Within 30 seconds of pressing and releasing the garage door opener program button, quickly and firmly press and release the HomeLink button you've just programmed. Press and release the HomeLink button up to 3 times to complete the training. 8. Your HomeLink button should now be programmed. (To program the remaining HomeLink buttons for additional door or gate openers, follow steps 2-4 only.) NOTE: Do not repeat step 1 unless you want to "clear" all previously programmed HomeLink buttons. If you have any questions or are having difficulty programming your HomeLink buttons, refer to the HomeLink web site at: www.homelink.com or call 1-800-355-3515. PROGRAMMING HOMELINK FOR CANADIAN CUSTOMERS Prior to 1992, D.O.C. regulations required handheld transmitters to stop transmitting after 2 seconds. To program your hand-held transmitter to HomeLink , continue to press and hold the HomeLink button (see steps 2 - 4 under "Programming HomeLink ") while you press and repress ("cycle") your hand-held transmitters every 2 seconds until the indicator light flashes rapidly (indicating successful programming). NOTE: When programming a garage door opener, etc., it is advised to unplug the device during the "cycling" process to prevent possible damage to the garage door opener components. PROGRAMMING TROUBLEDIAGNOSIS If the HomeLink does not quickly learn the handheld transmitter information: ● replace the hand-held transmitter batteries with new batteries. ● position the hand-held transmitter with its battery area facing away from the HomeLink surface. ● press and hold both the HomeLink and hand-held transmitter buttons without interruption. ● position the hand-held transmitter 1 3 inches (26 - 76 mm) away from the HomeLink surface. Hold the transmitter in that position for up to 15 seconds. If HomeLink is not programmed within that time, try holding the transmitter in another position - keeping the indicator light in view at all times. If you continue to have programming difficulties, please contact the NISSAN Consumer Affairs Department. The phone numbers are located in the Foreword of this manual. OPERATING THE HOMELINK UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER The HomeLink Universal Transceiver (once programmed) may now be used to activate the garage door, etc. To operate, simply press the appropriate programmed HomeLink Universal Transceiver button.
