Homelink
Universal remote
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-
mitter before you can use the system
~ page 85, Programming the HomeLink
transmitter.
In order to program the Homelink 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 operating instructions for the opener,
as the location and color of this button may
vary by manufacturer .
You can still use the origina l remote control
for 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 manufactured 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-
Homelink 85
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 absolutely
certain that no persons or objects are lo-
cated in the range of motion of any
equipment being operated.
