Controls and features When programming your HomeLink Universal Transmitter, you will be operating the garage door or gate. Be sure that people and objects are out to the way to prevent potential harm or damage. Do not use the HomeLink Universal Transmitter with any garage door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by U.S. federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door which cannot detect an object, signaling the door to stop and reverse, does not meet current U.S. federal safety standards. For more information on this matter, call toll-free: 1-800-355-3515. Programming 1. Prepare for programming the HomeLink Universal Transmitter by erasing all three of the factory default channels by holding down the two outside controls until the red light begins to flash (20-30 seconds). Release both controls. 2. Hold the end of your hand-held transmitter against the HomeLink Universal Transmitter (located on your visor) while keeping the red light in view. 43
