located on the interior rear view mirror,
keeping the indicator lamp1 in view.
Step 4:

Using both hands, simultaneously
press the hand-held transmitter
button5 and the desired integrated
signal transmitter button (2, 3
or4). Do not release the buttons until

first slowly and then rapidly.Step 5:

When the indicator lamp1 flashes
rapidly, release both buttons.
Step 6:

Press and hold the just-trained
integrated signal transmitter button
and observe the indicator lamp1.

for about two seconds and then turns
to a constant light, continue with
programming steps 8 through 12 as

Gate operator/Canadian programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)
after several seconds of transmission
which may not be long enough for the
integrated signal transmitter to pick up the
signal during programming. Similar to this
Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators
are designed to “time-out” in the same
manner.
If you live in Canada or if you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator
(regardless of where you live) by using the
programming procedures, replace step 4
with the following:Step 4:

Continue to press and hold the
integrated signal transmitter button
(2, 3 or4) while you press and
re-press (“cycle”) your hand-held
remote control transmitter6 every
two seconds until the frequency signal
has been learned. Upon successful
training, the indicator lamp1 will
flash slowly and then rapidly after
several seconds.

Proceed with programming step 5 and
step 6 to complete. Operation of integrated remote control

Switch on ignition.

Select and press the appropriate
integrated signal transmitter button
(2, 3 or4) to activate the remote
controlled device.
The integrated remote control trans-
mitter continues to send the signal as
long as the button is pressed – up to
20 seconds.

signal transmitter button
To program a device using a signal trans-
mitter button previously trained, follow
these steps:

Press and hold the desired signal
transmitter button (2, 3 or4).
Do not release the button.

The indicator lamp will begin to flash
after 20 seconds. Without releasing
the integrated signal transmitter
button, proceed with programming
starting with step 3.
iIf you sell your vehicle, erase the codes
of all three channels.
