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 3 with the
following:
NOTE:
When programming a garage door opener,
etc., unplug the device during the “cycling”
process to prevent possible damage to the
device components.
Step 3: While the HomeLink
®indicator light
is flashing in orange, press and release
(“cycling”) the hand-held transmitter button
every 2 seconds. Continue to press and
release the hand-held transmitter button
until the HomeLink
®indicator light changes
from orange to green. When the indicator
light illuminates in green, hand-held trans- mitter button may be released.
Proceed with “Programming HomeLink
®”
step 4 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, firmly press
the appropriate programmed HomeLink
®
button. The indicator light will illuminate in
green with three parenthesison the
mirror while the signal is being transmitted.
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
®button.
. press and hold the HomeLink®button
and hand-held transmitter button in
each step without interruption.
. position the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3
in (2 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink
®
button. 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 - for example, 6 to 12 in
(15 to 30 cm) away, keeping the
HomeLink
®button in view at all times.
If you have any questions or are having
difficulty programming your HomeLink
®
buttons, refer to the HomeLink®web site

CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATION
The following procedure clears the pro-
grammed information from three buttons.
Individual buttons cannot be cleared. How-
ever, individual buttons can be repro-
grammed, see “Reprogramming a single
HomeLink
®button” (P.2-76).
To clear all programming
1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink®
buttons until the indicator light begins to
flash in green and “CLEARED” is dis-
played on the mirror, in approximately 10
seconds. Do not hold for longer than 20
seconds.
2. Release both buttons.

REPROGRAMMING A SINGLE
HomeLink®BUTTON
To reprogram a HomeLink®button, com-
plete the following.
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink
®
button. DO NOT release the button.
2. The indicator light will illuminate in green, and after 20 seconds it will begin
to flash in orange and “TRAINING” is
displayed on the mirror.
3. Release the HomeLink
®button and
proceed with “Programming
HomeLink
®” — Step 3.
For questions or comments, contact
HomeLink
®at: www.homelink.com/infiniti
or 1-800-355-3515.
The HomeLink
®button has now been re-
programmed. The new device can be acti-
vated by pressing the HomeLink
®button
that was just programmed. This procedure
will not affect any other programmed
HomeLink
®buttons.
If a new device is not programmed to the
HomeLink
®button, it will revert to the
previously stored programming.
USING THE GARAGE DOOR
TWO-WAY COMMUNICATION
HomeLink®has the function of communi-
cating with garage door opener systems. If
your garage door openers are compatible
with HomeLink
®, the HomeLink®can:
. receive and display “closing” or “opening”
status from your garage door opener.
. recall and display the garage door being
“closed” or “opened”.
HomeLink
®can receive the status from a
garage door opener at a range up to 820 ft
(250 m), but it varies depending on the
environment. You may need to reduce
vehicle speed to successfully receive the
garage door opener communication.
Programming two-way communi-
cation
After programming a new HomeLink®but-
ton, proceed with “Programming
HomeLink
®” Step 6 to enable two-way
communication. If the garage door status
indicator appears on the left side on the
mirror when pressing the programmed
HomeLink
®button, the two-way commu-
nication programming is complete.

Using two-way communication
Press and hold the HomeLink®buttons (1
and 2) simultaneously for 2 seconds to recall
and display the last recorded garage door
status communicated to HomeLink
®.
HomeLink®will display the last recorded
status for 3 seconds.
