Understanding the Vehicle
programming the transceiver. Exhaust
gas can cause serious injury or death.
Before You Start Programming
HomeLink
®
Be sure that your vehicle is parked
outside of the garage before you begin
programming.
For more efficient programming and
accurate transmission of the radio-
frequency signal it is recommended that
a new battery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device that is being
programmed to the HomeLink
®
system.
Before starting programming it is
necessary to erase the standard codes
memorized on the HomeLink
®
device
during the production phase. To erase
such codes:
• place the ignition device in the ON
position without starting the engine;
• press and hold the two outside
HomeLink
®
buttons (I and III) until the
warning light starts flashing (after
approximately 20 seconds);
• release the buttons.
NOTE:
• Erasing the standard codes should only
be performed when programming
HomeLink
®
for the first time. Do not
perform this operation to program
additional buttons.
• If you have any problems, or require

System with Devices Provided
with Rolling Codes
Programming the Hand-held
Transmitters Manufactured after 1995
These devices can be identified by the
"LEARN" or "TRAIN" setting button
located where the hanging antenna
is attached to the garage door/gate
opener. It is NOT the button that is
normally used to open and close the
door.
The name and color of the button may
vary by manufacturer.
• Place the ignition device to the ON
position without starting the engine.
• Place the garage door opener
transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 - 8 cm)
away from the Homelink
®
button you
wish to program.
• Push and hold the Homelink
®
button
you want to program while you push
and hold the garage door opener
transmitter button you are trying to
replicate.
The quick flashing light indicates that
the channel with the new frequency
has been acquired and programmed
correctly by the HomeLink
®
system.
NOTE:
The distance necessary between the
portable hand-held transmitter and the
HomeLink
®
in the vehicle depends on the
system you wish to program. Probably
it will be necessary to try several times.
Upon every attempt, keep the setting
position for at least 15 seconds before
trying again.
Synchronising the Rolling Codes
At the end of the previously-described
programming, if the HomeLink
®
has been
programmed for a rolling code system,
it will be necessary to synchronise it to
ensure its correct operation.
• Locate the "LEARN" or "TRAINING"
setting button of the opening motor.
Firmly press it and then release it. On
some garage door openers/devices
there may be a light that blinks when
the garage door opener/device is in the
LEARN/TRAIN mode.
NOTE:
You have 30 seconds to initiate the next
step after the setting button has been
pressed.
• Return to the vehicle and press the
programmed HomeLink
®
button for two
seconds and then release it.
• Repeat this operation a second time.
