How OnStar Service Works

The OnStar system can record
and transmit vehicle information.
This information is automatically
sent to an OnStar Call Center when
the OnStar button is pressed, the
emergency button is pressed,
or if the airbags or AACN system
deploy. This information usually
includes the vehicle’s GPS location
and, in the event of a crash,
additional information regarding
the crash that the vehicle was
involved in (e.g. the direction from
which the vehicle was hit). When the
Virtual Advisor feature of OnStar
Hands-Free Calling is used,
the vehicle also sends OnStar the
vehicle’s GPS location so they
can provide services where
it is located.

Features and Controls

2-43

OnStar service cannot work unless
the vehicle is in a place where
OnStar has an agreement with a
wireless service provider for service
in that area. OnStar service also
cannot work unless the vehicle is in
a place where the wireless service
provider OnStar has hired for
that area has coverage, network
capacity and reception when
the service is needed, and
technology that is compatible with
the OnStar service. Not all services
are available everywhere,
particularly in remote or enclosed
areas, or at all times.

Location information about the
vehicle is only available if the GPS
satellite signals are unobstructed
and available.

The vehicle must have a working
electrical system, including adequate
battery power, for the OnStar
equipment to operate. There are
other problems OnStar cannot

control that may prevent OnStar
from providing OnStar service at
any particular time or place.
Some examples are damage to
important parts of the vehicle in a
crash, hills, tall buildings, tunnels,
weather or wireless phone network
congestion.

Your Responsibility

Increase the volume of the radio if
the OnStar advisor cannot be heard.
If the light next to the OnStar
buttons is red, the system may not
be functioning properly. Press
the OnStar button and request a
vehicle diagnostic. If the light
appears clear (no light is appearing),
your OnStar subscription has
expired and all services have been
deactivated. Press the OnStar
button to confirm that the OnStar
equipment is active.

light above the Universal Home
Remote buttons, follow the
instructions below.

This system provides a way to
replace up to three remote control
transmitters used to activate devices
such as garage door openers,
security systems, and home
automation devices.

Do not use the Universal Home
Remote with any garage door
opener that does not have the stop
and reverse feature. This includes
any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982.

Read the instructions completely
before attempting to program

Programming the Universal
Home Remote System

For questions or help programming
the Universal Home Remote
System, call 1-800-355-3515 or go
to www.homelink.com.

Programming a garage door opener
involves time-sensitive actions,
so read the entire procedure before
starting. Otherwise, the device
will time out and the procedure will
have to be repeated.

To program up to three devices:

1. From inside the vehicle, press

and hold down the two outside
buttons at the same time,
releasing only when the Universal
Home Remote indicator light
begins to flash, after 20 seconds.
This step will erase the factory
settings or all previously
programmed buttons.

Do not hold down the buttons for
longer than 30 seconds and do
not repeat this step to program
the remaining two Universal
Home Remote buttons.

2. Hold the end of your hand-held

transmitter about 1 to 3 inches
(3 to 8 cm) away from the
Universal Home Remote buttons
while keeping the indicator light in
view. The hand-held transmitter
was supplied by the manufacturer
of your garage door opener
receiver (motor head unit).

3. At the same time, press and

hold both the Universal Home
Remote button to be used
to control the garage door and
the hand-held transmitter button.
Do not release the Universal
Home Remote button or
the hand-held transmitter button
until Step 4 has been completed.

Some entry gates and garage
door openers may require
substitution of Step 3 with the
procedure noted in “Gate
Operator and Canadian
Programming” later in this
section.

2-46

Features and Controls

4. The indicator light on the

Universal Home Remote
will flash slowly at first and then
rapidly after Universal Home
Remote successfully receives the
frequency signal from the
hand-held transmitter. Release
both buttons.

5. Press and hold the newly-trained

Universal Home Remote button
and observe the indicator light.

If the indicator light stays on
continuously, the programming is
complete and the garage door
should move when the Universal
Home Remote button is pressed
and released. There is no need
to continue programming Steps 6
through 8.

If the Universal Home Remote
indicator light blinks rapidly
for two seconds and then turns
to a constant light, continue
with the programming Steps 6
through 8.

It may be helpful to have another
person assist with the remaining
steps.

6. After Steps 1 through 5 have

been completed, locate inside
the garage the garage door
opener receiver (motor-head
unit). Locate the “Learn” or
“Smart” button. The name and
color of the button may vary
by manufacturer.

7. Firmly press and release the

“Learn” or “Smart” button.
After you press this button,
you will have 30 seconds
to complete Step 8.

8. Immediately return to the vehicle.

Firmly press and hold the
Universal Home Remote button,
chosen in Step 3 to control
the garage door, for two seconds,
and then release it. If the
garage door does not move,
press and hold the same button
a second time for two seconds,
and then release it. Again, if
the door does not move, press
and hold the same button a
third time for two seconds, and
then release.

The Universal Home Remote
should now activate the
garage door.

To program the remaining
two Universal Home Remote
buttons, begin with Step 2 of
“Programming the Universal Home
Remote System.” Do not repeat
Step 1, as this will erase all previous
programming from the Universal
Home Remote buttons.

Gate Operator and Canadian
Programming

If you have questions or need help
programming the Universal
Home Remote System, call
1-800-355-3515 or go to
www.homelink.com.

Canadian radio-frequency laws
require transmitter signals to time
out or quit after several seconds of
transmission. This may not be
long enough for Universal Home
Remote to pick up the signal during
programming. Similarly, some
U.S. gate operators are
manufactured to time out in the
same manner.

If you live in Canada, or you are
having difficulty programming a gate
operator or garage door opener
by using the “Programming
Universal Home Remote”
procedures, regardless of where

you live, replace Step 3 under
“Programming Universal Home
Remote” with the following:

Continue to press and hold the
Universal Home Remote button
while you press and release every
two seconds (cycle) the hand-held
transmitter button until the frequency
signal has been successfully
accepted by the Universal Home
Remote. The Universal Home
Remote indicator light will flash
slowly at first and then rapidly.
Proceed with Step 4 under
“Programming Universal Home
Remote” to complete.

Using Universal Home Remote

Press and hold the appropriate
Universal Home Remote button
for at least half of a second.
The indicator light will come on
while the signal is being transmitted.

Erasing Universal Home
Remote Buttons

The programmed buttons should be
erased when the vehicle is sold
or the lease ends.

To erase all programmed buttons on
the Universal Home Remote device:

1. Press and hold down the

two outside buttons until
the indicator light begins to flash,
after 20 seconds.

2. Release both buttons.
