GARAGE DOOR TRANSCEIVER

The door transceiver is located in the roof
console. It can be programmed to
transmit the radio frequencies of up to
three different transmitters which can be
used to activate garage doors, entry
gates, home lighting, security systems, or
other radio frequency operated devices.

Although this section mainly describes
the procedures for a garage door opener,
it also equally applies to the previously
mentioned applications.

In some countries this feature is also
known as the HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver. The transceiver radio
frequency approval numbers for the USA,
Canada and Mexico are shown below:

USA and Puerto Rico - FCC: K8597
R315.

Canada - CAN: 2145 101 790A.

Mexico -
CFT/D04/AGIT/DGIH/HOM/6068/01 and
7335/01.

For further information, or for assistance,
contact your Jaguar Dealer, or the
supplier by phone or via the internet.For
details, see Information and Assistance.

Before programming

For best results, fit a new battery to the
hand-held transmitter of the garage door
opener (or other device) before
programming. If your garage door opener
receiver (located in the garage) is
equipped with an antenna, ensure that
the antenna is hanging straight down.

WARNINGS

Do not use the transceiver with
any garage door opener that lacks
the safety stop and reverse

feature as required by safety standards.
Using a garage door opener without
these features increases risk of serious
injury or death.

When programming the
transceiver to a garage door
opener or entry gate, ensure the

area is clear. This will prevent potential
harm or damage as the gate or garage
door will activate during the programme.

CAUTION

This device may suffer from
interference if operated in the
vicinity of a mobile or fixed station

transmitter. This interference is likely to
affect the hand-held transmitter as well
as the in-car transceiver

CAUTION

When programming a device that
may require you to press and
re-press the hand-held transmitter

(cycle), unplug the device during the
cycling process to prevent possible
motor failure.
