WARNING
. When programming the
HomeLink®Wireless Control Sys-
tem, you may be operating a
garage door opener or other
device. Make sure that people
and objects are out of the way
of the garage door or other
device to prevent potential harm
or damage.
. Do not use the HomeLink
®Wire-
less Control System with a gar- age door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse feature
as required by applicable safety
standards. A garage door opener
which cannot detect an object,
signaling the door to stop and
reverse, does not meet these
safety standards. Using a garage
door opener without these fea-
tures increases risk of serious
injury or death. For more infor-
mation, consult the HomeLink
®website at www.homelink.com or
call 1-800-355-3515.
CAUTION
When programming the HomeLink®Wireless Control System to operate
a garage door opener or an entrance
gate, unplug the device
’s motor
from the outlet during programming
to prevent motor burnout.
NOTE
. After programming your HomeLink®Wireless Control System for the de-
sired devices, retain the hand-held
transmitters for further programming
or device testing in the event of a
problem. .
It is recommended that you insert a
new battery in the hand-held transmit-
ter of a device to ensure correct
programming.
! Garage door opener program-
ming in the U.S.A.
NOTE
When programming the HomeLink®Wireless Control System for a garage
door opener, it is suggested that you
park the vehicle outside the garage.
1. Unplug the motor of the garage door
opener from the outlet.
NOTE
If any of the HomeLink®buttons are
already programmed for other devices,
skip step 2 because it clears the
memory of all three buttons.
