Programming The Homelink Transmitter - Chevrolet VENTURE 2001 Manual

Programming the HomeLink Transmitter

Do not use the HomeLink Transmitter with any garage
door opener that does not have the "stop and reverse"
safety feature. This includes any garage door opener
model manufactured before April 1, 1982.
Be sure that people and objects are clear of the garage
door you are programming.
Your vehicle's engine should be turned off while
programming the transmitter. Follow these steps to
program up to three channels:
1. If you have previously programmed a transmitter
channel, proceed to Step 2. Otherwise, hold down
the two outside buttons on the HomeLink
Transmitter until the indicator light begins to flash
rapidly (after 20 seconds). Then release the buttons.
This procedure initializes the memory and erases any
previous settings for all three channels.
2. Decide which one of the three channels you want to
program. Hold the end of the hand
about 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the
surface of the HomeLink Transmitter so that you can
still see the indicator light.
3. Using both hands, press the hand
and the desired button on the HomeLink Transmitter.
Continue to press both buttons through Step 4.

4. Hold down both buttons until you see the indicator
light on the HomeLink Transmitter flash slowly and
then rapidly. The rapid flashing indicates that the
HomeLink Transmitter has been programmed.
Release both buttons once the indicator light starts to
flash rapidly.
If you have trouble programming the HomeLink
Transmitter, make sure that you have followed the
directions exactly as described. The HomeLink Transmitter
may not work with older garage door openers that do not
meet current Federal Consumer Safety Standards. If you
cannot program the transmitter after repeated attempts,
refer to "Rolling Code Programming" later in this section
or contact the HomeLink Transmitter manufacturer

Be sure to keep the original hand
in case you need to erase and reprogram the
HomeLink Transmitter.
Canadian Owners: During programming, the
-
hand held transmitter may automatically stop
transmitting after one or two seconds. In this case, you
-
should press and re press the button on the hand
transmitter every two seconds without ever releasing the
button on the HomeLink Transmitter. Release both
buttons when the indicator light on the HomeLink
Transmitter begins to flash rapidly.
