Programming
Do not program the HomeLink
௡ Universal Transceiver with the
vehicle parked in the garage.
Note: Your vehicle may require the ignition switch to be turned to the
ACC position for programming and/or operation of the HomeLink
௡. It is
also recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLink
௡ for quicker
training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
1. Press and hold the two outside

transmitter signals into HomeLink
௡.

hand-held transmitter 5–14 cm (1–3 inches) away from the HomeLink
௡

red light in view.

both the HomeLink

“Gate Operator and Canadian Programming” section for Canadian
residents.

௡ button and observe the red
light. If the light is a constant red, programming is complete and your
device should activate when the HomeLink
௡ button is pressed and
released. Note: To program the remaining two HomeLink
௡ buttons,
begin with step 2 in the “Programming” section — do not repeat step 1.
