WARNING
•
If you use HomeLink ®
to open a garage
door or gate, be sure no one is near the gate or door while it is in motion.
• When programming a garage dooropener, it is advised to park outside of thegarage.
• Do not use HomeLink ®
with any garage
door opener that lacks safety stop andreverse features as required by U.S. fed-eral safety standards (this includes anygarage door opener model manufacturedbefore April 1, 1982). A garage door thatcannot detect an object - signaling thedoor to stop and reverse - does not meetcurrent U.S. federal safety standards. Formore information, contact HomeLink at:www.homelink.com.
Retain the original transmitter of the RF device you are programming for use in other vehicles aswell as for future HomeLink programming. It isalso suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle,the programmed HomeLink buttons be erasedfor security purposes. See the article "Program-ming HomeLink."

NOTE
Some vehicles may require the ignition to be switched on or be in the “accessories” posi-tion for programming and/or operation ofHomeLink. It is also recommended that a newbattery be placed in the hand-held transmitterof the device being programmed to Home-Link for quicker training and accurate trans-mission of the radio-frequency signal. TheHomeLink buttons must be reset first. Whenthis has been completed, Homelink is inlearning mode so that you can perform pro-gramming.
To program HomeLink®
1. Press the HomeLink ®
button to be pro-
grammed. The HomeLink ®
indicator will
begin flashing yellow once a second. You do not need to continue holding the button.
2. Point the hand-held transmitter toward the HomeLink ®
button to be programmed and
hold it approx. 6–12 inches (15–30 cm) away from the HomeLink ®
button. Do not
obstruct the HomeLink ®
indicator light.

Gate Operator/Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmit- ter signals to “time-out” (or quit) after severalseconds of transmission – which may not be longenough for HomeLink to pick up the signal dur-ing programming. Similar to this Canadian law,some U.S. gate operators are designed to “time-out” in the same manner. If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties programming a gate operator or garage dooropener by using the “Programming” procedures, replace “Programming HomeLink” step 3 with the following:
• Continue to press and hold the HomeLink button while you
press and release - every
two seconds (“cycle”) your hand-held trans-
mitter until the HomeLink indicator light changes from a slow to a rapidly blinkinglight. Now you may release both the Home-Link and hand-held transmitter buttons.
Proceed with “Programming” step 4 to complete.
Using HomeLink ®When programming has been completed, HomeLink
®
can be used instead of the original
remote controls. To operate, press and hold the programmed HomeLink ®
button until the trained device begins
to operate 3
(this may take several seconds). The indicator light will glow steadily or flash when the button has been pressed. Activation will nowoccur for the trained device (i.e., garage dooropener, gate operator, security system, entry doorlock, home/office lighting, etc.).
NOTE
If the ignition is switched off, HomeLink will function for 30 minutes after the driver's doorhas been opened.
For convenience, the hand-held transmitter of the device may also be used at any time. In the event that there are still programming diffi- culties or questions, contact HomeLink at:www.HomeLink.com, www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by phoning the hotline at 1–800–355–3515.
Resetting HomeLink
®
buttonsUse the following procedure to reset (erase pro- gramming) from the three HomeLink ®
buttons
(individual buttons cannot be reset but can be “reprogrammed” as outlined in the following sec-tion): 1. Press and hold HomeLink ®
buttons 1 and 3
for approx. 10 seconds until the indicator light begins to flash green. 2. Release both buttons.
>HomeLink ®
is now in the training (or
learning) mode and can be programmedat any time beginning with “To program HomeLink ®
" above.
Reprogramming a single HomeLink ®
button
To reprogram an individual HomeLink ®
button:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink ®
but-
ton. DO NOT release the button.
2. The yellow indicator light will begin to flash after 20 seconds. Without releasing the HomeLink button, proceed with “To program HomeLink ®
" step 1 above.
For questions or comments, contact HomeLink at: www.HomeLink.com, www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by phoning the hotline at 1–800–355–3515.
