battery.
• The HomeLink® buttons that are located in the overhead console or
sunvisor designate the three different HomeLink® channels.
• The HomeLink® indicator is located above the center button.
Before You Begin Programming
HomeLink®
• Be sure that your vehicle is parked
outside of the garage before you
begin programming.
• For more 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.
• Erase all channels before you begin programming. To erase the channels,
place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position, then press and hold
the two outside HomeLink® buttons (I and III) for up 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 www.HomeLink.com for information
or assistance.
Programming A Rolling Code
• For programming Garage Door Openers that were manufactured after
1995. These Garage 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.
• Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position.
• Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 in (3 to 8 cm) away from the
HomeLink® button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink®
indicator light in view.
• Simultaneously press and hold both the HomeLink® button you want to
program and the hand-held transmitter button.
• Continue to hold both buttons and observe the indicator light. The
Homelink® indicator 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.
• At the garage door opener motor (in the garage), locate the “LEARN” or
“TRAINING” button. This can usually be found where the hanging
antenna wire is attached to the garage door opener motor. Firmly press
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 pressed.
• Return to the vehicle and press the programmed HomeLink® button
twice (holding the button for two seconds each time). If the device is
plugged in and activates, programming is complete.
NOTE:If the device does not activate, press the button a third time (for two
seconds) to complete the training.
• To program the remaining two HomeLink® buttons, repeat each step for
each remaining button. DO NOT erase the channels.

Programming A Non-Rolling Code
• For programming Garage Door Openers manufactured before 1995.
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position.
• Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 in (3 to 8 cm) away from the
HomeLink® button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink®
indicator light in view.
• Simultaneously press and hold both the HomeLink® button you want to
program and the hand-held transmitter button.
• Continue to hold both buttons and observe the indicator light. The
Homelink® indicator 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.
• Press and hold the programmed HomeLink® button and observe the
indicator light.
NOTE:
• If the indicator light stays on constantly, programming is complete and the
garage door (or device) should activate when the HomeLink® button is
pressed.
• To program the two remaining HomeLink® buttons, repeat each step for
each remaining button. DO NOT erase the channels.
Using HomeLink®
• To operate, press 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 device 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.
