BEFORE PROGRAMMING THE HOMELINK ®
REMOTE
CAUTION
Garage door openers, gates, or other devices may
operate while programming this remote. Ensure all
people, pets, and objects are clear of the garage
door, gate, or other devices to prevent personal
injury or property damage.
An existing door opener remote is required to program
your HomeLink
® remote. HomeLink ® recommends
installing a new battery in your existing remote for
more accurate programming of the HomeLink
®
remote.
If the HomeLink
® remote will be programmed to
operate TWO openers, and only ONE of them is
manufactured by Sommer, then you must program the
Sommer opener first. See “SOMMER ROLLING
CODE PROGRAMMING” below.
IMPORTANT
If you sell your vehicle, be sure to either remove the
HomeLink ® remote switch module
q
or erase its
memory! See “ERASING THE HOMELINK ®
REMOTE MEMORY (BOTH BUTTONS)”.
NOTE
Garage door openers manufactured after 1995 may
be equipped with rolling code protection. If this is the
case with your opener you may need a stepladder or
other appropriate safe device to reach the “LEARN”
or “SMART” button located on the opener.
PROGRAMMING A NEW HOMELINK ®
REMOTE
NOTE
The HomeLink ® Remote is the same unit as the
installed switch module
q
.
1. Hold an existing remote 1-3 inches away from the
installed switch module
q
, ensuring you can
clearly see the switch module indicator light.
2. Using both hands, simultaneously press and hold
the existing remote button AND one of the buttons
on switch module
q
(one dot or two dots, as
desired).
DO NOT release either button until the switch
module indicator light flashes slowly, and then
changes to solid or rapid flashing. The change in
flashing indicates the frequency signal has been
learned.
NOTE
Some garage door openers or gate operators may
require “cycling” the existing remote as follows:
Using both hands, PRESS AND HOLD the desired
button on switch module
q
while simultaneously
PRESSING AND RELEASING (cycling) the existing
remote button at 2 second intervals.
DO NOT release the switch module button until its
indicator light flashes slowly, and then changes to
solid or rapid flashing. The change in flashing
indicates the frequency signal has been learned.
3. Press and hold the programmed switch module
q
button and observe its indicator light:
• If the indicator light is solid/continuous,
programming is complete. Your device should
activate when the button is pressed and
released.
Once programmed, both your HomeLink ®
remote and/or the original remote may be used
to activate the device (e.g. garage door, entry
lock, gate, etc.).
To program the remaining HomeLink ® remote
button, repeat Steps 1–3.
• If the indicator light blinks rapidly, proceed to
“ROLLING CODE DEVICES”.
