HOMELINKUNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER
The HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver, located on the overhead console,
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 gate
operators, security systems, entry door locks, and home or office lighting.
When programming your HomeLinkUniversal 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 HomeLinkUniversal 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 stopand reverse, does not meet current
U.S. federal safety standards. For more information, contact HomeLink
at:www.homelink.comor1–800–355–3515.
Retain the original transmitter for use in other vehicles as well as for
future programming procedures (i.e. new HomeLinkequipped vehicle
purchase). It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomelinkUniversal Transceiver buttons be erased for
security purposes, refer toProgrammingin this section.
Programming
Do not program the HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver with the
vehicle parked in the garage.
Note:Some vehicles may require the ignition switch to be turned to the
second (or “ACC”) position for programming and/or operation of the
HomeLink. It is also recommended that a new battery be placed in the

hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLinkfor
quicker training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
1. Press and hold the two outside
buttons releasing only when the red
light begins to flash after 20
seconds.Do notrepeat step one to
program additional hand-held
transmitters to the remaining two
HomeLinkbuttons. This will erase
previously programmed hand-held
transmitter signals into HomeLink.
2. Position the end of your
hand-held transmitter 2–8 cm (1–3 inches) away from the HomeLink
Universal Transceiver surface (located on your overhead console) while
keeping the red light in view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold
both the HomeLinkand hand-held
transmitter button.Do not release
the buttons until step 4 has been
completed.
Some entry gates and garage door
openers may require you to replace
step3 with procedures noted in the
“Gate Operator and Canadian
Programming” section for Canadian
residents.
4. The red light will flash slowly and then rapidly. Release both buttons
when the red light flashes rapidly. (The rapid flashing light indicates
acceptance of the hand-held transmitters’ radio frequency signals.)
5. Press and hold the just-trained HomeLinkbutton and observe the red
light. If the light is a constant red, programming is complete and your
device should activate when the HomeLinkbutton is pressed and
released.Note:To program the remaining two HomeLinkbuttons,
begin with step2 in the “Programming” section —do notrepeat step 1.
If the red light blinks rapidly for two seconds and then turns to a
continuous red, proceed with steps 6 through 8 to complete
programming of a rolling code equipped device.
6. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in the garage,
locate the “learn” or “smart” button (usually near where the hanging
antenna wire is attached to the unit).

7. Press and release the “learn” or “smart” button. (The name and color
of the button may vary by manufacturer.)
Note:There are 30 seconds in which to initiate stepeight.
8. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two seconds and
release the HomeLinkbutton. Repeat the press/hold/release sequence
again, and, depending on the brand of the garage door opener (or other
rolling code equipped device), repeat this sequence a third time to
complete the programming.
HomeLinkshould now activate your rolling code equipped device. To
program additional HomeLinkbuttons begin with step2 in the
“Programming” section. For questions or comments, please contact
HomeLink atwww.homelink.comor1–800–355–3515.
Operating the HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver
To operate, simply press and release
the appropriate HomeLinkbutton.
Activation will now occur for the
trained product (garage door, gate
operator, security system, entry
door lock, or home or office lighting
etc.). For convenience, the
hand-held transmitter of the device
may also be used at any time. In the
event that there are still
programming difficulties, contact
Homelinkatwww.homelink.comor1–800–355–3515.
Erasing HomeLinkbuttons
To erase the three programmed
buttons (individual buttons cannot
be erased):
•Press and hold the two outer
HomeLinkbuttons until the red
indicator light begins to
flash-after 20 seconds. Release
both buttons. Do not hold for
longer that 30 seconds.
HomeLinkis now in the train (or
learning) mode and can be programmed at any time beginning with step
2inthe“Programming”section.

Reprogramming a single HomeLinkbutton
To program a device to HomeLinkusing a HomeLinkbutton previously
trained, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLinkbutton.Do NOTrelease the
button.
2. The red indicator light will begin to flash after 20 seconds. Without
releasing the HomeLinkbutton, follow step2 in the “Programming”
section.
For questions or comments, contact HomeLinkatwww.homelink.com
or1–800–355–3515.
Gate Operator & Canadian Programming
During programming, your
hand-held transmitter may
automatically stoptransmitting —
not allowing enough time for
HomeLinkto accept the signal
from the hand-held transmitter.
After completing steps 1 and 2
outlined in the“Programming”
section, replace step 3 with the
following:
Note:If programming a garage door opener or gate operator, it is
advised to unplug the device during the “cycling” process to prevent
overheating.
•Continue to press and hold the HomeLinkbutton (note step3 in the
“Programming” section) while you press and release —every two
seconds(“cycle”) your hand-held transmitter until the frequency
signal has been accepted by the HomeLink. The red indicator light
will flash slowly and then rapidly after HomeLinkaccepts the radio
frequency signal.
•Proceed with step4 in the “Programming” section.

conditions. If the compass still appears to be inaccurate, a manual
calibration may be necessary. Refer toCompass zone/calibration
adjustment.
Most geographic areas (zones) have a magnetic north compass point that
varies slightly from the northerly direction on maps. This variation is four
degrees between adjacent zones and will become noticeable as the
vehicle crosses multiple zones. A correct zone setting will eliminate this
error. Refer toCompass zone/calibration adjustment.
Compass zone/calibration adjustment
Perform this adjustment in an open area free from steel structures and
high voltage lines.
For optimum calibration, turn off all electrical accessories (heater/air
conditioning, wipers, etc.) and make sure all vehicle doors are shut.
1. Turn ignition to the ON position.
2. Start the engine.
3. Determine your magnetic zone by
referring to the zone map.
4. From Info menu, select the
Compass/Odometer function. (Do
not select Trip, DTE, or AFE. The
topof the message center must be
blank).
5. Press and hold the RESET and
SETUP control until the message
center display changes to show the
current zone setting.
6. Release the RESET AND SETUP
control, then slowly press RESET
down again.
7. Press the SETUP control
repeatedly until the correct zone
setting for your geographic location is displayed on the message center.
To exit the zone setting mode press and release the RESET control.
