Features of your vehicle
garage door openers. At any time,
HomeLink can also recall and display the
last recorded status communicated by
the garage door opener to indicate your
garage door being "closed" or "opened".
To check if your garage door opener is
compatible with this feature, refer to
www.homelink.com/compatible/Two-
way-Communication. If your garage
door opener has this functionality, AND
the Two-Way Communication indicators
(4), (6) in the mirror appear while the
garage door is opening/closing, then no
further steps are needed. Two-Way
Communication Programming is already
complete. However, if your garage door
opener has this functionality, AND the
Two-Way Communication indicators (4),
(6) in the mirror DO NOT appear while
the garage door is opening/closing, use
the following instructions to enable this
functionality.
1. In your vehicle, press and hold the
programmed HomeLink button for 2
seconds, then release. Confirm that
the garage door is moving. AFTER it
stops, you will have one minute to
complete the following steps:
* A ladder and/or second person may
simplify the following steps.
2. On your garage door opener in your
garage, locate the "Learn" button
(usually near where the hanging
antenna wire is attached to the
garage door opener). If there is diffi-
culty locating this button, refer to the
device's owner's manual.
3. Press and release the "Learn" button.
4. A light on your garage door opener
may flash, and your Two-Way Com-
munication indicators (4), (6) in your
vehicle may flash, confirming comple-
tion of the process.
5. Return to the vehicle and firmly press
and release the programmed Home-
Link button to activate your garage
door. The Two-Way Communication
indicators (4), (6) flash in orange
when the door is moving. Do not
make any additional button presses
until AFTER the garage door has
come to a complete stop.
6. Your Two-Way Communication pro-
gramming is now complete.
NOTICE
If your garage door opener has Two-
Way Communication functionality, it is
possible for HomeLink to stop function-
ing the garage door shortly after initial
programming, if the Two-Way Commu-
nication Programming wasn't properly
completed. This usually happens after
the first 10 times a programmed Home-
Link button is pressed. If you experience
this, completing the "Programming a
New HomeLink Button" and "Two-Way
Communication Programming" will
restore door operation.
4) Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter remote signals to "time-out"
(or quit) after a couple seconds of trans-
mission, which may not be long enough
for HomeLink to pick up the signal
during programming.
If you live in Canada or you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator
or garage door opener by using the pro-
gramming procedures, replace "Pro-
gramming a New HomeLink Button"
step 3 with the following:
While the HomeLink indicator light (7) is
flashing orange, press and release
("cycle") your device's hand-held remote
