The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver

provides a convenient way to consolidate

the functions of up to three individual

hand-held transmitters into one built-in

device.
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver:
. Will operate most Radio Frequency

(RF) devices such as garage doors,

gates, home and office lighting, entry

door locks and security systems.

. Is powered by your vehicle’s battery.

No separate batteries are required. If

the vehicle’s battery is discharged or is

disconnected, HomeLink® will retain

all programming.

When the HomeLink® Universal Trans-

ceiver is programmed, retain the origi-

nal transmitter for future programming

procedures (Example: new vehicle pur-

chases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the

programmed HomeLink® Universal

Transceiver buttons should be erased

for security purposes. For additional

information, refer to “Programming

HomeLink®” (P.2-53).

WARNING

. Do not use the HomeLink® Uni-

versal Transceiver with any gar-

age door opener that lacks safety

CARGO LIGHT (Coupe models)

TRUNK LIGHT (Roadster models)

HomeLink® UNIVERSAL

TRANSCEIVER (if so equipped)

stop and reverse features as re-

quired by federal safety stan-

dards. (These standards became

effective for opener models man-

ufactured after April 1, 1982). A

garage door opener which cannot

detect an object in the path of a

closing garage door and then

automatically stop and reverse,

does not meet current federal

safety standards. Using a garage

door opener without these fea-

tures increases the risk of serious

injury or death.

. During the programming proce-

dure your garage door or security

gate will open and close (if the

transmitter is within range). Make

sure that people or objects are

clear of the garage door, gate,

etc. that you are programming.

. Your vehicle’s engine should be

turned off while programming

the HomeLink® Universal Trans-

ceiver. Do not breathe exhaust

gases; they contain colorless

and odorless carbon monoxide.

Carbon monoxide is dangerous. It

can cause unconsciousness or

death.

PROGRAMMING HomeLink®

If you have any questions or are having

difficulty programming your HomeLink®

buttons, refer to the HomeLink® web site

at: www.homelink.com or call 1-800-355-

3515.
NOTE:
It is also recommended that a new

battery be placed in the hand-held

transmitter of the device being pro-

grammed to HomeLink® for quicker

programming and accurate transmis-

sion of the radio-frequency.
1. Position the end of your hand-held

transmitter 1-3 in (26-76 mm) away

3. Press and hold the programmed

HomeLink® button and observe the

indicator light.

If the indicator light

is solid/

continuous, programming is com-

plete and your device should acti-

vate when the HomeLink® button is

pressed and released.

If the indicator light

blinks rapidly

for two seconds and then turns to a

solid/continuous light, continue

with Steps 4-6 for a rolling code

device. A second person may make

the following steps easier. Use a

ladder or other device. Do not stand

on your vehicle to perform the next

steps.

4. At the receiver located on the garage

door opener motor in the garage,

locate the “learn” or “smart” button

(the name and color of the button

may vary by manufacturer but it is

usually located near where the hang-

ing antenna wire is attached to the

unit). If there is difficulty locating the

button, reference the garage door

opener’s manual.

5. Press and release the “learn” or “smart”

button.
NOTE:

Once the button is pressed, you have

approximately 30 seconds to initiate

the next step.

6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press

and hold the programmed HomeLink®

having difficulty programming your

HomeLink® buttons, refer to the

HomeLink® web site at: www.

homelink.com or call 1-800-355-3515.

PROGRAMMING HomeLink® FOR

CANADIAN CUSTOMERS AND GATE

OPENERS

Canadian radio-frequency laws require

transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)

after several seconds of transmission –

which may not be long enough for

HomeLink® to pick up the signal during

programming. Similar to this Canadian

law, some U.S. gate operators are de-

signed to “time-out” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having

difficulties programming a gate operator

or garage door opener by using the

“Programming HomeLink®” procedures,

replace “Programming HomeLink®” Step

2 with the following:
NOTE:
When programming a garage door

opener, etc., unplug the device during

the “cycling” process to prevent possi-

ble damage to the garage door opener

components.
Step 2: Using both hands, simultaneously

press and hold the desired HomeLink®

button and the hand-held transmitter

button. During programming, your hand-

held transmitter may automatically stop

transmitting. Continue to press and hold

the desired HomeLink® button while you

press and re-press (“cycle”) your hand-

held transmitter every two seconds until

the frequency signal has been learned.

The HomeLink® indicator light will flash

slowly and then rapidly after several

seconds upon successful programming.

DO NOT release until the HomeLink®

indicator light flashes slowly and then

rapidly. When the indicator light flashes

rapidly, both buttons may be released.

The rapid flashing indicates successful

programming.
Proceed with “Programming HomeLink®”

step 3 to complete.
Remember to plug the device back in

when programming is completed.

OPERATING THE HomeLink® UNI-

VERSAL TRANSCEIVER

The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver,

after it is programmed, can be used to

activate the programmed device. To op-

erate, simply press and release the appro-

priate programmed HomeLink® Universal

Transceiver button. The amber indicator

light will illuminate while the signal is

being transmitted.
For convenience, the hand-held transmit-

ter of the device may also be used at any

time.

PROGRAMMING TROUBLESHOOT-

ING

If the HomeLink® does not quickly learn

the hand-held transmitter information:
. replace the hand-held transmitter

batteries with new batteries.

. position the hand-held transmitter

with its battery area facing away from

the HomeLink® surface.

. press and hold both the HomeLink®

and hand-held transmitter buttons

without interruption.

. position the hand-held transmitter 1-3

in (26-76 mm) away from the

HomeLink® surface. Hold the transmit-

ter in that position for up to 15

seconds. If HomeLink® is not pro-

grammed within that time, try holding

the transmitter in another position -

keeping the indicator light in view at

all times.
