UNIVERSAL GARAGE DOOR
OPENER
HomeLink Wireless Control System
WARNING: Do not use the system
with any garage door opener that does not
have the safety stop and reverse feature
as required by U.S. Federal Safety
Standards (this includes any garage door
opener manufactured before April 1, 1982).
A garage door opener which cannot detect
an object, signaling the door to stop and
reverse, does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features increases
the risk of serious injury or death.
Note: Make sure that the garage door and
security device are free from obstruction
when you are programming. Do not program
the system with the vehicle in the garage.
Note: Make sure you keep the original
remote control transmitter for use in other
vehicles as well as for future system
programming. Note:
We recommend that upon the sale or
lease termination of your vehicle, you erase
the programmed function buttons for security
reasons. See
Erasing the Function Button
Codes.
Note: You can program a maximum of three
devices. To change or replace any of the
three devices after it has been initially
programmed, you must first erase the current
settings. See
Erasing the Function Button
Codes. The universal garage door opener replaces
the common hand-held garage door opener
with a three-button transmitter that is
integrated into the driver’
s sun visor.The system includes two primary features, a
garage door opener and a platform for
remote activation of devices within the home.
As well as being programmed for garage
doors, the system transmitter can be
programmed to operate entry gate operators,
security systems, entry door locks and home
or office lighting.
Additional system information can be found
online at www.homelink.com,
www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by
calling the toll-free help line on
1-800-355-3515.
In-Vehicle Programming
This process is to program your hand-held
transmitter and your in-vehicle HomeLink
button.
Note:
The programming steps below assume
you will be programming HomeLink that was
not previously programmed.
Note: Put a new battery in the hand-held
transmitter. This will ensure quicker training
and accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency signal.

Tire Replacement Requirements
Your vehicle is equipped with tires
designed to provide a safe ride and
handling capability.
WARNING: Replace the wheels
and tires with the exact original brand,
size and construction that came
originally on your vehicle. Use of any
other wheel or tire combinations, even
with identical size ratings, may result
in insufficient running clearances, tire
rubbing and eventual puncture. Failure
to follow tire replacement
recommendations can lead to tire
failure, loss of vehicle control, serious
injury or death. WARNING: To reduce the risk of
serious injury, when mounting
replacement tires and wheels, you
should not exceed the maximum
pressure indicated on the sidewall of
the tire to set the beads without
additional precautions listed below. If
the beads do not seat at the maximum
pressure indicated, re-lubricate and
try again. WARNING:
When inflating the
tire for mounting pressures up to
20 psi (1.38 bar)
greater than the
maximum pressure on the tire sidewall,
the following precautions must be
taken to protect the person mounting
the tire:
1. Make sure that you have the correct
tire and wheel size.
2. Lubricate the tire bead and wheel
bead seat area again. 3. Stand at a minimum of
12 ft (3.66 m)
away from the wheel and tire
assembly.
4. Use both eye and ear protection. WARNING:
For a mounting
pressure more than 20 psi (1.38 bar)
greater than the maximum pressure,
a Ford dealer or other tire service
professional should do the mounting. WARNING:
Always inflate steel
carcass tires with a remote air fill with
the person inflating standing at a
minimum of
12 ft (3.66 m) away from
the wheel and tire assembly.
Important:
Remember to replace the
wheel valve stems when the road tires
are replaced on your vehicle
It is recommended that the two front
tires or two rear tires generally be
replaced as a pair.
