When programming the HomeLink® Wireless Control System to operate a garage door opener or an entrance gate, unplug the device’s motor from the outlet during programming to prevent motor burnout.

Wireless Control System for the desired
devices, retain the hand-held
transmitters for further programming
or device testing in the event of a
