ically controls the glare from the
headlights of the vehicles behind you

into reverse (R), the mirror will auto-
matically go to the brightest setting in
order to improve the drivers view

Retain the original transmitter for
future programming procedures (i.e.,
new vehicle purchase). It is also sug-
gested that upon the sale of the vehi-
cle, the programmed HomeLink
®but-

portion of this text).
Programming
Your vehicle may require the ignition
switch to be turned to the ACC posi-
tion for programming and/or opera-
tion of HomeLink
®. It is also recom-
mended that a new battery be
replaced in the hand-held transmitter

HomeLink
®for quicker training and
accurate transmission of the radio-
frequency.
Follow these steps to train your
HomeLink
®mirror: 1. When programming the buttons for
the first time, press and hold the
left and center buttons ( , )
simultaneously until the indicator
light begins to flash after approxi-
mately 20 seconds. (This proce-
dure erases the factory-set default
codes. Do not perform this step to
program additional hand-held
transmitters.)
✽ ✽NOTICE
For non rolling code garage door
openers, follow steps 2 - 3.
For rolling code garage door open-
ers, follow steps 2 - 6.
For Canadian Programming, please
follow the Canadian Programming
section.
For help with determining whether
your garage is non-rolling code or

garage door openers owner’s manu-
al or contact HomeLink
