garage door opener NISSAN ALTIMA 2006 L31 / 3.G Owners Manual

The light illuminates when the trunk lid is opened.
When the trunk lid is closed, the light goes off.
The light will go off after about 30 minutes if the
trunk lid is left open, unless the ignition key is in
the ACC or ON position.
For bulb replacement procedures, refer to “Exte-
rior and interior lights” in the “Maintenance and
do-it-yourself” section of this manual.The HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver provides a
convenient way to consolidate the functions of up
to three individual hand-held transmitters into
one built-in device.
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver:
cWill operate most Radio Frequency (RF)
devices such as garage doors, gates, home
and office lighting, entry door locks and se-
curity systems.
cIs powered by your vehicle’s battery. No
separate batteries are required. If the vehi-
cle’s battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLinkTwill retain all program-
ming.
Once the HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
is programmed, retain the original trans-
mitter for future programming procedures
(Example: new vehicle purchases) . Upon
sale of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver buttons
should be erased for security purposes. For
additional information refer to “Program-
ming HomeLinkT” later in this section.WARNING
cDo not use the HomeLinkTUniversal
Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and re-
verse features as required by federal
safety standards. (These standards be-
came effective for opener models
manufactured after April 1, 1982) . A ga-
rage door opener which cannot detect
an object in the path of a closing garage
door and then automatically stop and
reverse, does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features in-
creases the risk of serious injury or
death.
cDuring the programming procedure
your garage door or security gate will
open and close (if the transmitter is
within range) . Make sure that people or
objects are clear of the garage door,
gate, etc. that you are programming.
cYour vehicle’s engine should be turned
off while programming the HomeLinkT
Universal Transceiver.

PROGRAMMING HOMELINKT
1. With the ignition key in the OFF position,
press and hold the two outside buttons, and
release when the indicator light begins to
flash (after 20 seconds) . This procedure
erases the factory set default codes and
does not have to be followed when program-
ming additional hand-held transmitters.
2. Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter
(from the device you wish to train) approxi-
mately1-3inches (26 - 76 mm) away from
the surface of HomeLinkTkeeping the indi-
cator light in view.3. Using both hands, simultaneously push the
hand-held transmitter button and the de-
sired HomeLinkTbutton. Do not release the
buttons until step 4 has been completed.
NOTE:
Some garage door openers may require the
procedures noted under “Canadian Pro-
gramming.”
4. The HomeLinkTindicator will flash, first
slowly and then rapidly. When the indicator
light flashes rapidly, both buttons may be
released. The rapid flashing light indicates
the HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver has
been successfully programmed.
To program the remaining two buttons, follow
steps 2 through 4.
If , after repeated attempts, you do not success-
fully program the HomeLinkTUniversal Trans-
ceiver to learn the signal of the hand-held trans-
mitter, refer to “Rolling Code Programming” later
in this section.
If you have any questions or are having difficulty
programming your HomeLinkTbuttons, refer to
the HomeLinkTweb site at: www.homelink.com
or call 1-800-355-3515.
PROGRAMMING HOMELINKTFOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS
Prior to 1992, D.O.C. regulations required hand-
held transmitters to stop transmitting after 2 sec-
onds. To program your hand-held transmitter to
HomeLinkT, continue to press and hold the
HomeLinkTbutton (note steps2-4under “Pro-
gramming HomeLinkT”) while you press and re-
press (“cycle”) your hand-held transmitters every
2 seconds until the indicator light flashes rapidly
(indicating successful programming) .
NOTE:
When programming a garage door opener,
etc., it is advised to unplug the device dur-
ing the “cycling” process to prevent pos-
sible damage to the garage door opener
components.
OPERATING THE HOMELINKT
UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER
The HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver (once pro-
grammed) may now be used to activate the ga-
rage door, etc. To operate, simply press the ap-
propriate programmed HomeLinkTUniversal
Transceiver button. The red indicator light will
illuminate while the signal is being transmitted.

PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-
DIAGNOSIS
If the HomeLinkTdoes not quickly learn the hand-
held transmitter information:
creplace the hand-held transmitter batteries
with new batteries.
cposition the hand-held transmitter with its
battery area facing away from the
HomeLinkTsurface.
cpress and hold both the HomeLinkTand
hand-held transmitter buttons without inter-
ruption.
cposition the hand-held transmitter1-3
inches (26 - 76 mm) away from the
HomeLinkTsurface. Hold the transmitter in
that position for up to 15 seconds. If
HomeLinkTis 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 manual.
CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATION
Individual buttons cannot be cleared. However,
to clear all programming, press and hold the two
outside buttons and release when the indicator
light begins to flash (approximately 20 seconds) .
ROLLING CODE PROGRAMMING
Rolling code garage door openers (or other roll-
ing code devices) which are “code protected”
and manufactured after 1996, may be deter-
mined by the following:
cReference the garage door opener Owner’s
Manual for verification.
cThe hand-held transmitter appears to pro-
gram the HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
but does not activate the garage door.
cPress and hold the trained HomeLinkTbut-
ton. If the garage door opener has the rolling
code feature, the HomeLinkTindicator light
will flash rapidly, then remains on after 2
seconds.
To program the HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
to a garage door opener with the rolling code
feature, follow these instructions after completing
the “Programming HomeLink” (the aid of a sec-
ond person may make the following procedures
quicker and easier) .1. Locate the training button on the garage
door opener motor unit. Exact location and
color of the button may vary by garage door
opener brand. If there is difficulty locating
the training button, reference the garage
door opener Owner’s Manual.
2. Press the training button on the garage door
opener motor unit (which may activate a
training light) .
NOTE:
Following step 2, there are 30 seconds in
which to initiate step 3.
3. Firmly press and release the programmed
HomeLinkTbutton a second time to com-
plete the training process. (Some garage
door openers may require you to do this
procedure a third time to complete the train-
ing.)
The garage door opener should now recognize
the HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver and acti-
vate when the HomeLinkTbutton is pressed. The
remaining two buttons may now be programmed
(if not yet programmed, follow steps 2 through 4
in the “Programming HomeLinkT” procedures
earlier in this section) .
