HomeLink  Universal Transceiver provides a
convenient way to consolidate the functions of
up to three individual hand-held transmitters
into one built-in device.
HomeLink  Universal Transceiver:
● Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF) de-
vices such as garage doors, gates, home and
office lighting, entry door locks and security
systems.
● Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No
separate batteries are required. If the vehi-
cle’s battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLink  will retain all program-
ming.
Once HomeLink  Universal Transceiver is pro-
grammed, retain the original transmitter for fu-
ture programming procedures (Example: new ve-
hicle purchases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomeLink  Universal Transceiver
buttons should be erased for security purposes.
For additional information, see “PROGRAMMING
HomeLink  ” later in this section. WARNING● Do not use HomeLink  Universal Transceiver
with any garage door opener that lacks
safety stop and reverse features as required
by federal safety standards. (These stan-
dards became effective for opener models
manufactured after April 1, 1982.) A garage
door opener which cannot detect an object in
the path of a closing garage door and then
automatically stop and reverse, does not
meet current federal safety standards. Using
a garage door opener without these features
increases the risk of serious injury or death.
● During programming procedure, your garage
door or security gate may open or close.
Make sure that people and objects are clear
of the garage door, gate, etc. that you are
programming.
● Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off
while programming HomeLink  Universal
Transceiver. PROGRAMMING HOMELINK To program your HomeLink  Transceiver to op-
erate a garage door, gate, or entry door opener,
home or office lighting, you need to be at the
same location as the device. Note: Garage door
openers (manufactured after 1996) have “rolling
code protection”. To program a garage door
opener equipped with “rolling code protection”;
you will need to use a ladder to get up to the
garage door opener motor to be able to access
the “smart or learn” program button.HOMELINK  UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (if
so equipped)

1. To begin, push and hold the 2 outer
HomeLink  buttons (to clear the memory)
until the indicator light
 A
blinks (after 20
seconds). Release both buttons.
2. Position the end of the hand-held trans-
mitter 1-3 inches away from the
HomeLink  surface. 3. Using both hands, simultaneously push
and hold both the HomeLink  button you
want to program and the hand-held trans-
mitter button.
DO NOT release the buttons until step 4
has been completed.
4. Hold down both buttons until the indicator
light on HomeLink  flashes, changing from
a “slow blink” to a “rapid blink”. This
could take up to 90 seconds. When the
indicator light blinks rapidly, both buttons
may be released. The rapidly flashing light
indicates successful programming. To ac-
tivate the garage door or other pro-
grammed device, push and hold the pro-
grammed HomeLink  button - releasing
when the device begins to activate. 5. If the indicator light on HomeLink  blinks
rapidly for two seconds and then turns
solid, HomeLink  has picked up a “rolling
code” garage door opener signal. You will
need to proceed with the next steps to
train HomeLink  , completing the pro-
gramming may require a ladder and an-
other person for convenience.
6. Push and release the program button
located on the garage door opener’s mo-
tor to activate the “training mode”. This
button is usually located near the an-
tenna wire that hangs down from the
motor. If the wire originates from under a
light lens, you will need to remove the
lens to access the training button.
NOTE:
Once you have pushed and released the
training button on the garage door open-
er’s motor and the “training light” is lit,
you have 30 seconds in which to perform
step 7. For convenience, use the help of a
second person to assist when performing
this step.SIC3612 SIC3613

7. Quickly (within 30 seconds of pushing
and releasing the garage door opener
training button) and firmly push and re-
lease the HomeLink  button you’ve just
programmed. Push and release the
HomeLink  button up to three times to
complete the training.
8. Your HomeLink  button should now be
programmed. To program the remaining
HomeLink  buttons for additional door or
gate openers, follow steps 2 through 8
only.
NOTE:
Do not repeat step 1 unless you want to “clear”
all previously programmed HomeLink  buttons.
If you have any questions or are having diffi-
culty programming your HomeLink  buttons,
please refer to the HomeLink  web site at:
www.homelink.com or call 1-800-355-3515.
PROGRAMMING HOMELINK  FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS Prior to 1992, D.O.C. regulations required hand-
held transmitters to stop transmitting after 2
seconds. To program your hand-held transmit-
ter to HomeLink  , continue to push and hold
the HomeLink  button (note steps 2 through 4
under “Programming HomeLink  ”) while you push and re-push (“cycle”) your hand-held
transmitter every 2 seconds until the indicator
light flashes rapidly (indicating successful pro-
gramming).
NOTE:
If programming a garage door opener, etc., it is
advised to unplug the device during the “cy-
cling” process to prevent possible damage to
the garage door opener components.
OPERATING THE HOMELINK 
UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER HomeLink  Universal Transceiver (once pro-
grammed) may now be used to activate the
garage door, etc. To operate, simply push the
appropriate programmed HomeLink  Universal
Transceiver button. The red indicator light will
illuminate while the signal is being transmitted.
PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-DIAGNOSIS If HomeLink  does not quickly learn the hand-
held transmitter information:
● replace the hand-held transmitter batteries
with new batteries.
● position the hand-held transmitter with its
battery area facing away from the
HomeLink  surface. ● push and hold both the HomeLink  and
hand-held transmitter buttons without inter-
ruption.
● position the hand-held transmitter 2 to 5 in
(50 to 127 mm) away from the HomeLink 
surface. Hold the transmitter in that position
for up to 15 seconds. If HomeLink  is not
programmed within that time, try holding
the transmitter in another position - keeping
the indicator light in view at all times.
If you continue to have programming difficul-
ties, please contact the INFINITI Consumer Af-
fairs Department. The phone numbers are lo-
cated in the Foreword of this Owner’s Manual.
CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATION Individual buttons cannot be cleared, however
to clear all programming, push and hold the two
outside buttons and release when the indicator
light begins to flash (in approximately 20 sec-
onds).
