3. Touch the HomeLink icon at the top of the Controls
screen.
4. Touch Create HomeLink.
5. On the HomeLink screen, enter a name for the device,
then touch Enter or Add New HomeLink.
6.
Choose the mode you wish to use (Standard, D-
Mode, or UR-Mode), then touch Set Mode.
7. Touch Start and follow the onscreen instructions.
NOTE: If you see a screen called “Train the receiver”
while programming the device, remember that this is
a time-sensitive step. After pressing the Learn/
Program/Smart button on the device's remote
control, you have only approximately 30 seconds to
return to your vehicle and press
Continue, and then
press the trained HomeLink device name twice.
Consider having an assistant to ensure you can
complete this step within 30 seconds.
8.
Once your device is programmed, touch Save to
complete the programming.
9.
Ensure HomeLink works as expected. In some cases,
you may need to repeat the programming process
multiple times before succeeding.
Once programmed, you can operate the device by
touching its corresponding HomeLink icon on the
touchscreen. HomeLink remembers the location of your
programmed devices. When you approach a known
location, the HomeLink control on the touchscreen
automatically appears. When you drive away, it
disappears.
NOTE: For additional assistance or compatibility
questions, contact HomeLink (www.homelink.com or call
1-800-355-3515).
Auto Opening and Closing
To operate a HomeLink device without using the
touchscreen, you can automate the device to open as
you approach, and close as you drive away:
1.
Touch the HomeLink icon at the top of the Controls
screen, touch HomeLink Settings, then choose the
device you want to automate.
2.
Adjust the device's HomeLink settings as needed:
◦
Select the Auto-open when arriving checkbox if
you want the device to open as you approach.
◦ Touch the arrows to specify the distance you want
Model X to be from the device before it opens.
◦
Select the Auto-close when leaving checkbox if
you want the device to close as you drive away.
◦ Select the Auto-fold mirrors checkbox if you want
mirrors to fold when you arrive at the HomeLink
location. This is useful for narrow garages.
◦ Select the
Chime for Auto-open and Auto-close
checkbox if you want Model X to sound a chime
when a signal has been sent to open or close the
device.
As you approach (or drive away from) a device that is
set to operate automatically, the HomeLink status icon
displays a count-down message to let you know when
the device automatically opens or closes. In situations
where you don't want the device to automatically open
or close, touch
Skip Auto-Open or Skip Auto-Close at
any time during the count-down message.
NOTE: Do not rely on HomeLink to ensure the device
fully closes.
Resetting the Location of the
HomeLink Device
If you experience situations in which you sometimes
drive up to your HomeLink device and it doesn't open,
or the touchscreen does not display a
notification as you
approach a programmed device, you may need to reset
the device's location. To do so, park as close as possible
to the HomeLink device (garage door, gate, etc.) and
display the HomeLink settings page by touching the
HomeLink icon at the top of the
Controls screen. Touch
the name of the device you want to reset, then touch
Reset Location.
Deleting a Device
To delete a HomeLink device, touch the HomeLink icon
at the top of the
Controls screen, then touch HomeLink
Settings. Touch the name of the device you want to
delete, then touch Delete.
NOTE: You can also perform a factory reset to erase
your HomeLink settings, along with all other personal
data (saved addresses, music favorites, imported
contacts, etc.). See Erasing Personal Data on page 12.
NOTE: For security reasons, delete your HomeLink
devices if you sell your
Model X.
Troubleshooting HomeLink
Standard Mode
In Standard Mode, Model X records the RF signal from
your HomeLink device's remote control. The
touchscreen instructs you to stand in front of the
vehicle, point the device's remote control at the front
bumper, and press and hold the button until the
headlights
flash. When the headlights flash, Model X has
learned the remote control and you can touch Continue
on the touchscreen. If the headlights do not flash:
