Programming HomeLink
Do not use the HomeLink Transmitter with any garage
door opener that does not have the “stop and reverse”
feature. This includes any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982.
Keep the original transmitter for use in other vehicles as
well as for future HomeLink programming. It is also
recommended that upon the sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomeLink buttons should be erased for
security purposes. Refer to “Programming HomeLink”
(Step 1 only) or, for assistance, contact HomeLink on
the internet at: www.homelink.com or by calling
1
-800-355-3515.
Be sure that people and objects are clear of the
garage door or gate operator you are programming.
When programming a garage door, it is advised to
park outside of the garage.
It is recommended that a new battery be installed in
your hand
-held transmitter for quicker and more
accurate transmission of the radio frequency.
Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off while
programming the transmitter. Follow these steps to
program up to three channels:
1. Press and hold down the two outside buttons,
releasing only when the indicator light begins to
flash (after 20 seconds). Do not hold down the
buttons for longer than 30 seconds and do not
repeat this step to program a second and/or third
transmitter to the remaining two HomeLink buttons.
2. Position the end of your hand held transmitter about
1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink
buttons while keeping the indicator light in view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold both the desired
button on HomeLink and the hand
-held transmitter
button. Do not release the buttons until Step 4 has
been completed.
Some entry gates and garage door openers may
require you to substitute Step 3 with the procedures
noted in “Gate Operator and Canadian
Programming” found later in this section.
