• If you have any problems, or require assistance, please call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 or, on the Internet at Home-
Link.com for information or assistance.
WARNING!
• Your motorized door or gate will open and close while you are programming the universal transceiver. Do not
program the transceiver if people, pets or other objects
are in the path of the door or gate. Only use this trans -
ceiver with a garage door opener that has a “stop and
reverse” feature as required by Federal safety stan -
dards. This includes most garage door opener models
manufactured after 1982. Do not use a garage door
opener without these safety features.
• Vehicle exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a dangerous gas. Do not run your vehicle in the garage
while programming the transceiver. Exhaust gas can

Programming A Rolling Code
For programming garage door openers that were manufac-
tured after 1995. These garage door openers can be identified
by the “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button located where the
hanging antenna is attached to the garage door opener.
NOTE:
It is NOT the button that is normally used to open and close
the door. The name and color of the button may vary by
manufacturer.
Training The Garage Door Opener 1. Place the ignition in the ON/RUN position.
2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm)
away from the HomeLink button you wish to program
while keeping the HomeLink indicator light in view.
3. Push and hold the HomeLink button you want to program while you push and hold the hand-held trans-
mitter button.
4. Continue to hold both buttons and observe the indicator light. The HomeLink indicator will flash slowly and then
rapidly after HomeLink has received the frequency signal
from the hand-held transmitter. Release both buttons
after the indicator light changes from slow to rapid.
5. At the garage door opener motor (in the garage), locate the “LEARN” or “TRAINING” button. This can usually
be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to
the garage door opener/device motor. Firmly push and
release the “LEARN” or “TRAINING” button. On some
garage door openers/devices there may be a light that
blinks when the garage door opener/device is in the
LEARN/TRAIN mode.

For programming transmitters in Canada/United States that
require the transmitter signals to “time-out” after several
seconds of transmission.
Canadian radio frequency laws require transmitter signals to
time-out (or quit) after several seconds of transmission –
which may not be long enough for HomeLink 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.
It may be helpful to unplug the device during the cycling
process to prevent possible overheating of the garage door or
gate motor.
1. Cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink button you wish to program
while keeping the HomeLink indicator light in view.
3. Continue to press and hold the HomeLink button, while you press and release (“cycle”) your hand-held trans-
mitter every two seconds until HomeLink has success-
fully accepted the frequency signal. The indicator light
will flash slowly and then rapidly when fully trained.
