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 you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator
by using the
“
Programming
”
procedures
(regardless of where you live), replace
“
Programming HomeLink
”
step 2 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.
Continue to press and hold the HomeLink
button while you
press and release
―
every two seconds (
“
cycle
”
) your hand-
held transmitter until the frequency signal
has successfully been accepted by
HomeLink. (The indicator light will flash
slowly and then rapidly.) Proceed with
“
Programming
”
step 3 to complete.
Operating the HomeLink System
Press the programmed HomeLink button
to operate a programmed device. The
code will continue being transmitted for a
maximum of 20 seconds.
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. The indicator light will begin to flash
after 20 seconds. Without releasing the
HomeLink button, proceed with
“
Programming
”
- step 1.
Erasing Programmed HomeLink
Buttons
To erase the existing programming from
all three operating channels, press and
hold the two outside buttons (
, )
on the auto-dimming mirror until the
HomeLink indicator light begins to flash
after approximately 10 seconds.
Verify that the programming has been
erased when you resell the vehicle.
