HomeLink Wireless Control System
WARNINGS
Make sure that the garage door andsecurity device are free fromobstruction when you are programming. Donot program the system with the vehicle inthe garage.
Do not use the system with any garagedoor opener that does not have thesafety stop and reverse feature as requiredby U.S. Federal Safety Standards (thisincludes any garage door openermanufactured before April 1, 1982). A garagedoor opener which cannot detect an object,signaling the door to stop and reverse, doesnot meet current federal safety standards.Using a garage door opener without thesefeatures increases the risk of serious injuryor death.
Note:Make sure you keep the originalremote control transmitter for use in othervehicles as well as for future systemprogramming.
Note:We recommend that upon the sale orlease termination of your vehicle, you erasethe programmed function buttons for securityreasons. See Erasing the Function ButtonCodes.
Note:You can program a maximum of threedevices. To change or replace any of thethree devices after it has been initiallyprogrammed, you must first erase the currentsettings. See Erasing the Function ButtonCodes.
The universal garage door opener replacesthe common hand-held garage door openerwith a three-button transmitter that isintegrated into the driver’s sun visor.
The system includes two primary features, agarage door opener and a platform forremote activation of devices within the home.As well as being programmed for garagedoors, the system transmitter can beprogrammed to operate entry gate operators,security systems, entry door locks and homeor office lighting.
Additional system information can be foundonline at www.homelink.com,www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or bycalling the toll-free help line on1-800-355-3515.
In-Vehicle Programming
This process is to program your hand-heldtransmitter and your in-vehicle HomeLinkbutton.

Gate Operator / Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws requiretransmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit) afterseveral seconds of transmission – which maynot be long enough for HomeLink to pick upthe signal during programming. Similar tothis Canadian law, some U.S. gate operatorsare designed to “time-out” in the samemanner.
Note:If programming a garage door openeror gate operator, it is advised to unplug thedevice during the “cycling” process toprevent possible overheating.
1. Press and hold the HomeLink buttonwhile you press and release, every twoseconds, your hand-held transmitter untilthe HomeLink indicator light changesfrom a slow to a rapidly blinking light.
2. Release both the HomeLink andhand-held transmitter buttons.
3. Continue programing HomeLink. SeeIn-Vehicle Programming.
Erasing the Function Button Codes
