ERASING ALL THE HOMELINK® CHANNELSTo erase the channels, follow this procedure:
NOTE Erasing all channels should only be performed when programming HomeLink® for the first time. Do not erase channels when programming additional buttons. IDENTIFYING WHETHER YOU HAVE A ROLLING CODE OR NON-ROLLING CODE DEVICEBefore programming a device to one of your HomeLink® buttons, you must determine whether the device has a rolling code or non-rolling code. Rolling Code Devices To determine if your device has a rolling code, a good indicator is its manufacturing date. Typically, devices manufactured after 1995 have rolling codes. A device with a rolling code will also have a “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button located where the antenna is attached to the device. The button may not be immediately visible when looking at the device. The name and color of the button may vary slightly by manufacturer. NOTE The “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button is not the button you normally use to operate the device. Non-rolling Code Devices Most devices manufactured before 1995 will not have a rolling code. These devices will also not have a “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button. PROGRAMMING HOMELINK® TO A GARAGE DOOR OPENERTo program any of the HomeLink® buttons to activate your garage door opener motor, refer to the following steps: NOTE All HomeLink® buttons are programmed using this procedure. You do not need to erase all channels when programming additional buttons.
NOTE Make sure the garage door opener motor is plugged in before moving on to the rolling code/ non-rolling code final steps. Rolling Code Garage Door Opener Final Steps NOTE You have 30 seconds in which to initiate rolling code final step 2, after completing rolling code final step 1.

WARNING
PROGRAMMING HOMELINK® TO A MISCELLANEOUS DEVICE
NOTE 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 US gate operators are designed to time out in the same manner. The procedure may need to be performed multiple times to successfully pair the device to your HomeLink® buttons. REPROGRAMMING A SINGLE HOMELINK® BUTTONTo reprogram a single HomeLink® button that has been previously trained, without erasing all the channels, refer to the following procedure. Be sure to determine if the new device you want to program the HomeLink® button to has a rolling code or a non-rolling code.
CANADIAN/GATE OPERATOR PROGRAMMINGFor programming transmitters in Canada/United States that require the transmitter signals to “time-out” after several seconds of transmission. 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. It may be helpful to unplug the device during the cycling process to prevent possible overheating of the garage door or gate motor.
NOTE
If you unplugged the garage door opener/device for programming, plug it back in at this time. Reprogramming A Single HomeLink® Button (Canadian/Gate Operator)To reprogram a channel that has been previously trained, follow these steps:
SECURITYIt is advised to erase all channels before you sell or turn in your vehicle. To do this, push and hold the two outside buttons for 20 seconds until the indicator flashes.

If you have any problems or require assistance, please call toll-free at 1-800-355-3515 or, on the Internet at HomeLink.com for information or assistance. WARNING Vehicle exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a dangerous gas. Do not run your vehicle in the garage while programming the transceiver. Exhaust gas can cause serious injury or death. Your motorized door or gate will open and close while you are programming the universal transceiver. Do not program the transceiver if people, pets or other objects are in the path of the door or gate.
