Retain the original transmitter for use in other vehicles as well as for
future programming procedures (i.e. new HomeLink
威
equipped vehicle
purchase). It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the
programmed Homelink
威
buttons be erased for security purposes, refer to
Programming
in this section.
Programming
Do not program HomeLink
威
with the vehicle parked in the garage.
Note:
Your vehicle may require the ignition switch to be turned to the
ACC position for programming and/or operation of the HomeLink
威
. It is
also recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLink
威
for quicker
training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
1. Position the end of your
hand-held transmitter 1–3 inches
(2–8 cm) away from the HomeLink
威
button you wish to program (located
on your visor) while keeping the
indicator light in view.
2. Simultaneously press and hold
both the chosen HomeLink
威
and
hand-held transmitter buttons until the HomeLink
威
indicator light
changes from a slow to a rapidly blinking light. Now you may release
both the HomeLink
威
and hand-held transmitter buttons.
Note:
Some entry gates and garage door openers may require you to
replace Step 2 with procedures noted in the “Gate Operator and
Canadian Programming” in this section for Canadian residents.
3. Firmly
press, hold for five seconds and release
the programmed
HomeLink
威
button up to two separate times to activate the door. If the
door does not activate, press and hold the just-trained HomeLink
威
button and observe the indicator light.
•
If the indicator light
stays on constantly, programming is complete
and your device should activate when the HomeLink
威
button is pressed
and released.
•
If the indicator light blinks
rapidly for two seconds and then turns
to a constant light continue with “Programming” Steps 4 through
6
to complete programming of a rolling code equipped device (most
commonly a garage door opener).
4. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in the garage,
locate the “learn” or “smart” button (usually near where the hanging
antenna wire is attached to the unit).
