HomeLink Wireless Control System

WARNING: Do not use the system with

any garage door opener that does not have
the safety stop and reverse feature as
required by U.S. Federal Safety Standards
(this includes any garage door opener
manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage
door opener which cannot detect an object,
signaling the door to stop and reverse, does
not meet current federal safety standards.
Using a garage door opener without these
features increases the risk of serious injury
or death.

Note: Make sure that the garage door and
security device are free from obstruction
when you are programming. Do not program
the system with the vehicle in the garage.

Note: Make sure you keep the original
remote control transmitter for use in other
vehicles as well as for future system
programming.

Note: We recommend that upon the sale or
lease termination of your vehicle, you erase
the programmed function buttons for security
reasons. See Erasing the Function Button
Codes.

Note: You can program a maximum of three
devices. To change or replace any of the
three devices after it has been initially
programmed, you must first erase the current
settings. See Erasing the Function Button
Codes.

E142657

The universal garage door opener replaces
the common hand-held garage door opener
with a three-button transmitter that is
integrated into the driver’s sun visor.

The system includes two primary features, a
garage door opener and a platform for
remote activation of devices within the home.
As well as being programmed for garage
doors, the system transmitter can be
programmed to operate entry gate operators,
security systems, entry door locks and home
or office lighting.

Additional system information can be found
online at www.homelink.com,
www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by
calling the toll-free help line on
1-800-355-3515.

In-Vehicle Programming

This process is to program your hand-held
transmitter and your in-vehicle HomeLink
button.

Note: The programming steps below assume
you will be programming HomeLink that was
not previously programmed.

Note: Put a new battery in the hand-held
transmitter. This will ensure quicker training
and accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency signal.

Gate Operator / Canadian Programming

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 designed to “time-out” in the same
manner.

Note: If programming a garage door opener
or gate operator, it is advised to unplug the
device during the “cycling” process to
prevent possible overheating.

1. Press and hold the HomeLink button

while you press and release, every two
seconds, your hand-held transmitter until
the HomeLink indicator light changes
from a slow to a rapidly blinking light.

2. Release both the HomeLink and

hand-held transmitter buttons.

3. Continue programing HomeLink. See

In-Vehicle Programming.

Erasing the Function Button Codes

Note: You cannot erase individual buttons.

E142660

GENERAL INFORMATION

WARNING: Extended idling at high

engine speeds can produce very high
temperatures in the engine and exhaust
system, creating the risk of fire or other
damage.

WARNING: Do not park, idle or drive

your vehicle on dry grass or other dry ground
cover. The emission system heats up the
engine compartment and exhaust system,
creating the risk of fire.

WARNING: Do not start the vehicle in

a closed garage or in other enclosed areas.
Exhaust fumes can be toxic. Always open
the garage door before you start the vehicle.

WARNING: If you smell exhaust fumes

inside your vehicle, have your vehicle
checked by an authorized dealer
immediately. Do not drive your vehicle if you
smell exhaust fumes.

If you disconnect the battery, your vehicle
may exhibit some unusual driving
characteristics for approximately 5 mi (8 km)
after you reconnect it. This is because the
engine management system must realign
itself with the engine. You can disregard any
unusual driving characteristics during this
period.

The powertrain control system meets all
Canadian interference-causing equipment
standard requirements regulating the
impulse electrical field or radio noise.

When you start your vehicle, avoid pressing
the accelerator pedal until the ready to drive
indicator illuminates. Only use the
accelerator pedal when you have difficulty
starting your vehicle.

KEYLESS STARTING

Note: The keyless starting system may not
function if the key is close to metal objects
or electronic devices such as cellular
phones.

Note: A valid key must be located inside
your vehicle to switch the ignition on and
start the vehicle.
