HOMELINK

姞 WIRELESS CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

The HomeLink

威 Wireless Control

System, located on the driver’s visor,
provides a convenient way to
replace up to three hand-held
transmitters with a single built-in
device. This feature will learn the
radio frequency codes of most
transmitters to operate garage
doors, entry gate operators, security systems, entry door locks, and
home or office lighting.

When programming your HomeLink

威 Wireless Control System to

a garage door or gate, be sure that people and objects are out of

the way to prevent potential harm or damage.

Do not use the HomeLink

威 Wireless Control System 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 which cannot
detect an object, signaling the door to stop and reverse, does not meet
current U.S. federal safety standards. For more information, contact
HomeLink

威 at: www.homelink.com or 1–800–355–3515.

Retain the original transmitter for use in other vehicles as well as for
future programming procedures (i.e. new HomeLink

威 equipped vehicle

purchase). It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the
programmed Homelink

威 buttons be erased for security purposes, refer to

Programming in this section.

Programming

Do not program HomeLink

威 with the vehicle parked in the garage.

Note: Your vehicle may require the ignition switch to be turned to the
ACC position for programming and/or operation of the HomeLink

威. It is

also recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLink

威 for quicker

training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
