Using HomeLink®*1
Once HomeLink® is programmed, it can be used instead of the separate remote controls.
Press and hold the programming button. The garage door, gate, alarm system, etc. will be activated (this may take several seconds). If the button is held down for more than 20 seconds, reprogramming will begin. The indicator light will glow steadily or flash when the button has been pressed. The original remote controls may be used concurrently with HomeLink® if desired.
Note
When the ignition is switched off, HomeLink® will be active for at least 7 minutes.
Note
HomeLink® cannot be used if the vehicle is locked and the alarm is armed* from the outside.
Warning
- If you use HomeLink® to open a garage door or gate, be sure no one is near the gate or door while it is in motion.
- 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. For more information, contact HomeLink at: homelink.com.
