HOMELINKTUNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER WITH TRAVELNOTET
(IF EQUIPPED)
The HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver, located on the driver's visor,
provides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held transmitters
with a single built-in device. This feature will learn the radio frequency
codes of most current transmitters to operate garage doors, entry gates,
security systems, entry door locks, and home or office lighting.
When programming your HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver, to a
garage door or gate be sure that people and objects are out of
the way to prevent potential harm or damage.
Do not use the HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by U.S.
federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door which cannot detect
an object, signaling the door to stop and reverse, does not meet current
U.S. federal safety standards. For more information on this matter, call
toll-free: 1±800±355±3515 or on the Internet atHomeLink.jci.com.
Programming
Do not program the HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver with the
vehicle parked in the garage.
1. Prepare for programming the
HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver by
erasing the three factory default
codes by holding down the two
outside buttons until the red light
begins to flash after 20 seconds.
Release both buttons.
2. Hold the end of your hand-held
transmitter 5±14 cm (2±5 inches) away from the HomeLinktUniversal
Transceiver surface (located on your visor) while keeping the red light in
view.

3. Using both hands simultaneously
press and hold the hand-held
transmitter button and the desired
HomeLinktbutton. Do not release
the buttons until step 4 has been
completed.
Some entry gates and garage door
openers may require you to replace
step 3 with the procedure in the ªCanadian Programingº section.
4. The red light will flash slowly and then rapidly. Release both buttons
when the red light flashes rapidly.
5. Follow steps 2 through 4 to program the remaining two buttons.
If you do not successfully program the HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver
after repeated attempts, refer toRolling code programingwhich
follows, or call toll-free customer assistance: 1±800±355±3515 or on the
Internet atHomeLink.jci.com.
Operating the HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
Once programmed, the HomeLinkt
Universal Transceiver can be used in
place of hand-held transmitters. To
operate, simply press and release
the appropriate HomeLinktbutton
(the red light will illuminate,
indicating the signal is being
transmitted).
Rolling code programming
Rolling code garage door openers (or other rolling code devices) which
are ªcode protectedº and manufactured after 1996, may be determined
by the following:
²Reference the device owner's manual for verification
²The hand-held transmitter appears to program the HomeLinkt
Universal Transceiver but does not activate the device.
²Press and hold the trained HomeLinktbutton. The device has the
rolling code feature if the indicator light flashes rapidly and then turns
solid after two seconds.

door openers may require this
procedure to be done a third time
to complete the training.)
The 2nd or 3rd press from step 3 will activate the door. The HomeLinkt
Universal Transceiver has now been trained to the receiver. The
remaining two buttons may now be programmed if this has not
previously been done.

however, to erase the three
programmed buttons:
1. Hold down the two outside
buttons until the red light begins to
flash after 20 seconds.

For maximum vehicle performance, keep the following information in
mind when adding accessories or equipment to your vehicle:
²When adding accessories, equipment, passengers and luggage to your
vehicle, do not exceed the total weight capacity of the vehicle or of
the front or rear axle (GVWR or GAWR as indicated on the Safety
compliance certification label). Consult your dealer for specific weight
information.
²The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Canadian Radio
Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulate the use of mobile
communications systems - such as two-way radios, telephones and
theft alarms - that are equipped with radio transmitters. Any such
equipment installed in your vehicle should comply with FCC or CRTC
regulations and should be installed only by a qualified service
technician.
²Mobile communications systems may harm the operation of your
vehicle, particularly if they are not properly designed for automotive
use or are not properly installed. When operated, such systems may
cause the engine to stumble or stall or cause the transmission to be
damaged or operate improperly. In addition, such systems may be
damaged or their performance may be affected by operating your
vehicle. (Citizens band [CB] transceivers, garage door openers and
other transmitters with outputs of five watts or less will not ordinarily
affect your vehicle's operation.)
²Ford cannot assume responsibility for any adverse effects or damage
that may result from the use of such equipment.
