Features

HomeLink® Universal Transceiver

The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver can be programmed to operate up to three 
remote controlled devices around your home, such as garage doors, lighting, or 
home security systems.

Refer to the safety information that came with your garage door opener to test that 
the safety features are functioning properly. If you do not have the safety 
information, contact the manufacturer.

Before programming HomeLink, make sure that people and objects are out of the 
way of the garage or gate to prevent potential injury or damage.

When programming a garage door opener, park just outside the garage door’s 
path.

Training HomeLink

If you have not trained any of the buttons in 
HomeLink before, you should erase any 
previously learned codes. To do this:
• Press and hold the two outside buttons for 

about 20 seconds, until the red indicator 
blinks. Release the buttons, and proceed to 
step 1.

• If you are training the second or third 

button, go directly to step 1.

■

Important Safety Precautions

1

HomeLink® Universal Transceiver

HomeLink® is a registered trademark of Johnson 
Controls., Inc.

Before programming HomeLink to operate a garage 
door opener, confirm that the opener has an external 
entrapment protection system, such as an “electronic 
eye,” or other safety and reverse stop features. If it 
does not, HomeLink may not be able to operate it.
