NOTE
l For your security, the HomeLink Universal Transceiver is designed to not\
function if you lock your car from the
outside.
l Retain the original transmitter(s) for future programming procedures (\
for example, if you purchase a new
vehicle).
l For your own security, erase all programmed buttons on the HomeLink Univ\
ersal Transceiver when you sell your
vehicle.
l Metallic sun protection films should not be used on any windows in a veh\
icle equipped with HomeLink Universal
Transceiver. This could interfere with the transceivers function.
Operating the HomeLink Universal Transceiver
Once programmed, the HomeLink Universal Transceiver can be used in place\
of your handheld transmitters.
NOTE
The HomeLink universal transceiver will function for 30 minutes after th\
e driver's door has been opened without
switching on the vehicle's ignition.
Press the programmed HomeLink button to activate the garage door, drivew\
ay gate, security lightning, home security
system etc.
Your original hand-held transmitters may, of course, be used at any time\
.
WARNING
l If you use HomeLink to open a garage door or gate, be sure no one is nea\
r the gate or door while it is in motion.
l Do not use the HomeLink Universal Transceiver with any garage door opene\
r that lacks safety "stop" and
"reverse" features as required by federal safety standards. (This inclu\
des any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door opener that cannot "d\
etect" an object, signalling the door to
"stop" and "reverse" does not meet current federal safety standards. Usi\
ng a garage door opener without these
features increases the risk of serious injury or death. For more informa\
tion on this matter, call toll-free 1-800-355-
3515. (Internet:
www.HomeLink.com).
Programming the transceiver for the first time (U.S. residents)
1. For first time training, press and hold the two outer HomeLink button\
s, releasing only when the HomeLink
indicator light begins to flash after 20 seconds. (Do not perform this \
step when training the additional HomeLink
buttons.)
2. Position the hand-held transmitter 1-3 inches away from the HomeLink \
surface
