Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off while
programming the transmitter. Follow these steps to
program up to three channels:
1. If you have previously programmed a transmitter
channel, proceed to Step 2. Otherwise, hold down
the two outside buttons on the HomeLink
Transmitter until the indicator light begins to flash
rapidly (after 20 seconds). Then release the buttons.
This procedure initializes the memory and erases any
previous settings for all three channels.
2. Decide which one of the three channels you want to
program. Hold the end of the hand
-
held transmitter
about 2 to 5 inches (5 to 13 cm) away from the
surface of the HomeLink Transmitter so that you
can still see the indicator light.
3. Using both hands, press the hand
-
held transmitter
button and the desired button on the HomeLink
Transmitter. Continue to press both buttons through
Step 4.
4. Hold down both buttons until you see the light on
the HomeLink Transmitter flash rapidly. The rapid
flashing indicates that the HomeLink Transmitter has
been programmed. Release both buttons once the
light starts to flash rapidly.
If you have trouble programming the HomeLink
Transmitter, make sure that you have followed the
directions exactly as described and that the battery in the
hand
-
held transmitter is not dead. If you still cannot
program it, rotate the hand
-
held transmitter end over end
and try again. The HomeLink Transmitter may not work
with older garage door openers that do not meet current
Federal Consumer Safety Standards. If you cannot
program the transmitter after repeated attempts, refer to
“Training a Garage Door Opener with Rolling Codes”
later in this section or contact the manufacturer of the
unit at 1

Be sure to keep the original hand
-
held transmitter
in case you need to erase and reprogram the
HomeLink Transmitter.
Canadian Owners: During programming, the
hand
-
held transmitter may automatically stop
transmitting after one or two seconds. In this case,
you should press and re
-
press the button on the
hand
-
held transmitter every two seconds without ever
releasing the button on the HomeLink Transmitter.
Release both buttons when the indicator light on the
HomeLink Transmitter begins to flash rapidly.
