2016 FORD F250 homelink

The appearance of your vehicle
’s universal
garage door opener varies according to
your option package. Before programming,
make sure you identify which transmitter
you have by comparing it to the graphics
below: Car2U Home Automation System
HomeLink
Note:
Programming these two types of
universal garage door openers are different,
and they have different instructions. Identify
your package and refer to the instructions
listed in this chapter.
CAR2U® Home Automation
System (If Equipped) WARNINGS
Make sure that the garage door and
security device are free from
obstruction when you are
programming. Do not program the system
with the vehicle in the garage. WARNINGS
Do not use the system with any
garage door opener that does not
have the safety stop and reverse
feature as required by U.S. Federal Safety
Standards (this includes any garage door
opener manufactured before April 1, 1982). Note:
Before you begin the programming
process, park your vehicle in front of the
garage door opener motor or other device
you want to program.
Note: Make sure you keep the original
remote control transmitter for use in other
vehicles as well as for future system
programming.
Note: We recommend that, upon the sale
or lease termination of your vehicle, you
erase the programmed function buttons for
security reasons. See Erasing the Function
Button Codes
later in this section.
Note: Programming the system to a
community gate will require a unique set of
instructions depending on the gate system
model. Contact the help line at
1-866-572-2728 for further information.
Note: If you accidently enter the program
mode by pressing and releasing the outer
two buttons or all three buttons
simultaneously, do not press any button
until the module times out after a few
seconds and resets to normal mode. When
the module has timed out, all three LED
lamps will flash rapidly for a few seconds
then turn off. Any settings should remain as
previously set.
The universal garage door opener replaces
the common hand-held garage door
opener with a three-button transmitter,
integrated into the driver ’s sun visor.

FCC and RSS-210 Industry Canada
Compliance
This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules and with RSS-210 of Industry
Canada. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful
interference, and
2. This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Changes or modifications to your device
not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance can void the
user ’s authority to operate the equipment. HomeLink Wireless Control
System (If Equipped) WARNING
Do not use the system with any
garage door opener that does not
have the safety stop and reverse
feature as required by U.S. Federal Safety
Standards (this includes any garage door
opener manufactured before April 1, 1982).
A garage door opener that cannot detect
an object, signaling the door to stop and
reverse, does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features increases
the risk of serious injury or death. Note:
Make sure that the garage door and
security device are free from obstruction
when you are programming. Do not program
the system with the vehicle in the garage.
Note: Make sure you keep the original
remote control transmitter for use in other
vehicles as well as for future system
programming.
Note: We recommend that, upon the sale
or lease termination of your vehicle, you
erase the programmed function buttons for
security reasons. See
Erasing the Button
Codes later in this section.
Note: You can program a maximum of
three devices. To change or replace any of
the three devices after you have
programmed them, you must first erase the
current settings. See
Erasing the Button
Codes later in this section. 132

(If Equipped)E164777 E142657

The universal garage door opener replaces
the common hand-held garage door
opener with a three-button transmitter,
integrated into the driver
’s sun visor.
The system includes two primary features,
a garage door opener and a platform for
remote activation of devices within the
home. This functionality allows you to
program garage door openers as well as
entry gate operators, security systems,
entry door locks and home or office
lighting.
You can find additional system information
online at www.homelink.com or by calling
the toll-free help line on 1-800-355-3515.
In-vehicle Programming
This process is to program your hand-held
transmitter and your in-vehicle HomeLink
button.
Note: Put a new battery in the hand-held
transmitter. This will ensure quicker training
and accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency signal. 1.
With your vehicle parked outside of the
garage, turn your ignition to the on
position, but do not start your vehicle.
2. Hold your hand-held garage door transmitter 1– 3 inches (2–8
centimeters) away from the HomeLink
button that you want to program. 3. Using both hands, simultaneously,
press and hold the desired HomeLink
button and the hand-held transmitter
button. DO NOT release either one until
the HomeLink indicator light flashes
slowly and then rapidly. When the
indicator light flashes rapidly, you can
release both buttons. The rapid
flashing indicates successful training.
4. Press and hold the HomeLink button you programmed for five seconds, then
release. You may need to do this twice
to activate the door. If your garage door
does not operate, watch the HomeLink
indicator light.
If the indicator light stays on, the
programming is complete. See
Programming Your Garage Door Motor
later in this section.
If the indicator light flashes rapidly for two
seconds and then turns to a constant light,
you have not programmed the HomeLink
button yet. Do the following:
Press and hold the HomeLink button while
you press and release the hand-held
transmitter button every two seconds. The
HomeLink indicator light will flash slowly
and then rapidly once the HomeLink
function button recognizes and accepts
the hand-held transmitter ’s radio
frequency signal.
After programming the HomeLink button,
begin programming your garage door
opener motor.
Note: You may need a ladder to reach the
unit and you may need to remove the cover
or lamp lens on your garage door opener.

begin flashing in 10-20 seconds. When this
happens, release both buttons. You have
now erased the programming, and the
indicator light should blink slowly to
indicate the device is in train mode when
you press any of the three HomeLink
buttons.
