*1: Programming Two-Way Communication
To check if your garage door opener is
compatible with this feature, refer to the
homelink.com/compatible/two-way-com-
munication website. If your garage door
opener has this functionality, HomeLink
®
mirror garage door status indicators may
appear after completion of programming.
NOTE:
It is possible for the HomeLink
®to stop
working with the garage door system
shortly after initial programming if the
Two-Way Communication programming is

simplify the following steps. Do not
stand on your vehicle to perform the
next steps. 2. On your garage door opener in your
garage, locate the “Learn” or “Set”
button (usually near where the hanging
antenna wire is attached to the garage
door opener). If there is difficulty locat-
ing this button, refer to the device’s
owner’s manual.
3. Press and release the “Learn” or “Set” button.
4. A light on your garage door opener may flash, and your two-way HomeLink
®
indicators in your vehicle may flash,
confirming completion of the process.
5. Pressing the trained HomeLink
®button
will now activate your garage door. The
status indicators will show when the
door is moving.
6. Your two-way enrollment is now com- plete.
USING THE GARAGE DOOR
TWO-WAY COMMUNICATION
HomeLink®has the function of communi-
cating with garage door opener systems. If
your garage door openers are compatible
with HomeLink
®, the HomeLink®can:
. receive and display “closing” or “opening”
status from your garage door opener.
. recall and display the garage door being
“closed” or “opened”. HomeLink
®can receive the status from a
garage door opener at a range up to 820 ft
(250 m), but it varies depending on the
environment. You may need to reduce
vehicle speed to successfully receive the
garage door opener communication.

WAC0379X
Using two-way communication
Press and hold the HomeLink®buttons (1
and 2) simultaneously for 2 seconds to recall
and display the last recorded garage door
status communicated to HomeLink
®.
HomeLink®will display the last recorded
status for 3 seconds.
If two-way communication programming is
successful, HomeLink
®will display the sta-
tus of your garage door opener with the
status indicator
, which changes depending
on the status. The garage door opener
status indicator shows the garage door
opener status as follows:
Flashing in orange – Closing
Flashing in orange – Opening
Illuminating in green – Closed
Illuminating in green – Opened
The status indicator stops to flash after an
open/close signal is received or no signal is
received within 30 seconds from the garage
door opener.
PROGRAMMING HomeLink®FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS AND
GATE OPENERS
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)
after several seconds of transmission –
which may not be long enough for
HomeLink
®to pick up the signal during
programming. Similar to this Canadian law,
some U.S. gate operators are designed to
“time-out” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator or
garage door opener by using the “Program-
ming HomeLink
®” procedures, replace “Pro-
gramming HomeLink®” Step 3 with the
following:
NOTE:
When programming a garage door opener,
etc., unplug the device during the “cycling”
process to prevent possible damage to the
device components. Step 3: While the HomeLink
®indicator light
is flashing in orange, press and release
(“cycling”) the hand-held transmitter button
every 2 seconds. Continue to press and
release the hand-held transmitter button
until the HomeLink
®indicator light changes
from orange to green. When the indicator
light illuminates in green, hand-held trans-
mitter button may be released.
Proceed with “Programming HomeLink
®”
step 4 to complete.
Remember to plug the device back in when
programming is completed.
OPERATING THE HomeLink®
UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER
The HomeLink®Universal Transceiver, after
it is programmed, can be used to activate the
programmed device. To operate, firmly press
the appropriate programmed HomeLink
®
button. The indicator light will illuminate in
green with three parenthesison the
mirror while the signal is being transmitted.
PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-
SHOOTING
If the HomeLink®does not quickly learn the
hand-held transmitter information:
. replace the hand-held transmitter bat-
teries with new batteries.
Instruments and controls2-83

2-84Instruments and controls
.position the hand-held transmitter with
its battery area facing away from the
HomeLink
®button.
. press and hold the HomeLink®button
and hand-held transmitter button in
each step without interruption.
. position the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3
in (2 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink
®
button. Hold the transmitter in that
position for up to 15 seconds. If
HomeLink
®is not programmed within
that time, try holding the transmitter in
another position - for example, 6 to 12 in
(15 to 30 cm) away, keeping the
HomeLink
®button in view at all times.
If you have any questions or are having
difficulty programming your HomeLink
®
buttons, refer to the HomeLink®web site
at: www.homelink.com/infiniti or 1-800-
