HOMELINKTUNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (IF EQUIPPED)
The HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver, located on the driver's visor,
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 gates,
security systems, entry door locks, and home or office lighting.
When programming your HomeLinktUniversal 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 HomeLinktUniversal 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 stop and reverse, does not meet current
U.S. federal safety standards. For more information on this matter, call
toll-free: 1±800±355±3515 or on the Internet atHomeLink.jci.com.
Programming
Do not program the HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver with the
vehicle parked in the garage.
1. Prepare for programming the
HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver by
erasing the three factory default
codes by holding down the two
outside buttons until the red light
begins to flash after 20 seconds.
Release both buttons.
2. Hold the end of your hand-held
transmitter 5±14 cm (2±5 inches)
away from the HomeLinktUniversal
Transceiver surface (located on your visor) while keeping the red light in
view.

3. Using both hands simultaneously
press and hold the hand-held
transmitter button and the desired
HomeLinktbutton. Do not release
the buttons until step 4 has been
completed.
Some entry gates and garage door
openers may require you to replace
step 3 with the procedure in the ªCanadian Programingº section.
4. The red light will flash slowly and then rapidly. Release both buttons
when the red light flashes rapidly.
5. Follow steps 2 through 4 to program the remaining two buttons.
If you do not successfully program the HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver
after repeated attempts, refer toRolling code programingwhich
follows, or call toll-free customer assistance: 1±800±355±3515 or on the
Internet atHomeLink.jci.com.
Canadian Programming
During programming, your hand-held transmitter may automatically stop
transmitting after two seconds which may not be long enough to
program the HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver.
To program your hand-held
transmitters:
²Continue to hold the button on
the HomeLinktUniversal
Transceiver.
²Press and re-press the hand-held
transmitter button every two

Operating the HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
Once programmed, the HomeLinkt
Universal Transceiver can be used in
place of hand-held transmitters. To
operate, simply press and release
the appropriate HomeLinktbutton
(the red light will illuminate,
indicating the signal is being
transmitted).
Rolling code programming
Rolling code garage door openers (or other rolling code devices) which
are ªcode protectedº and manufactured after 1996, may be determined
by the following:
²Reference the device owner's manual for verification
²The hand-held transmitter appears to program the HomeLinkt
Universal Transceiver but does not activate the device.
²Press and hold the trained HomeLinktbutton. The device has the
rolling code feature if the indicator light flashes rapidly and then turns
solid after two seconds.
After completing the ªProgrammingº functions, follow these steps to
train a garage door opener with the rolling code feature:
1. Locate thetraining buttonon the garage door motor head unit.
Refer to the garage door opener manual or call 1±800±355±3515 or on
the Internet atHomeLink.jci.com.if there is difficulty locating the
training button.
2. Press the training button on the garage door motor head unit (which
will activate theªtrainingº light).

Universal Transceiver has now been trained to the receiver. The
remaining two buttons may now be programmed if this has not
previously been done.

programmed buttons:
1. Hold down the two outside
buttons until the red light begins to
flash after 20 seconds.
2. Release both buttons.

compliance certification label). Consult your dealer for specific weight
information.
²The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Canadian Radio
Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulate the use of mobile
communications systems - such as two-way radios, telephones and
theft alarms - that are equipped with radio transmitters. Any such

cause the engine to stumble or stall or cause the transmission to be
damaged or operate improperly. In addition, such systems may be
damaged or their performance may be affected by operating your
vehicle. (Citizens band [CB] transceivers, garage door openers and
other transmitters with outputs of five watts or less will not ordinarily
affect your vehicle's operation.)
