device.
• A blinking light that turns to a solid, continuous light after 2 seconds indicates additional
steps are required to complete the programing.

An additional person may make the remaining steps easier. To complete the
programing process:
• At the receiver of the device that you are programing to the HomeLink button, press and
release the learn or smart button (the name may vary by manufacturer, but it is usually
located near where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the unit). You have
approximately 30 seconds to initiate the following step.
• Press and hold the programed HomeLink button for 2 seconds and release.

You may have to repeat the previous two steps up to 3 times to complete the programing
