NOTE: If you see a screen called “Train the
receiver” while programming the device,
remember that this is a time-sensitive
step. After pressing the Learn/Program/
Smart button on the device's remote
control, you have only approximately 30
seconds to return to your vehicle and
press
Continue, and then press the
trained HomeLink device name twice.
Consider having an assistant to ensure
you can complete this step within 30
seconds.
8. Once your device is programmed, touch
Save to complete the programming.
9.
Ensure HomeLink works as expected. In
some cases, you may need to repeat the
programming process multiple times
before succeeding.
Once programmed, you can operate the
device by touching its corresponding
HomeLink icon on the touchscreen. HomeLink
remembers the location of your programmed
devices. When you approach a known
location, the HomeLink control on the
touchscreen automatically appears. When
you drive away, it disappears.
NOTE: For additional assistance or
compatibility questions, contact HomeLink
(
www.homelink.com or call 1-800-355-3515).
Auto Opening and Closing
To operate a HomeLink device without using
the touchscreen, you can automate the device
to open as you approach, and close as you
drive away:
1. Touch the HomeLink icon at the top of
the
Controls screen, then choose the
device you want to automate.
2.
Select the Auto-open when arriving
checkbox if you want the device to open
as you approach.
3. Touch the arrows to specify the distance
you want Model X to be from the device
before it opens.
4. Select the Auto-close when leaving
checkbox if you want the device to close
as you drive away.
As you approach (or drive away from) a
device that is set to operate automatically,
the HomeLink status icon displays a count-
down message to let you know when the
device automatically opens or closes. In
situations where you don't want the device to
automatically open or close, touch Skip Auto-
Open or Skip Auto-Close at any time during
the count-down message.
NOTE: Do not rely on HomeLink to ensure the
device fully closes.
Resetting the Location of the
HomeLink Device
If you experience situations in which you
sometimes drive up to your HomeLink device
and it doesn't open, or the touchscreen does
not display a
notification as you approach a
programmed device, you may need to reset
the device's location. To do so, park as close
as possible to the HomeLink device (garage
door, gate, etc.) and display the HomeLink
settings page by touching the HomeLink icon
at the top of the
Controls screen. Touch the
name of the device you want to reset, then
touch
Reset Location.
Deleting a Device
To delete a HomeLink device, touch the
HomeLink icon at the top of the Controls
screen. Touch the name of the device you
want to delete, then touch
Delete.
NOTE: You can also perform a factory reset to
erase your HomeLink settings, along with all
other personal data (saved addresses, music
favorites, imported contacts, etc.). See
Service on page 155.
NOTE: For security reasons, delete your
HomeLink devices if you sell your Model X.
Troubleshooting HomeLink
