Audi Q5 Homelink System Operating Instructions and Programming PDF Guidelines

Please follow the safety instructions and apply the handbrake. Switch on the ignition. Do not start the engine! Press and hold the two outside buttons I + III – releasing only when the diode begins to flash after approximately 20 seconds. This procedure erases the factory-set default codes and does not have to be followed to program additional remote controls. Press the appropriate HomeLink button I, II or III which you want to program and keep holding it until the diode starts flashing slowly. You will now have 5 minutes to copy the signal from your remote control onto the HomeLink transmitter unit.

Stand in front of your Audi Q5 in the corresponding position of the HomeLink transmitter unit with the original remote control for the gate or garage door opener (or other device). Hold the original remote control at a distance of between 0-30 cm to the corresponding position of the HomeLink transmitter unit. Now activate (press) the remote control. The distance between the remote control and the HomeLink transmitter unit in the bumper depends on the system being programmed. You may require several attempts at different distances. Maintain each setting position for at least 15 seconds before trying out another. Keep your hazard warning lights in view whilst doing this.

The hazard warning lights blink three times to indicate that the programming has been successful. Note: If the training time exceeds the five minutes, the hazard warning lights blink once. If this happens, you should repeat steps 2 to 4. To program the other two buttons, follow steps 2 to 4.

Operating the HomeLink System The vehicle should be within the operating range of the gate or garage door opener and the ignition should be switched on. The HomeLink system operates the gate or garage door opener (or other device) in exactly the same way as the original remote control. When you have programmed the HomeLink system, press the appropriate button I, II, or III on the control panel to activate the gate or garage door opener. The diode will light up when you press the button on the control panel.

For convenience, the original remote control of the device may also be used at any time. Look in your gate or garage door opener manual for clarification. The remote control appears to program HomeLink but HomeLink does not operate the gate or garage door opener. Press and hold down the programmed HomeLink button. With a rolling code system, the HomeLink diode flashes quickly for a short time and then stays on constantly for two seconds. This pattern repeats itself for up to 20 seconds.

Rolling Code Synchronisation You need to check by going through the following steps whether or not your gate or garage door opener (or other device) is equipped with a rolling code feature. If HomeLink was programmed with a rolling code system, then after the end of the programming period it must be synchronised with this system again before it will function properly. Follow the instructions below for Rolling Code synchronisation (the procedure will take less time with a second person to help).
