Gate Operator And Canadian Programming; Using Homelink - Chevrolet Avalanche Owner's Manual

Gate Operator and Canadian
Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter
signals to "time out" or quit after several seconds of
transmission. This may not be long enough for
®
HomeLink to pick up the signal during programming.
Similarly, some U.S. gate operators are manufactured to
"time out" in the same manner.
If you live in Canada, or you are having difficulty
programming a gate operator by using the
"Programming HomeLink
where you live), replace Step 3 under "Programming
®
HomeLink " with the following:
Continue to press and hold the HomeLink
you press and release every two seconds (cycle)
your hand-held transmitter until the frequency signal has
been successfully accepted by HomeLink
indicator light will flash slowly at first and then rapidly.
Proceed with Step 4 under "Programming HomeLink
to complete.
