Interior equipment and trunk Preparations for first-time programming Before programming the garage opener for the first time, you must delete any factory codes. Press and hold the two outer buttons until the indicator light begins to flash-after 20 seconds. Release both buttons. Do not hold for longer that 30 seconds. The garage opener is now in the train (or learning) mode and can be programmed at any time beginning with "Programming" - step 2. Programming The garage opener can record and store the frequencies of three different remote controls. The battery in the remote control should be fairly new for programming to work well. Do not repeat "Programming" - step two to train additional devices to a second or third button. Begin with "Programming" step three. 1 Turn the ignition ON. 2 Press and hold the two outer buttons (buttons one and three) - releasing only when the indicator light begins to flash (after 20 seconds). Do not hold the buttons for longer than 30 seconds and do not repeat step two to program a second and/or third hand-held transmitter to the remaining two buttons. 3 Position the end of your hand-held transmitter 1-3 inches (5-14 cm) away from the button you wish to program while keeping the indicator light in view. The transmitter should face the mirror from below or left side of the mirror. 4 Simultaneously press and hold both the chosen and hand-held transmitter buttons. Do not release the buttons until step 5 has been completed. Note: Some gate operators and garage door openers may require you to replace this Programming Step 4 with procedures noted in the "Gate Operator / Canadian Programming" section. 5 After the indicator light changes from a slow to a rapidly blinking light, release both the mirror and hand-held transmitter buttons. 6 Press and hold the just-trained button and observe the indicator light. If the indicator light stays on constantly, programming is complete and your device should activate when the button is pressed and released. Note: To program the remaining two buttons, begin with "Programming" - step three. Do not repeat step two. If the indicator light blinks rapidly for two seconds and then turns to a constant light continue with "Programming" steps 7-9 to complete the programming of a rolling code equipped device (most commonly a garage door opener). 7 At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in the garage, locate the "learn" or "smart" button. This can usually be found where the hanging 119 antenna wire is attached to the motor-head unit. 8 Firmly press and release the "learn" or "smart" button. (The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer.) Note: There are 30 seconds in which to initiate step nine. 9 Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two seconds and release the programmed button. Repeat the "press/hold/release" sequence a second time, and, depending on the brand of the garage door opener (or other rolling code equipped device), repeat this sequence a third time to complete the programming process. The garage opener should now activate your rolling code equipped device. Note: To program the remaining two buttons, begin with "Programming" - step three. Do not repeat step two.
