Garage door opener
Garage door opener
For best results, fit a new battery to the
hand-held transmitter of the garage door
opener (or other device) before programming.
If your garage door opener receiver (located in
the garage) is equipped with an antenna,
ensure that the antenna is hanging straight
down.
GARAGE DOOR TRANSCEIVER
Do not use the transceiver with any
garage door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse feature as
required by safety standards.
When programming the transceiver to
a garage door opener or entry gate,
ensure the area is clear. This will
prevent potential harm or damage as
the gate or garage door will activate
during the programme.
PROGRAMMING
This device may suffer from
interference if operated in the vicinity of
a mobile or fixed station transmitter.
This interference is likely to affect the
hand-held transmitter as well as the
in-car transceiver.
This feature is also known as the HomeLink®
Universal Transceiver. See 55, INFORMATION
AND ASSISTANCE.
With the engine switched off;
1. Ensure that the ignition system is on.
2. Hold the signal emitting end of the original
garage door opener hand-held transmitter
50 to 150 mm (2 to 6 inches) away from
the HomeLink transceiver in the rear-view
mirror, keeping the indicator lamp in view.
The HomeLink transceiver is located in the rear
view mirror. It can be programmed to transmit
the radio frequencies of up to three different
transmitters, which can be used to operate
garage doors, entry gates, home lighting,
security systems or other radio frequency
operated devices.
3. Simultaneously press and hold both the
chosen HomeLink button, as shown above,
and the hand-held transmitter button. Keep
both buttons pressed. The indicator lamp
will flash slowly at first and then change to
a fast flash. When the indicator lamp
flashes rapidly, release both buttons. The
rapid flashing lamp indicates successful
programming.
Although this section mainly describes the
procedures for a garage door opener, it equally
applies to the previously mentioned
applications.
BEFORE PROGRAMMING
When programming a device that may
require you to press and re-press the
hand-held transmitter (cycle), unplug
the device during the cycling process to
prevent possible motor failure.
4. If, after 60 seconds, the indicator lamp
does not flash rapidly, release both the
HomeLink and the hand-held transmitter
buttons and repeat the procedure starting
with Step 2. Position the hand-held
transmitter at a different angle and/or
distance.
