ELECTRONICS • 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. NOTE: • 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. • 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. • Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details. If you have any problems programming HomeLink®, or require assistance, please call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 or, on the Internet, at www.HomeLink.com. 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. • 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 when inhaled and can cause you and others to be severely injured or killed. 40
