2023 MAZDA CX3 garage door opener

WARNING
Do not use the HomeLink system with
any garage door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse feature:
Using the HomeLink system with any
garage door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse feature as
required by federal safety standards is
dangerous. (This includes garage doors
manufactured before April 1, 1982.)
Using these garage door openers can
increase the risk of serious injury or
death. For further in formation, contact
HomeLink at www.homelink.com or
www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex
or an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Always check the areas surrounding
garage doors and gates for people or
obstructions before programming or
during operation of the HomeLink
system:
Programming or operating the
HomeLink system without verifying the
safety of areas surrounding garage
doors and gates is dangerous and
could result in an unexpected accident
and serious injury if someone were to
be hit.
NOTE
The programming will not be erased
even if the battery is disconnected.
▼ Pre-programming the HomeLink
System
NOTE
It is recommended that a new battery
be placed in the hand-held transmitter
of the device being programmed to
HomeLink for quicker training and
accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency signal.
Verify that there is a remote control
transmitter available for the device
you would like to program.
▼Programming the HomeLink
System
The HomeLink system provides 3
buttons which can be individually
selected and programmed using the
transmitters for current, on-market
devices as follows:
1. Press and release the HomeLink
button you would like to program.
The indicator light flashes slowly in
amber when the button is pressed.

NOTE
Depending on the hand-held
transmitter, it may be easier to do
the programming by holding it 15
to 20 cm (6 to 7.8 in) away from
the HomeLink button.
3. Press the hand-held transmitter button continuously until the
indicator light changes from amber
(flashing) to green (on/flashing).
NOTE
Some gate operators and garage
door openers may require you to
replace this Programming Step 3
with procedures noted in the “Gate
Operator/Canadian Programming”
section.
4. Press the HomeLink button again to check if the programming has been
completed.
If the indicator light remains on in
green, the programming is
complete and the device
becomes operational.
If the indicator light flashes
rapidly in green, firmly press and
hold the Homelink button and
release it after two seconds have
passed. Repeat this process up to
three times to complete the
programming. The device
becomes operational and
programming is complete. If the
device does not operate, go to
the next step.
5. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in the garage,
locate the “learn” or “smart” button.
This can usually be found where the
hanging antenna wire is attached to
the motor-head unit.
6. Firmly press and release the “learn” or “smart” button. (The name and
color of the button may vary by
manufacturer.)
NOTE
Complete the programming within
30 seconds.
7. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and hold the Homelink
button, and then release it after
two seconds have passed. Repeat
the “ press/hold/release ” sequence
a second time, and, depending on
the brand of the garage door
opener (or other rolling code
equipped device), repeat this
sequence a third time to complete
the programming process.
Press the programmed HomeLink
button and make sure that the
HomeLink System operates.
8. If the status indicator arrows are flashing, refer to Garage Door
Two-Way Communication.

▼Gate operator/Canadian
Programming
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 are having
difficulties programming a gate
operator by using the programming
procedures (regardless of where you
live), replace Step 3 of Programming
the HomeLink System with the
following:
NOTE
If programming a garage door opener
or gate operator, it is advised to unplug
the device during the “cycling” process
to prevent possible overheating.
While the indicator light is flashing in
amber, press the button on the
hand-held transmitter for 2 seconds
and release it repeatedly until the
indicator light changes from amber to
green.
Go back to Step 4 of Programming the
HomeLink System to complete the
procedure.
▼ Operating the HomeLink System
Press the programmed HomeLink
button to operate a programmed
device.
▼Reprogramming the HomeLink
system
To program a device to HomeLink
using a HomeLink button previously
trained, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired
HomeLink button. DO NOT release
the button.
2. After 20 seconds, the indicator light
flashes in amber. After the indicator
light flashes, release the HomeLink
button.
3. Go back to Step 2 of Programming the HomeLink System to complete
the procedure.
NOTE
If the programming has not been
completed, the system returns to the
previous programming.

▼Erasing Programmed HomeLink
Buttons
NOTE
All of the programmed HomeLink
buttons are reset. Individual buttons
cannot be reset, however, individual
buttons can be reprogrammed. For
individual button reprogramming,
refer to Reprogramming the
HomeLink System (page 4-69).
Verify that the programming has
been erased if you resell the vehicle.
1. Press the two outer HomeLink buttons continuously at the same
time until the indicator light flashes.
1. HomeLink button 3

2. Stop pressing the HomeLink buttons.
▼Garage Door Two-Way
Communication
The garage door two-way
communication is a function that
communicates with the garage door
opener and indicates whether the
garages door is open or closed using
the indicator lights in the rear view
mirror. It can indicate the status of the
garage door within a range up-to 250
m (820 ft).
NOTE
The communication range may shorten
depending on obstructions.
Programming two-way
communication
Within five seconds after programming
a new HomeLink button, both of the
garage door status indicator lights will
flash rapidly in green indicating that
the garage door two-way
communication has been established.
If the garage door status indicator
lights flash, the two-way
communication programming is
complete.

If the garage door status indicator
lights do not flash, the two-way
communication programming is not
completed. For additional HomeLink
information and programming videos,
