Programming HomeLink
®
✽
✽
NOTICE
• When programming a garage door
opener, it is advised to park the vehi-
cle outside of the garage.
• It is recommended that a new battery
be placed in the hand-held transmit-
ter of the device being programmed to
HomeLink
®
for quicker training and
accurate transmission of the radio-
frequency signal.
• Some vehicles may require the igni-
tion switch to be turned to the second
(or "accessories") position for pro-
gramming and/or
operation of
HomeLink.
• In the event that there are still pro-
gramming difficulties or questions
after following the programming steps
listed below, contact HomeLink
®
at:
www.homelink.com or 1-800-355-
3515.
Standard programming
To train most devices, follow these
instructions:
1. For first-time programming, press and
hold the two outside buttons,
HomeLink
®
Channel 1 and Channel 3
Buttons, until the indicator light begins
to flash (after 20 seconds). Release
both buttons. Do not hold the buttons
for longer than 30 seconds.
2. Position the end of your hand-held
transmitter 1-3 inches (2-8 cm) away
from the HomeLink
®
buttons while
keeping the indicator light in view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold both
the HomeLink
®
and hand-held trans-
mitter button. DO NOT release the but-
tons until step 4 has been completed.
4. While continuing to hold the buttons
the red Indicator Status LED will flash
slowly and then rapidly after
HomeLink
®
successfully trains to the
frequency signal from the hand-held
transmitter. Release both buttons.
5. Press and hold the just-trained
HomeLink
®
button and observe the red
Status Indicator LED. If the indicator
light stays on constantly, programming
is complete and your device should
activate when the HomeLink
®
button is
pressed and released.
6. To program the remaining two
HomeLink
®
buttons, follow steps 2
through 5.
Rolling code programming
Rolling code devices which are "code-
protected" and manufactured after 1996
may be determined by the following:
• Reference the device owner's manual
for verification.
• The handheld transmitter appears to
program the HomeLink
®
Universal
Transceiver but does not activate the
device.
• Press and hold the trained HomeLink
button. The device has the rolling code
feature if the indicator light flashes rap-
idly and then turns solid after 2 sec-
onds.
To train rolling code devices, follow these
instructions:
1. At the garage door opener receiver
(motor-head unit) in the garage, locate
the "learn" or "smart" button. This can
usually be found where the hanging
antenna wire is attached to the motor-
head unit. Exact location and color of
the button may vary by garage door
opener brand.
