Programming Steps 8-10 to complete programming of
a rolling code equipped device (most commonly a
garage door opener).
8. 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.
9. Firmly press and release the“learn”or“smart”but-
ton. (The name and color of the button may vary by
manufacturer.)
NOTE:There are 30 seconds in which to initiate Step 10.
10. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two
seconds and release the programmed universal trans-
ceiver button. Repeat the“press/hold/release”sequence
a second time, and, depending on the brand of the garage
door opener (or other rolling code equipped device),
repeat this sequence a third time to complete the pro-
gramming.
The universal transceiver should now activate your roll-
ing code equipped device.If you do not successfully program the universal trans-
ceiver to learn the signal of your hand-held transmitter,
call toll free for customer assistance at 1-800-355-3515, or
on the internet at www.homelink.com.
Gate Operator/Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter sig-
nals to“time-out”(or quit) after several seconds of
transmission. This may not be long enough for the
universal transceiver to pick up the signal during pro-
gramming. 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 Pro-
gramming Step 5 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.
5. Continue to press and hold the universal transceiver
button while you press and release every two seconds
(“cycle”) your hand-held transmitter until the frequency

•OK
•-1.0 Q (-1.0L)
•-1.5 Q (-1.5L)
•-2.0 Q (-2.0L)
•HI
The indicated amount of oil must be added to the engine
if the message -2.0 Q (-2.0L) blinks and a signal sounds.
The HI message indicates that the excess oil must be
removed from the pan to avoid possible engine or
catalytic converter damage. If the ISO oil level icon and
“clock”icon remain on when attempting to check oil
level and no message follows, or if the low engine oil
level warning lamp comes on, a malfunction in the
engine oil level system is indicated. A conveniently
located dipstick allows manual checking of the oil level.If no leaks are noted, continue to drive to the nearest
service station where the engine oil should be topped to
the“full”mark on the dipstick with an approved oil.
29. Low Fuel Warning Light
When the fuel level drops to about 2 gallons (7.5
liters), this symbol will light and remains lit until
fuel is added.
