Keep the original hand-held
transmitter for use in other vehicles
as well as for future Universal
Remote system programming.
It is also recommended that
upon the sale of the vehicle, the
programmed Universal Remote
system buttons be erased for
security purposes. See“Erasing
Universal Remote System Buttons”
later in this section.
When programming a garage door,
park outside of the garage. Park
directly in line with and facing the
garage door opener motor-head
or gate motor-head. Be sure that
people and objects are clear of
the garage door or gate being
programmed.
It is recommended that a new
battery be installed in the hand-held
transmitter for quicker and more
accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency signal.Programming the Universal

Programming a garage door opener
involves time-sensitive actions, so
read the entire procedure before
starting. Otherwise, the device will
time out and the procedure will have
to be repeated.
To program up to three devices:
1. Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter about 3 to 8 cm
(1 to 3 in) away from the
Universal Remote system
buttons while keeping
the indicator light in view.
The hand-held transmitter was
supplied by the manufacturer
of the garage door opener
receiver (motor-head unit). 2. At the same time, press
and hold both the hand-held
transmitter button and one
of the three Universal Remote
system buttons to be used to
operate the garage door. Do not
release the Universal Remote
system button or the hand-held
transmitter button until the
indicator light changes from a
slowly to a rapidly flashing light.
You now may release both
buttons.
Some entry gates and garage
door openers may require
substitution of Step 2 with
the procedure noted in “Gate
Operator and Canadian
Programming” later in this
section.

Canadian radio-frequency laws
require transmitter signals to time
out or quit after several seconds of
transmission. This may not be long
enough for the Universal Remote
system to pick up the signal during
programming. Similarly, some U.S.
gate operators are manufactured to
time out in the same manner.If you live in Canada, or you are
having difficulty programming a
gate operator or garage door
opener by using the
“Programming
the Universal Remote System”
procedures, regardless of where
you live, replace Step 2 under
“Programming the Universal Remote
System” with the following:
Continue to press and hold
the Universal Remote system
button while you press and
release every two seconds (cycle)
the hand-held transmitter button
until the frequency signal has
been successfully accepted by
the Universal Remote system.
The Universal Remote system
indicator light will flash slowly at
first and then rapidly. Proceed with
Step 3 under “Programming the
Universal Remote System” to
complete.
Universal Remote System

All programmed buttons should be
erased when the vehicle is sold or
the lease ends.
To erase all programmed buttons
on the Universal Remote system
device:
1. Press and hold down the two outside buttons until the
