The Integrated HomeLink Transmitter may not work with older garage door openers that do not meet current Federal Consumer Safety Standards. 1. Test the Integrated HomeLink Transmitter by pressing any button. The red indicator light should come on. If you have previously programmed a button proceed to step 3. 2. Clear all channels on the Integrated HomeLink Transmitter by holding down both outside buttons (#1 & #3) until the red light begins to flash rapidly (approximately 20 seconds). Then release both buttons. 3. Select which of the three Integrated HomeLink Transmitter buttons you want to program. 4. Hold your hand-held transmitter against the bottom surface of the Integrated HomeLink Transmitter so that you can still see the red indicator light. 5. Press the desired button until the red indicator light flashes slowly. Do not release the button. Continue holding and press the hand-held transmitter button through step 6. 6. Hold down both buttons until the red indicator light on the Integrated HomeLink Transmitter flashes rapidly (This may take 1-90 seconds). Then release both buttons. The rapid flashing means that the transmitter has been successfully programmed to match your hand-held transmitter. You can now use the Integrated HomeLink Transmitter instead of your hand-held transmitter. Note to Canadian users: Prior to 1992, D.O.C. regulations required many hand-held transmitters to stop transmitting after 1 or 2 seconds, even though you continue to hold down the button. If you think you have one of these hand-held transmitters, you should press and re-press the transmitter button every 2 seconds without ever releasing the integrated HomeLink Transmitter button. The indicator light on the Integrated HomeLink Transmitter should blink rapidly indicating a successful programming procedure. If it returns to the slow blink of program mode, continue to periodically reactivate your hand-held transmitter until a successful programming procedure is indicated by the rapidly flashing indicator light. SIC0696 PROGRAMMING THE HomeLink TRANSMITTER During the programming procedure your garage door or security gate will open and close (if the transmitter is within range). Make sure that people or objects are clear of the garage door, gate, etc. that you are programming. Your vehicle's engine should be turned off while programming your transmitter. 2-28 Instruments and controls
