■When programming a garage
door or other remote control
device
The garage door o r other device
may operate, so ensure people
and objects are out of danger to
prevent potential harm.
■Conforming to federal safety
standards
Do not use the HomeLink
® com-
patible transce iver with any
garage door opener or device that
lacks safety stop and reverse fea-
tures as required by federal safety
standards.
This includes any garage door
that cannot detect an interfering
object. A door or device without
these features increases the risk
of death or serious injury.
■When operating or program-
ming HomeLink®

■Before programming Home-
Link
®
During programming, it is pos-
sible that garage doors,
gates, or other devices may
operate. For this reason,
make sure that people and
objects are clear of the
garage door or other devices
to prevent injury or other
potential harm.
It is recommended that a new
battery be placed in the
remote control transmitter for
more accurate programming.
Garage door opener motors
manufactured after 1995 may
be equipped with rolling code
protection. If this is the case,
you may need a stepladder or
other sturdy, safe device to
reach the “Learn” or “Smart”
button on the garage door
opener motor.
