• Be sure that your vehicle is parked outsideof the garage before you begin
programming.
• For more efficient programming and accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency signal it is recommended

hand-held transmitter of the device that is
being programmed to the HomeLink®
system.
• Erase all channels before you begin programming. To erase the channels, place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position, then press and hold the two outside
HomeLink® buttons (I and III) for up 20 seconds or until the red indicator flashes.
NOTE:
• Erasing all channels should only be performed when programming HomeLink® for the firsttime. Do not erase channels when programming additional buttons.

that is normally used to open and close the door. The name and color of the button may
vary by manufacturer.
