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.
1. To begin, push and hold the 2 outer HomeLink buttons (to clear the memory)
until the indicator light
Ablinks (after 20
seconds). Release both buttons.
2. Position the end of the hand-held trans- mitter 1-3 inches away from the
HomeLink surface.
SIC3612
2-56Instruments and controls

3. Using both hands, simultaneously pushand 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 indica-
tor 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 pro-
gramming. To activate the garage door or
other programmed device, push and hold
the programmed HomeLink button - re-
leasing when the device begins to acti-
vate.
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 opener’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 per-
forming this step.
7. Quickly (within 30 seconds of pushingand 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 HOMELINKFOR
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).
REPROGRAMMING A SINGLE
HOMELINK BUTTON
To reprogram a HomeLink Universal Trans-
ceiver button, complete the following.
1. Push and hold the desired HomeLink button. Do notrelease the button until
step 4 has been completed.
2. When the indicator light begins to flash slowly (after 20 seconds), position the
hand-held transmitter 2 to 5 in (50 to 127
mm) away from the HomeLink surface.
3. Push and hold the hand-held transmitter button.
4. The HomeLink indicator light will flash,
first slowly and then rapidly. When the
indicator light begins to flash rapidly,
release both buttons.
The HomeLink Universal Transceiver button
has now been reprogrammed. The new device
can be activated by pushing the HomeLink
2-58Instruments and controls

button that was just programmed. This proce-
dure will not affect any other programmed
HomeLinkbuttons.
IF YOUR VEHICLE IS STOLEN
If your vehicle is stolen, you should change the
codes of any non-rolling code device that has
been programmed into HomeLink. Consult the
Owner’s Manual of each device or call the
manufacturer or retailer of those devices for
additional information. When your vehicle is recovered, you will need to
reprogram the HomeLink
Universal Transceiver
with your new transmitter information.

A key number plate is supplied with your keys.
Record the key number and keep it in a safe
place (such as your wallet), not in the vehicle. If
you lose your keys, see an INFINITI retailer for
duplicates by using the key number. INFINITI
does not record any key numbers so it is very
important to keep track of your key number
plate.
A key number is only necessary when you have
lost all keys and do not have one to duplicate
from. If you still have a key, this key can be
duplicated by an INFINITI retailer.

many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be registered
and used with one vehicle. The new keys must
be registered by an INFINITI retailer prior to use
with the Intelligent Key system and INFINITI
Vehicle Immobilizer System of your vehicle.
Since the registration process requires erasing
all memory in the Intelligent Key componentswhen registering new keys, be sure to take all
Intelligent Keys that you have to the INFINITI
retailer.
It is possible that the Intelligent Key functions
become canceled. Contact an INFINITI retailer.
