Driving Your Mazda

Switches and Controls

Form No. 8R65-EA-03C

7. Firmly press and release the "learn" or 

"smart" button. (The name and color of 
the button may vary by manufacturer.)

8. Return to the vehicle and firmly 

press, 

hold for two seconds and release

 the 

programmed HomeLink button. Repeat 
the "

press/hold/release

" sequence a 

second time, and, depending on the 
brand of the garage door opener (or 
other rolling code equipped device), 
repeat this sequence a third time to 
complete the programming process.

HomeLink should now activate your 
rolling code equipped device.

For questions or comments, please contact 
HomeLink at www.homelink.com or

Gate operator/Canadian 
Programming

Canadian radio-frequency laws require 
transmitter signals to "time-out" (or quit) 
after several seconds of transmission - 
which may not be long enough for 
HomeLink to pick up the signal during 
programming. Similar to this Canadian 
law, some U.S. gate operators are 
designed to "time-out" in the same 
manner.

If you live in Canada or you are having 
difficulties programming a gate operator 
by using the "Programming" procedures 
(regardless of where you live), 

replace 

"Programming HomeLink" step 3

 with 

the following:

Continue to press and hold the HomeLink 
button while you 

press and release - 

every two seconds

 ("cycle") your hand-

held transmitter until the frequency signal 
has successfully been accepted by 
HomeLink. (The indicator light will flash 
slowly and then rapidly.)
Proceed with "Programming" step 4 to 
complete.

NOTE

There are 30 seconds in which to 
initiate step 8.

NOTE

To program the remaining two 
HomeLink buttons, begin with 
"Programming" 

 - step 2. Do not 

repeat step 1.

NOTE

If programming a garage door opener 
or gate operator, it is advised to unplug 
the device during the "cycling" process 
to prevent possible overheating.
