HOMELINKUNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (if so equipped)  
SYSTEM OPERATING TIPS  
Garage doors, electrical gates, entry doors, etc. will be activated during programming.  
To avoid injury, make sure that people and objects are clear of all doors or gates during  
programming. Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off while programming the  
HomeLinkTransceiver.  
To program your HomeLinkTransceiver to operate a garage door, gate, or entry door  
opener, home or office lighting, you need to be at the same location as the device.  
NOTE: Garage door openers (manufactured after 1996) have “rolling code pro-  
tection”. To program a garage door opener equipped with “rolling code protec-  
tion”, you will need to use a ladder to get up to the garage door opener motor to  
be able to access the “smart” or “learn” program button.  
PROGRAMMING YOUR HOMELINKUNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (Mirror,  
Sun Visor or Overhead Console)  
1. To begin, press and hold the two  
outer HomeLinkbuttons (to clear  
the memory) until the indicator light  
blinks slowly (after 20 seconds).  
Release both buttons.  
2. Position the end of the hand-held  
transmitter 1-3 in (26-76 mm) away  
from the HomeLinksurface.  
16  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
3. Using both hands, simultaneously press and hold both the HomeLinkbutton you want  
to program and the hand-held transmitter button. DO NOT release the buttons until  
step 4 has been completed.  
4. Hold down both buttons until the indicator light on the HomeLinkflashes, changing  
from a “slow blink” to a “rapidly flashing blink”. This could take up to 90 seconds. When  
the indicator light flashes rapidly, both buttons may be released. The rapidly flashing  
light indicates successful programming. To activate the garage door or other pro-  
grammed device, press and hold the programmed HomeLinkbutton - releasing when  
the device begins to activate.  
5. If the indicator light on the HomeLinkblinks rapidly for two seconds and then turns  
solid, HomeLinkhas picked up a “rolling code” garage door opener signal. You will  
need to proceed with the next steps to train the HomeLinkto complete the program-  
ming, which may require a ladder and another person for convenience.  
6. Press and release the “smart” or “learn” program button located on the garage door  
opener’s motor to activate the “training mode”. This button is usually located near the  
antenna wire that hangs down from the motor. If the wire originates from under a light  
lens, you will need to remove the lens to access the program button.  
NOTE: Once you have pressed and released the program button on the garage  
door opener’s motor and the “training light” is lit, you have 30 seconds in which  
to perform step 7. Use the help of a second person for convenience to assist when  
performing this step.  
7. Quickly within 30 seconds of pressing and releasing the garage door opener program  
button, firmly press and release the HomeLinkbutton you’ve just programmed. Press  
and release the HomeLinkbutton up to three times to complete the training.  
8. Your HomeLinkbutton should now be programmed. (To program the remaining  
HomeLinkbuttons for additional door or gate openers, follow steps 2-8 only.)

PAIRING YOUR PHONE  
To use the hands-free feature, you need to set-up, or pair, the system to recognize your  
compatible cellular phone(s). Five Bluetooth-enabled phones can be paired. After set-up,  
the system automatically connects with a paired phone when the ignition is in the ACC or ON  
position, as long as the phone is on and in the vehicle.  
PAIRING PROCEDURE  
NOTE: The vehicle must be stationary when pairing the phone.  
1. Press the  
button on the steering wheel and wait for the tone.  
2. Say “Setup”.  
3. Wait for the tone, then say “Pair phone”.  
4. Wait for the tone, then say “New phone”.  
5. Initiate pairing from the phone.

When prompted for a PASSKEY code, enter “1234” from the handset. (The PASS-  
KEY code is assigned by NISSAN and cannot be changed.)  
6. Say a name for the phone when the system asks you to provide one. You can give the  
phone a name of your choice.  
7. Say a number between 1 and 5 when the system asks you for a priority level. The priority  
level determines which phone interacts with the system when two or more paired  
phones are active in the vehicle at the same time. Choose 1 if this is the only phone or  
the primary phone.  
8. Say “Yes” or “No” when the system asks if you would like to select a custom ring tone.
