UNIVERSAL GARAGE DOOR OPENER (HomeLink®)
HomeLink®replaces up to three hand-held transmitters that operate devices such
as garage door openers, motorized gates, lighting or home security systems.The
HomeLink® unit is powered by your vehicles 12 Volt battery.
HomeLink® buttons that are located in the sun-visor designate the three different
HomeLink® channels that can be programmed.
A HomeLink® indicator lightis located above the center button.
Before You Begin Programming
HomeLink®
Ensure that your vehicle is parked outside
of the garage before you begin program-
ming.
For efficient programming and accurate
transmission of the radio-frequency signal, it
is recommended that a new battery be
placed in the hand-held transmitter of the
device that is being programmed to the
HomeLink® system.
To erase the channels, place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position, then push and
hold the two outside HomeLink® buttons (I and III) for up to 20 seconds or until the
red indicator flashes.
NOTE:
Erasing all channels should only be performed when programming HomeLink® for the
first time.Do not erase channels when programming additional buttons.
If you have any problems, or require assistance, please call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 or, on
the Internet at HomeLink.com for information or assistance.
Programming A Rolling Code
NOTE:
For programming Garage Door Openers that were manufactured after 1995.These Ga-
rage Door Openers can be identified by the “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button located where
the hanging antenna is attached to the Garage Door Opener.It is NOT the button that
is normally used to open and close the door.The name and color of the button may
vary by manufacturer.
1.Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position.
2.Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink®
button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink® indicator light in view.
3.Push and hold the HomeLink® button you want to program while you push and hold
the hand-held transmitter button.

4.Continue to hold both buttons and observe the indicator light.The HomeLink® indi-
cator will flash slowly and then rapidly after HomeLink® has received the frequency
signal from the hand-held transmitter.Release both buttons after the indicator light
changes from slow to rapid.
5.At the garage door opener motor (in the garage), locate the “LEARN” or “TRAIN-
ING” button.This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to
the garage door opener motor.Firmly push and release the “LEARN” or “TRAINING”
button.
NOTE:
You have 30 seconds in which to initiate the next step after the LEARN button has been
pushed.
6.Return to the vehicle and push the programmed HomeLink® button twice (holding
the button for two seconds each time).If the device is plugged in and activates, pro-
gramming is complete.
NOTE:
If the device does not activate, push the button a third time (for two seconds) to com-
plete the training.
7.To program the remaining two HomeLink® buttons, repeat each step for each re-
maining button.DO NOT erase the channels.
Programming A Non-Rolling Code
NOTE:
For programming Garage Door Openers manufactured before 1995.
1.Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position.
2.Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink®
button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink® indicator light in view.
3.Push and hold the HomeLink® button you want to program while you push and hold
the hand-held transmitter button.
4.Continue to hold both buttons and observe the indicator light.The HomeLink® indi-
cator will flash slowly and then rapidly after HomeLink® has received the frequency
signal from the hand-held transmitter.Release both buttons after the indicator light
changes from slow to rapid.
5.Push and hold the programmed HomeLink® button and observe the indicator light.If
the indicator light stays on constantly, programming is complete and the garage door
(or device) should activate when the HomeLink® button is pushed.
6.To program the two remaining HomeLink® buttons, repeat each step for each re-
maining button.DO NOT erase the channels.

Using HomeLink®
To operate, push and release the programmed HomeLink®button.Activation will
now occur for the programmed device (i.e., garage door opener, gate operator, security
system, entry door lock, home/office lighting, etc.,).The hand-held transmitter of the de-
vice may also be used at any time.
WARNING!
•Your motorized door or gate will open and close while you are programming the
universal transceiver.Do not program the transceiver if people or pets are in the
path of the door or gate.
•Do not run your vehicle in a closed garage or confined area while programming
the transceiver.Exhaust gas from your vehicle contains Carbon Monoxide (CO)
which is odorless and colorless.Carbon Monoxide is poisonous when inhaled and
can cause you and others to be severely injured or killed.
POWER INVERTER — IF EQUIPPED
There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt power in-
verter outlet located on the back of the
center console.This outlet can power cellu-
lar phones, electronics and other low
power devices requiring power up to 150
Wa t t s.
•To turn on the power outlet, simply plug
in the device.The outlet automatically
turns off when the device is unplugged.
NOTE:
The power inverter is designed with built-in overload protection.If the power rating of
150 Watts is exceeded, the power inverter will automatically shut down.Once the elec-
trical device has been removed from the outlet, the inverter should automatically reset.If
the power rating exceeds approximately 170 Watts, the power inverter may have to be
reset manually.To reset the inverter manually, unplug the device and plug it in again.To
avoid overloading the circuit, check the power ratings on electrical devices prior to using
the inverter.
