OFF position
When the switch is in the OFF position3,
the ceiling light will not illuminate, regard-
less of the condition.
CARGO LIGHT
The light illuminates when the rear hatch is
opened. When the rear hatch is closed, the
light goes off. For additional information,
refer to “Exterior and interior lights” in the
“Maintenance and do-it-yourself ” section
of this manual. The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver pro-
vides a convenient way to consolidate the
functions of up to three individual hand-
held transmitters into one built-in device.
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver:
• Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF)
devices such as garage doors, gates,
home and office lighting, entry door locks
and security systems.
• Is powered by the vehicle’s 12-volt battery. No separate batteries are required. If the
vehicle’s 12-volt battery is discharged or is
disconnected, HomeLink® will retain all
programming.
Once the HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver is programmed, retain the original
transmitter for future programming pro-
cedures (for example, new vehicle pur-
chases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver buttons should be erased for secu-
rity purposes. For additional information,
refer to “Programming HomeLink®” in this
section.
WARNING
• Do not use the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and re-
verse features as required by federal
safety standards. (These standards
became effective for opener models
manufactured af ter April 1, 1982.) A
garage door opener that cannot de-
tect an object in the path of a closing
garage door and then automatically
stop and reverse, does not meet cur-
rent federal safety standards. Using
a garage door opener without these
features increases the risk of serious
injury or death.
• During the programming procedure, your garage door or security gate
will open or close (if the transmitter
is within range). Make sure that
people or objects are clear of the ga-
rage door, gate, etc. that you are pro-
gramming.
• Place the power switch in the ACC or ON position while programming the
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver.

3. Press and hold the programmedHomeLink® button and observe the indi-
cator light.
• If the indicator light
1is solid/
continuous, programming is com-
plete and your device should activate
when the HomeLink® button is pressed
and released.
• If the indicator light
1blinks rapidly for
two seconds and then turns to a
solid/continuous light, continue with
Steps 4-6 for a rolling code device. A
second person may make the following steps easier. Please use a ladder or
other device. Do not stand on your ve-
hicle to perform the next steps.
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 ga-
rage door opener’s manual.
5. Press and release the “learn” or “smart” button.
6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and hold the trained HomeLink® button
for two seconds and release. Repeat the
“press/hold/release” sequence up to
three times to complete the training
process. HomeLink® should now acti-
vate your rolling code equipped device.
7.If you have any questions or are having
difficulty programming your HomeLink®
buttons, refer to the HomeLink® web site at:
www.homelink.com or call 1-800-355-3515.
PROGRAMMING HOMELINK® FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS AND GATE
OPENERS
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)
af ter several seconds of transmission –
which may not be long enough for
HomeLink® to pick up the signal during
training. Similar to this Canadian law, some
U.S. gate operators are designed to “tim-
eout” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having diffi-
culties training a gate operator or garage
door opener by using the “Training” proce-
dures, replace “Programming 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.
1. Refer to “Programming HomeLink®”
