Programming and Information Guide
The following is suggested text to be included in the vehicle Owner’s Manual, to assist the End
User with functionality of their HomeLink Device. Italicized text is not intended to be part of the
manual text, just provided for clarification only.
The HomeLink Wireless Control System provides a convenient way to replace up to three handheld radio-frequency (RF) transmitters used to activate devices such as gate operators, garage
door openers, entry door locks, security systems, even home lighting. Additional HomeLink
information can be found at www.HomeLink.com, www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex, or by
calling the toll-free HomeLink-Hotline at 1-800-355-3515
Before Programming HomeLink
During programming, it is possible that garage doors, gates, or other devices may
operate. For this reason, make sure that people and objects are clear of the garage door
or other devices to prevent injury or other potential harm.
Do not use HomeLink with any garage door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse
features as required by U.S. federal safety standards (this includes any garage door
opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door that cannot detect an
object - signaling the door to stop and reverse - does not meet current U.S. federal safety
standards.
It is recommended that a new battery be placed in the remote control transmitter for more
accurate programming.
Garage door opener motors manufactured after 1995 may be equipped with rolling code
protection. If this is the case, you may need a stepladder or other sturdy, safe device to
reach the “Learn” or “Smart” button on the garage door motor.
Retain the original transmitter of the RF device you are programming for use in other
vehicles as well as for future HomeLink programming.
It is suggested that upon the sale or lease termination of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink buttons be erased for security purposes. Refer to “Erasing HomeLink Buttons”
later in these instructions.
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 HomeLink Buttons’ or ‘Reprogramming a Single HomeLink Button’ later in
these instructions.
Please note that the instructions below apply to the majority of HomeLink use cases. However,
there are some HomeLink applications or HomeLink compatible systems that require slightly
different instructions.

Programming a New HomeLink
Note: Some vehicles may require the ignition switch to be turned on or to the second
(“accessories”) position for programming and/or operation of HomeLink.
1. Press the HomeLink button that you would like to program. The indicator light will flash
slowly (if not, refer to “Erasing HomeLink Buttons” later in these instructions). You do not
need to continue holding the HomeLink button.
2. Position the end of your hand-held transmitter 1–3 inches (2–8 cm) away from the HomeLink
button while keeping the indicator light in view.
Note: Some hand-held transmitters may actually train better a distance of 6-12 inches
(15-20 cm). Keep this in mind if you have difficulty with the Programming Process.
3. Press and hold the hand-held transmitter button while watching the indicator light on
HomeLink. Continue pressing the button until the HomeLink indicator light changes from
slowly flashing to either rapidly flashing (rolling code) or continuously lit (fixed code). Now
you may release the hand-held transmitter button.
Note: Some devices may require you to replace this “Programming a New HomeLink”
step 3 with procedures noted in the “Gate Operator / Canadian Programming” section. If
the HomeLink indicator light does not change to a rapidly flashing light after performing these
steps, contact HomeLink at www.HomeLink.com
4. Press the just-trained HomeLink button and observe the indicator light.
•
If the indicator light stays on constantly, programming is complete and your device
should activate when the HomeLink button is pressed and released.
•
If the indicator rapidly flashes, firmly press, hold for two seconds and release the
programmed HomeLink button. Repeat the "press/hold/release" sequence a second
time, and, depending on the brand of the garage door opener (or other rolling code
equipped device), repeat this sequence a third time to complete the programming
process. At this point if your device operates, programming is complete.
•
If the garage door does not operate, continue with “Programming a New
HomeLink” steps 5-7 to complete the programming of a rolling code equipped
device.
5. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in the garage, locate the “Learn” or
“Smart” Button. This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to
the motor-head unit (see the Garage Door Opener manual to identify the “Learn Button”).

6. Firmly press and release the “Learn” or “Smart” button. (The name and color of the button
may vary by manufacturer.) There are typically 30 seconds to initiate step 7.
7. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two seconds and release the programmed
HomeLink button. Repeat the “press/hold/release” sequence a second time, and,
depending on the brand of the garage door opener (or other rolling code equipped device),
repeat this sequence a third time to complete the programming process.
HomeLink should now activate your rolling code equipped device.
In the event that there are still programming difficulties or questions, additional HomeLink
information and programming videos can be found online at www.HomeLink.com,
youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by calling the HomeLink Hotline.
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.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties programming a gate operator or garage door
opener by using the “Programming” procedures, replace “Programming a New HomeLink”
step 3 with the following:
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.
3. Press and release - every two seconds (“cycle”) your hand-held transmitter until the
HomeLink indicator light changes from slowly flashing to either rapidly flashing (rolling
code) or continuously lit (fixed code). Now you may release the hand-held transmitter
button.
Proceed with “Programming a New HomeLink” 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 transmitter 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:
1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink buttons for at least 10 seconds. The LED indicator
will change from continuously lit to rapidly flashing.
2. Release both buttons.
Note: Do not hold for longer than 20 seconds.
3. HomeLink is now in the train (or learning) mode and can be programmed at any time
beginning with “Programming a New HomeLink” - step 1.
Reprogramming a Single HomeLink Button
To program a device to HomeLink using a button previously trained, 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 after 20 seconds. The
HomeLink button may be released at this point. Proceed with “Programming a New
HomeLink” - step 2
3. If you do not complete the programming of a new device to the button, it will revert to
the previously stored programming.
