4. At the receiver located on the garage
door opener motor in the garage, locate
the “learn” or “smart” button (the name
and color of the button may vary by
manufacturer but it is usually located
near where the hanging antenna wire is
attached to the unit). If there is difficulty
locating the button, reference the garage
door opener’s manual.
5. Press and release the “learn” or “smart”
button.
NOTE:
Once the button is pressed, you have
approximately 30 seconds to initiate the
next step.
6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press
and hold the programmed HomeLink
®
button for two seconds and release.
Repeat the “press/hold/release” se-
quence up to 3 times to complete the
programming process. HomeLink
®
should now activate your rolling code
equipped device.
7. If you have any questions or are having
difficulty programming your HomeLink

PROGRAMMING HomeLink®FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS AND
GATE OPENERS
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)
after several seconds of transmission –
which may not be long enough for
HomeLink
®to pick up the signal during
programming. Similar to this Canadian law,
some U.S. gate operators are designed to
“time-out” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator or
garage door opener by using the “Program-
ming HomeLink
®” procedures, replace “Pro-
gramming HomeLink®” Step 2 with the
following:
NOTE:
When programming a garage door opener,
etc., unplug the device during the “cycling”
process to prevent possible damage to the
garage door opener components.
Step 2: Using both hands, simultaneously
press and hold the desired HomeLink
®
button and the hand-held transmitter but-
ton. During programming, your hand-held
transmitter may automatically stop trans-
mitting. Continue to press and hold the
desired HomeLink
®button while you press
and re-press (“cycle”) your hand-held trans-mitter every two seconds until the frequency
signal has been learned. The HomeLink
®
indicator light will flash slowly and then
rapidly after several seconds upon success-
ful programming.DO NOTrelease until the
HomeLink
®indicator light flashes slowly and
then rapidly. When the indicator light flashes
rapidly, both buttons may be released. The
rapid flashing indicates successful program-
ming.
Proceed with “Programming HomeLink
®”
step 3 to complete.
Remember to plug the device back in when
programming is completed.
OPERATING THE HomeLink®
UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER
The HomeLink®Universal Transceiver, after
it is programmed, can be used to activate the
programmed device. To operate, simply
press and release the appropriate pro-
grammed HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver
button. The amber indicator light will illumi-
nate while the signal is being transmitted.
For convenience, the hand-held transmitter
of the device may also be used at any time.

PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-
SHOOTING
If the HomeLink®does not quickly learn the
hand-held transmitter information:
.replace the hand-held transmitter bat-
teries 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
interruption.
.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
INFORMATION
The following procedure clears the pro-
grammed information from both buttons.
Individual buttons cannot be cleared. How-
ever, individual buttons can be repro-
grammed, see “Reprogramming a single
HomeLink
®button” (P.2-62).
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 begin-
ning with “Programming HomeLink
®” - Step
1.
REPROGRAMMING A SINGLE
HomeLink®BUTTON
To reprogram a HomeLink®Universal Trans-
ceiver button, complete the following.
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink
®
button.Do notrelease the button.
2. The indicator light will begin to flash
after 20 seconds. Without releasing the
HomeLink
®button, proceed with “Pro-
gramming HomeLink®” - Step 1.For questions or comments, contact
HomeLink
®at: www.homelink.com or 1-
800-355-3515.
The HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver but-
ton has now been reprogrammed. The new
device can be activated by pushing the
HomeLink
®button that was just pro-
grammed. This procedure 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.

.The doors will be locked and the air
conditioner system may turn on.
.The engine will continue to run for about
10 minutes. Repeat the steps to extend
the time for an additional 10 minutes.
See “Extending engine run time” (P.3-
20).
Depress and hold the brake pedal, then place
the ignition switch in the ON position before
driving. For further instructions, see “Driving
the vehicle” (P.5-16).
EXTENDING ENGINE RUN TIME
The remote engine start function can be
extended one time by performing the steps
listed in “Remote starting the engine” (P.3-
20). Run time will be calculated as follows:
.The first 10 minute run time will start
when the remote engine start function is
performed.
.The second 10 minutes will start imme-
diately when the remote engine start
function is performed. For example, ifthe engine has been running for 5
minutes, and 10 minutes are added, the
engine will run for a total of 15 minutes.
.Extending engine run time will count
towards the two remote start limit.
A maximum of two remote starts, or a single
start with an extension, are allowed be-
tween ignition cycles.
The ignition switch must be cycled to the ON
position and then back to the OFF position
