NOTE:
When programming a garage door opener,
etc., it is advised to unplug the device dur-
ing the “cycling” process to prevent pos-
sible damage to the garage door opener
components.
OPERATING THE HOMELINK
ா
UNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER
The HomeLink
ா Universal Transceiver (once pro-
grammed) may now be used to activate the ga-
rage door, etc. To operate, simply press the ap-
propriate programmed HomeLink
ா Universal
Transceiver button. The red indicator light will
illuminate while the signal is being transmitted.
PROGRAMMING TROUBLE-
DIAGNOSIS
If the HomeLink
ா does not quickly learn the hand-
held transmitter information:
● replace the hand-held transmitter batteries
with new batteries.
● position the hand-held transmitter with its
battery area facing away from the
HomeLink
ா surface.
● press and hold both the HomeLinkா and
hand-held transmitter buttons without inter-
ruption.
● position the hand-held transmitter 1 - 3
inches (26 - 76 mm) away from the
HomeLink
ா surface. Hold the transmitter in
that position for up to 15 seconds. If
HomeLink
ா is not programmed within that
time, try holding the transmitter in another
position – keeping the indicator light in view
at all times.
If you continue to have programming difficulties,
please contact the NISSAN Consumer Affairs
Department. The phone numbers are located in
the Foreword of this manual.
CLEARING THE PROGRAMMED
INFORMATION
Individual buttons cannot be cleared. However,
to clear all programming, press and hold the two
outside buttons and release when the indicator
light begins to flash (approximately 20 seconds).
ROLLING CODE PROGRAMMING
Rolling code garage door openers (or other roll-
ing code devices) which are “code protected”
and manufactured after 1996, may be deter-
mined by the following:
● Reference the garage door opener Owner’s
Manual for verification.
● The hand-held transmitter appears to pro-
gram the HomeLink ா Universal Transceiver
but does not activate the garage door.
● Press and hold the trained HomeLinkா but-
ton. If the garage door opener has the rolling
code feature, the HomeLink
ா indicator light
will flash rapidly, then remain on after 2 sec-
onds.
To program the HomeLink
ா Universal Transceiver
to a garage door opener with the rolling code
feature, follow these instructions after completing
the “Programming HomeLink
ா” (the aid of a sec-
ond person may make the following procedures
quicker and easier).
1. Locate the training button on the garage
door opener motor unit. Exact location and
color of the button may vary by garage door
opener brand. If there is difficulty locating
the training button, reference the garage
door opener Owner’s Manual.
2. Press the training button on the garage door
opener motor unit (which may activate a
training light).
