the device during the “cycling” process to prevent possible overheating.
Proceed with “Programming a New
HomeLink® button” step 4 to complete.
! Using HomeLink®
To operate, simply press and release the
programmed HomeLink® button. Activation will now occur for the trained device
(i.e. garage door opener, gate operator,
security system, entry door lock, home/
office lighting, etc.). For convenience, the
hand-held remote of the device may also
be used at any time.
! Erasing HomeLink® buttons
To erase programming from the three
buttons (individual buttons cannot be
erased but can be “reprogrammed” as
outlined below), follow the step noted:
Press and hold the two outer HomeLink®
buttons for at least 10 seconds. The LED
indicator will change from continuously lit
to rapidly flashing. Release both buttons.
Do not hold for longer than 20 seconds.
HomeLink® is now ready to be programmed at any time beginning with
“Programming a New HomeLink® button”
- step 1.
! Reprogramming a Single
HomeLink® button
To program a previously trained button,
follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink®
button. DO NOT release the button.
2. The indicator light will begin to slowly
flash orange after 20 seconds. The
HomeLink® button can be released at this
point. Proceed with “Programming a New
HomeLink® button” - step 3.
3. If you do not complete the programming of a new device to the button, it will
revert to the previously stored programming.

Range may be reduced by obstacles such
as houses or trees. You may have to slow
your vehicle speed to successfully receive
the garage door opener communication.
! Programming Two-Way Communication
! Garage Door Two-Way Communication
HomeLink® has the capability of communicating with your garage door opener.
HomeLink® can receive and display “closing” or “opening” status messages from
compatible garage door opener systems.
At any time, HomeLink® can also recall
and display the last recorded status
communicated by the garage door opener
to indicate your garage door being
“closed” or “opened”.
Within 5 seconds after programming a
new HomeLink® button, both of HomeLink’s garage door status indicators will
flash rapidly green indicating that the
garage door two-way communication has
been enabled. If your garage door status
indicators flashed, two-way communication programming is complete.
HomeLink® has the capability of receiving
this communication from the garage door
opener at a range up to 820 feet (250 m).
If the garage door status indicators do not
flash, additional HomeLink® information
and programming videos can be found
