Programming HomeLink
®
*12
Follow these instructions to program
HomeLink ®
, reset all programming, or program
individual buttons.
NOTE In some vehicles, the ignition must be on or in
the "accessory position" before HomeLink
®
can be programmed or used. It can be a good
idea to put new batteries in the remote con-
trol being replaced by HomeLink ®
for faster
programming and better radio signal trans-
mission. The HomeLink ®
buttons should be
reset before programming.
WARNING While HomeLink
®
is being programmed, the
garage door or gate being programmed may
be activated. Make sure that no one is near
the door or gate during programming. When
programming a garage door opener, it is
advised to park outside of the garage. 1.
Point the remote control at the HomeLink ®
button to be programmed and hold it about
2-8 cm (1-3 inches) from the button. Do not
obstruct the HomeLink ®
indicator light.
Note: Some remote controls are more effec-
tive at programming HomeLink ®
from a dis-
tance of about 15-20 cm (6-12 inches). Try
moving the remote control closer or further
away if you are experiencing any difficulties
programming.
2.
Press and hold both the remote control but-
ton and the HomeLink ®
button to be pro-
grammed.
3. Do not release the buttons until the indicator light has stopped flashing slowly (about once
a second) and either flashes quickly (about
10 times a second) or glows steadily.
>Steady glow: Indication that program-
ming is complete. Press the programmed
button twice to activate.
Flashing quickly: The device being pro-
grammed with HomeLink ®
may have a
security function that requires an extra
step. Try pressing the programmed button
twice to see whether the programming
works. Otherwise, continue with the fol-
lowing steps. 4. Locate the "training" button
13
on the
receiver for the e.g. garage door opener. It is
usually located near the antenna bracket on
the receiver.
5.
Press and release the "training" button once.
Programming must be completed within 30
seconds after pressing the button.
6. Press and release the HomeLink ®
button to
be programmed. Repeat the press/hold/
release sequence a second time. For some
receivers, the sequence may need to be
repeated a third time.
> Programming is now completed and the garage door, gate, etc. should now be
activated when the programmed button is
pressed.
If you experience any difficulties programming,
please contact HomeLink ®
at: 12

13 The name and color of the button varies depending on the manufacturer.

return to the previously saved programming.

buttons
at once. It is not possible to reset individual but-
tons. Individual buttons can only be reprogram-
med.

Once HomeLink ®
is programmed, it can be
used instead of the separate remote controls.
Press and hold the programming button. The
garage door, gate, alarm system, etc. will be acti-
vated (this may take several seconds). If the but-
ton is held down for more than 20 seconds,
reprogramming will begin. The indicator light will
glow steadily or flash when the button has been
pressed. The original remote controls may be
used concurrently with HomeLink ®
if desired.
NOTE If the ignition is off, HomeLink
®
works for
30 minutes after the driver's door has been
opened.
WARNING •
If you use HomeLink ®
to open a garage
door or gate, be sure no one is near the
gate or door while it is in motion.
• Do not use HomeLink ®
with any garage
door opener that lacks safety stop and
reverse features as required by US fed-
eral safety standards (this includes any
garage door opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage door that
cannot detect an object - signaling the
door to stop and reverse - does not meet
current U.S. federal safety standards. For
more information, contact HomeLink at:
www.homelink.com.
