■Before programming HomeLink®
● During programming, it is possible that garage doors, gates, or other devices may oper-
ate. For this reason, make su re that people and objects are clear of the garage door or
other devices to prevent inju ry 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.
Garage Door Opener
The garage door opener can be programmed using the HomeLink® to operate garage
doors, gates, entry doors, door locks, home lighting systems, security systems, and other
devices.
