4Operating HomeLink
To operate, simply press the pro-
grammed HomeLink button. Activation
will now occur for the trained product
(garage door, security system, entry door
lock, estate gate, or home or office light-
ing). For convenience, the hand-held
transmitter of the device may also be
used at any time. The HomeLink
Wireless Controls System (once pro-
grammed) or the original hand-held
transmitter may be used to activate the
device (e.g. garage door, entry door lock,
etc.). In the event that there are still pro-
gramming difficulties, contact HomeLink
at 1-800-355-3515 or on the internet at
www.homelink.com. Erasing programmed HomeLink but-
tons
To erase the three programmed buttons
(individual buttons cannot be erased):
Press and hold the left and center
buttons simultaneously, until the indi-
cator light begins to flash (approxi-
mately 20 seconds). Release both but-
tons. Do not hold for longer than 30
seconds.
HomeLink is now in the train (or learning)
mode and can be programmed at any
time. Reprogramming a single HomeLink
button
To program a device to HomeLink using
a HomeLink button previously trained,
follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink
button. Do NOT release until step 4
has been completed.
2. When the indicator light begins to flash slowly (after 20 seconds), position the
hand-held transmitter 2-8 cm (1 to 3
inches) away from the HomeLink sur-
face.
3. Press and hold the hand-held transmit- ter button (or press and “cycle” - as
described in “Canadian Programming”).
4. The HomeLink indicator light will flash, first slowly and then rapidly. When the
indicator light begins to flash rapidly,
release both buttons.
The previous device has now been
erased and the new device can be acti-
vated by pushing the HomeLink button
that has just been programmed. This pro-
cedure will not affect any other pro-
grammed HomeLink buttons.
