control
General information
The HomeLink universal remote control can
be programmed with hand-held transmitters
from existing equipment.
You must first program the Homelink ® trans-

~
page 81, Programming the HomeLink®
transmitter .
In order to program the Home Link® transmit-
ter for devices utilizing rolling code, a second
person on a ladder who can safely reach the
garage door opener motor is recommended.
It is also necessary to locate the "learn" but-
ton on your garage door opener motor . Refer
to the ope rating inst ructions for the opener ,
as the location and color of t his but ton may
vary by manufacturer .
You can still use the origina l remote control
fo r the device at any time.
A WARNING
-
- Never use the Homelink ® transmitter
with any garage door opener that does
have not the safety stop and reverse fea-
ture as requ ired by federal safety stand-
ards. This includes any garage door open-
er model man ufactured before April 1,
1982.
- A garage door opener which cannot de-
tect an object, signaling the door to stop
and reverse does not meet current feder -
al safety standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features increases
risk of serious injury or death.
- For safety reasons never release the
parking brake or start the engine while
anyone is standing in front of the vehicle.
- A garage door or an estate gate may
sometimes be set in motion when the
Homelink ® remote control is being pro-
grammed. If the device is repeatedly ac-
Homelin k® 81
tivated, this can overstrain motor and
damage its electrical components - an
overheated motor is a fire hazard!
- To avoid possible injuries or property
damage, please always make abso lutely
certain that no persons or objects are lo-
cated in the range of motion of any
equipment being operated.
