HomeLink universal transceiver (Type A) (if so equipped)
The Type A system does not have an IV 1 on the back of the mirror. Move the mirror to see if the IV is present. If the IV is not on the mirror, use the procedure in this section to program the HomeLink Universal Transceiver. If the IV is on the mirror, use the procedure in “HomeLink universal transceiver (Type B) (if so equipped)”.
The HomeLink Universal Transceiver provides a convenient way to consolidate the functions of up to three individual hand-held transmitters into one built-in device.
HomeLink Universal Transceiver:
● Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF) devices such as garage doors, gates, home and office lighting, entry door locks and security systems.
● Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No separate batteries are required. If the vehicle’s battery is discharged or is disconnected, HomeLink will retain all programming.
Once the HomeLink Universal Transceiver is programmed, retain the original transmitter for future programming procedures (Example: new vehicle purchases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink Universal Transceiver buttons should be erased for security purposes. For additional information, refer to “Programming HomeLink ” later in this section.
WARNING
● Do not use the HomeLink Universal Transceiver with any garage door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by federal safety standards. (These standards became effective for opener models manufactured after April 1, 1982). A garage door opener which cannot detect an object in the path of a closing garage door and then automatically stop and reverse, does not meet current federal safety standards. Using a garage door opener without these features increases the risk of serious injury or death.
● During the programming procedure your garage door or security gate will open and close (if the transmitter is within range). Make sure that people or objects are clear of the garage door, gate, etc. that you are programming.
● Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off while programming the HomeLink Universal Transceiver.
