Universal Transceiver provides a
convenient way to consolidate the functions of
up to three individual hand-held transmitters into
one built-in device.
HomeLink
Universal Transceiver:
IWill operate most Radio Frequency (RF)
devices such as garage doors, gates, home
and office lighting, entry door locks and se-
curity systems.
IIs powered by your vehicle's battery. No
separate batteries are required. If the vehi-
cle's battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLink
will retain all program-
ming.
Once the HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver
is programmed, retain the original trans-
mitter for future programming procedures
(for example, new vehicle purchases).
Upon sale of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink
Universal Transceiver buttons
should be erased for security purposes.
For additional information, refer to ªPro-
gramming HomeLink

WARNING
IDo not use the HomeLink
Universal
Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and
reverse features as required by fed-
eral safety standards. (These stan-
dards became effective for opener
models manufactured after April 1,
1982). A garage door opener which
cannot detect an object in the path of
a closing garage door and then auto-
matically stop and reverse, does not
meet current federal safety stan-
dards. Using a garage door opener
without these features increases the
risk of serious injury or death.
IDuring programming, your garage
door or gate may open or close.
Make sure that people and objects
are clear of the garage door or gate
that you are programming.
IYour vehicle's engine should be
turned off while programming the
HomeLink
Universal Transceiver.
PROGRAMMING HomeLinkTo program your HomeLink Transceiver to oper-
ate a garage door, gate, or entry door opener,
home or office lighting, you need to be at the
same location as the device. Note: Garage door
openers (manufactured after 1996) have ªrolling
code protectionº. To program a garage door
opener equipped with ªrolling code protectionº;
you will need to use a ladder to get up to the
garage door opener motor to be able to access
the ªsmart or learnº program button.
1. To begin, press and hold the 2 outer
HomeLink
buttons (to clear the memory)
until the indicator light blinks slowly (after 20
seconds). Release both buttons.
2. Position the end of the hand-held transmitter
1-3 inches away from the HomeLink
sur-
face.

3. Using both hands, simultaneously press and
hold both the HomeLink
button you want to
program and the hand-held transmitter but-
ton.
DO NOT release the buttons until step 4 has
been completed.
4. Hold down both buttons until the indicator
light on the HomeLinkflashes, changing
from a ªslow blinkº to a ªrapidly flashing
blinkº. This could take up to 90 seconds.
When the indicator light flashes rapidly, both
buttons may be released. The rapidly flashing
light indicates successful programming. To
activate the garage door or other pro-
grammed device, press and hold the pro-grammed HomeLink
button - releasing
when the device begins to activate.
5. If the indicator light on the HomeLink
blinks
rapidly for two seconds and then turns solid,
HomeLink
has picked up a ªrolling codeº
garage door opener signal. You will need to
proceed with the next steps to train the
HomeLinkto complete the programming
which may require a ladder and another
person for convenience.
6. Press and release the ªsmartº or ªlearnº
program button located on the garage door
opener's motor to activate the ªtraining
modeº. This button is usually located near the
antenna wire that hangs down from the mo-
tor. If the wire originates from under a light
lens, you will need to remove the lens to
access the program button.
NOTE:
Once you have pressed and released the
program button on the garage door open-
er's motor and the ªtraining lightº is lit, you
have 30 seconds in which to perform step
7. Use the help of a second person for
convenience to assist when performing
this step.
7. Quickly within 30 seconds of pressing and
releasing the garage door opener programbutton, firmly press and release the
HomeLink
button you've just programmed.
Press and release the HomeLink
button up
to three times to complete the training.
8. Your HomeLink
button should now be pro-
grammed. (To program the remaining
HomeLink
buttons for additional door or
gate openers, follow steps 2-8 only.
NOTE:
Do not repeat step one unless you want to
ªclearº all previously programmed
HomeLinkbuttons).
If you have any questions or are having difficulty
programming your HomeLink
buttons, please
refer to the HomeLink
web site at: ww-
w.homelink.com or call 1-800-662-6200.

hand-held transmitter buttons without inter-
ruption.
Iposition the hand-held transmitter 2 to 5
inches (50 to 127 mm) away from the
HomeLink
surface. Hold the transmitter in
that position for up to 15 seconds. If
HomeLinkis not programmed within that
time, try holding the transmitter in another
position - keeping the indicator light in view at
all times.
If you continue to have programming difficulties,
please contact the NISSAN Consumer Affairs
Department. The phone numbers are located in
the Foreword of this Owner's Manual.
