Dodge 2010 Dakota - Manual (Page 31)

• Park your vehicle outside of the garage and turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN
position.
• Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 in (3 to 8 cm) from the HomeLink ® buttons
while keeping the indicator light in view.
• Simultaneously, press and hold both the chosen HomeLink ® button and the
hand-held transmitter button until the HomeLink ® indicator flash rate changes from a
slow to a rapidly blinking light, then release both the HomeLink ® and the hand-held
transmitter buttons. This may take up to 30 seconds, or longer in rare cases.
• Press and hold the just-programmed HomeLink ® button; if the indicator light stays on
constantly, programming is complete and the garage door should open.
WARNING!
• Your motorized door or gate will open and close while you are programming the
universal transceiver. Do not program the transceiver if people or pets are in the
path of the door or gate. Only use this transceiver with a garage door opener that
has a “stop and reverse” feature as required by Federal safety standards. This
includes most garage door opener models manufactured after 1982. Do not use a
garage door opener without these safety features. Call toll-free 1–800–355–3515 or,
on the Internet, at www.HomeLink.com for safety information or assistance.
• Do not run your vehicle in a closed garage or confined area while programming the
transceiver. Exhaust gas from your vehicle contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is
odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide is poisonous and can cause serious
injury or death when inhaled.
NOTE: If you are having difficulty programming your HomeLink ® and your garage door
opener was manufactured after 1995, you may have a rolling code. Follow the steps
below for Programming A Rolling Code System.
Programming A Rolling Code System
• At the garage door opener motor (in the garage), locate the “learn” or “programming”
button. This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the
garage door opener motor (it is NOT the button normally used to open and close the
door).
• Firmly press and release the “learn” or “programming” button. The name and color of
the button may vary by manufacturer. Within 30 seconds, return to the vehicle and
press the programmed HomeLink
® button twice (holding the button for two seconds
each time). If the device is plugged in and activates, programming is complete.
• If the device does not activate, press the button a third time (for two seconds) to
complete the programming.
Using HomeLink ®
• To operate, simply press and release the programmed HomeLink ® button and the
programmed device will operate.
