▼ 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.

▼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,
