PROGRAMMING HOMELINKா FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS
Prior to 1992, D.O.C. regulations required hand-
held transmitters to stop transmitting after 2 sec-
onds. To program your hand-held transmitter to
HomeLinkா, continue to press and hold the
HomeLinkா button (note steps2-4under “Pro-
gramming HomeLinkா”) while you press and re-
press (“cycle”) your hand-held transmitters every
2 seconds until the indicator light flashes rapidly
(indicating successful programming).
NOTE:
When programming a garage door opener,
etc., it is advised to unplug the device dur-
ing the “cycling” process to prevent pos-
sible damage to the garage door opener
components.
OPERATING THE HOMELINKா
UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER
The HomeLinkா Universal Transceiver (once pro-
grammed) may now be used to activate the ga-
rage door, etc. To operate, simply press the ap-
propriate programmed HomeLinkா Universal
Transceiver button. The red indicator light will
illuminate while the signal is being transmitted.
PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-
DIAGNOSIS
If the HomeLinkா does notquickly learn the hand-
held transmitter information:
● replace the hand-held transmitter batteries
with new batteries.
● position the hand-held transmitter with its
battery area facing away from the
HomeLinkா surface.
● press and hold both the HomeLinkா and
hand-held transmitter buttons without inter-
ruption.
● position the hand-held transmitter1-3
inches (26 - 76 mm) away from the
HomeLinkா surface. Hold the transmitter in
that position for up to 15 seconds. If
HomeLinkா is not programmed within that
time, try holding the transmitter in another
position – keeping the indicator light in view
at all times.
If you continue to have programming difficulties,
please contact the NISSAN Consumer Affairs
Department. The phone numbers are located in
the Foreword of this manual.
CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATION
Individual buttons cannot be cleared. However,
to clear all programming, press and hold the two
outside buttons and release when the indicator
light begins to flash (approximately 20 seconds).
ROLLING CODE PROGRAMMING
Rolling code garage door openers (or other roll-
ing code devices) which are “code protected”
and manufactured after 1996, may be deter-
mined by the following:
● Reference the garage door opener Owner’s
Manual for verification.
● The hand-held transmitter appears to pro-
gram the HomeLinkா Universal Transceiver
but does not activate the garage door.
● Press and hold the trained HomeLinkா but-
ton. If the garage door opener has the rolling
code feature, the HomeLinkா indicator light
will flash rapidly, then remains on after 2
seconds.
To program the HomeLinkா Universal Transceiver
to a garage door opener with the rolling code
feature, follow theseinstructions after completing
the “Programming HomeLink” (the aid of a sec-
ond person may make the following procedures
quicker and easier).
