STARTING AND DRIVING

Programming HomeLink^®*³⁶

Follow these instructions to program

HomeLink^®, reset all programming or repro-

gram individual buttons.

1. Aim the remote control towards the

HomeLink^®button to be programmed and

hold it approx. 2-8 cm (approx. 1-3 inches)

from the button. Do not obstruct the indi-

cator lamp on HomeLink^®.

3. Do not release the buttons until the indica-

tor lamp has switched from flashing

slowly (approx. once per second) to either

flashing quickly (approx. 10 times per sec-

ond) or illuminating with a constant glow.

NOTE

> If the indicator lamp illuminates with

a constant glow: Indication that the

programming has finished. Press the

programmed button twice to activate.

Note: The ability of some remote controls

to program HomeLink^®is improved at a

distance of approx. 15-20 cm (approx.

6-12 inches). Bear this in mind if problems

occur with the programming.

In certain vehicles the ignition must be

switched on or in "accessory position"

before HomeLink^®can be programmed or

used. If possible, fit new batteries in the

remote control that shall be replaced by

HomeLink^®for faster programming and

improved transmission of the radio signal.

The HomeLink^®buttons should be reset

before programming.

If the indicator lamp flashes quickly:

The device to be programmed to

HomeLink^®may have a security func-

tion that requires extra steps. Test by

pressing the programmed button twice

to see whether the programming is

working. Otherwise, continue with the

following steps.

2. Press and hold depressed both the button

on the remote control and the button to be

reprogrammed on HomeLink^®.

WARNING

While programming HomeLink^®, the

garage door or gate being programmed

may activate. For this reason, make sure

that nobody is in the vicinity of the door or

gate while programming is in progress. The

car should be outside the garage while a

garage door opener is being programmed.

Reprogramming individual buttons

To reprogram an individual HomeLink^®button,

proceed as follows:

1. Press the desired button and hold it

depressed for approx. 20 seconds.

Once the indicator lamp on HomeLink^®

starts to flash slowly, programming can

continue as normal.

4. Locate programming button³⁷on the

receiver for the garage door or similar. It is

normally located close to the antenna's

bracket on the receiver.

Note: If the button to be reprogrammed is

not programmed with a new unit, it will

resume the previously saved program-

ming.

5. Depress and release the receiver's pro-

gramming button once. The programming

must be completed within 30 seconds of

the button being depressed.

HomeLink^®that you want to program.

Repeat the sequence of pressing/holding/

releasing a second time and, depending

on the receiver model, even a third time.
