Instruments and Controls

6. After Steps 1 through 5 have

been completed, locate inside
the garage the garage door
opener receiver (motor-head
unit). Locate the “Learn” or
“Smart” button. The name and
color of the button may vary by
manufacturer.

7. Firmly press and release the

“Learn” or “Smart” button. After
you press this button, you will
have 30 seconds to complete
Step 8.

8. Immediately return to the

vehicle. Firmly press and hold
the Universal Home Remote
button, selected in Step 3 to
control the garage door, for
two seconds, and then release

it. If the garage door does
not move, press and hold the
same button a second time for
two seconds, and then release
it. Again, if the door does not
move, press and hold the
same button a third time for
two seconds, and then release.

The Universal Home Remote
should now activate the
garage door.

To program the remaining two
Universal Home Remote buttons,
begin with Step 2 of “Programming
the Universal Home Remote
System.” Do not repeat Step 1,
as this will erase all previous
programming from the Universal
Home Remote buttons.

Gate Operator and Canadian
Programming

If you have questions or need
help programming the Universal
Home Remote System, call
1-800-355-3515 or go to
www.homelink.com.

Canadian radio-frequency laws
require transmitter signals to time
out or quit after several seconds of
transmission. This may not be
long enough for Universal Home
Remote 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 or garage door opener by
using the “Programming Universal
Home Remote” procedures,
regardless of where you live,
replace Step 3 under “Programming
Universal Home Remote” with the
following:

Continue to press and hold the
Universal Home Remote button
while you press and release every
two seconds (cycle) the hand-held
transmitter button until the
frequency signal has been
successfully accepted by the
Universal Home Remote.
