Voice Recognition
VOICE RECOGNITION*
Voice control provides a safe and convenient 
way of operating the audio system without the 
need to operate the controls manually. This 
enables you to concentrate fully on driving the 
vehicle, and removes the need to divert your 
attention from the road ahead in order to 
change settings, or receive feedback from the 
system.
A number of voice commands are available, and 
with a little experience you will find them easy 
and convenient to use. Whenever you issue one 
of the defined commands with the system 
active, the voice control system converts your 
command into a control signal for the audio 
system. Your inputs take the form of dialogues 
or commands. You are guided through these 
dialogues by announcements or questions.Activating the system
To activate voice control:
•Briefly pull the control paddle (your Audio 
will mute at this point). A brief acoustic 
signal will be heard, and ‘LISTENING’ will 
be displayed on the main message centre 
to indicate that the system is now waiting 
for a voice command.
Note: It is only necessary to use the steering 
wheel voice control paddle at the beginning of 
each voice session.

messages as memory aids or reminders.
You can record up to 10 notes for up to 30 
seconds each in length. 
Pull the voice paddle towards the steering 
wheel, wait for LISTENING to appear in the 
message centre, then give the Notepad

Land Rover Homelink®
HOMELINK® TRANSMITTER
The Land Rover HomeLink® Universal 
Transmitter is built into the underside of the 
rear view mirror and provides a convenient way 
to replace up to three hand-held transmitters 
with a single built-in device. This innovative 
feature will learn the radio frequency codes of 
most current transmitters to operate garage 
doors and gates. With the available accessory 
package, the HomeLink
® Transmitter can also 
control home or office lighting and security 
systems. For reliability, the HomeLink
® 
Transmitter is powered by your vehicle’s 
battery and charging system.
Precautions
When programming your HomeLink
® 
Transmitter, you will be operating the garage 
door or gate. Be sure that people and objects 
are out of the way, to prevent potential harm or 
damage.
WARNING
Do not use this HomeLink® Transmitter with 
any garage door that lacks safety ’stop’ and 
’reverse’ features, as required by federal 
safety standard (this includes any garage or 
door opener model manufactured before 
April 1, 1982). A garage door opener which 
cannot ’detect’ an object in the path of a 
closing door and then automatically ’stop’ 
and ’reverse’ the door, does not meet current 
federal safety standards. Using a garage door 
opener without these features increases the 
risk of serious injury or death. For more 
information on this matter, call toll-free: 
1-800-355-3515 or consult

Programming
1.Turn the starter switch to position ’ll’.
2.If you have previously programmed your 
HomeLink
® Transmitter, proceed to step 3. 
Otherwise, hold down the two outside 
buttons (1) and (4) on the HomeLink
® 
Transmitter until the red light (3) begins to 
flash (approximately 20 seconds). Release 
both buttons.
This initializes the HomeLink
® Transmitter 
and erases previous settings from all three 
channels.
DO NOT perform this step when 
programming additional hand-held 
transmitters.
3.Decide which one of the three channels you 
want to program.
4.Hold the signal-emitting end of your 
hand-held transmitter 5 - 14 cm (1 - 3 in.) 
away from the HomeLink
® Transmitter 
buttons so that you can still see the red 
status indicator light (4).
5.With one hand, push the hand-held 
transmitter button, and with the other, the 
desired button on the HomeLink
® 
Transmitter. Continue to press both 
buttons through step 6.
6.Hold down both buttons until you see the 
red light on the Land Rover HomeLink
® 
Transmitter flash, first slowly and then 
rapidly. (This could take up to a minute). It 
indicates that you have successfully 
programmed the HomeLink
® Transmitter 
to learn the new frequency signal. Release 
both buttons once the rapid flashing 
begins.
7.Turn the starter switch to position ’0’.If after repeated attempts you do not 
successfully program the HomeLink
® 
Transmitter to learn the signal of the hand-held 
transmitter, call toll-free for customer 
assistance: 1-800-355-3515 or consult 
www.homelink.com.
Operating the Land Rover HomeLink
® 
Transmitter
Once it is programmed, the HomeLink
® 
Transmitter can be used in place of your 
hand-held transmitter(s). To operate, simply 
press the appropriate button on the HomeLink
® 
Transmitter. The red light (3) comes on while 
the signal is being transmitted.
NOTE: If your hand-held transmitter appears to 
program the HomeLink
® Transmitter, but does 
not open your garage door and, if your garage 
door was manufactured after 1995, your garage 
door opener may have a ’code protected’ or 
’rolling code’ feature.
A ’rolling code’ type of system will change the 
’code’ of your garage door opener every time 
you open or close your garage door.
To determine if you have one of these systems, 
depress the button on your HomeLink
® 
Transmitter that you programmed. If the red 
light on the HomeLink
® Transmitter flashes 
rapidly for 1-2 seconds, then lights 
continuously, your garage door opener has a 
rolling code system.

Training a garage door opener equipped with 
’rolling codes’
To train your ’rolling code’ garage door opener 
to operate from your HomeLink
® Transmitter, 
follow these steps:
1.Program your hand-held transmitter to the 
HomeLink
® Transmitter by following the 
procedures outlined previously (if you have 
already completed this programming, 
proceed to the next instruction).
2.Train your garage door opener receiver to 
recognize your HomeLink
® Transmitter: 
(your garage door opener receiver will 
learn to recognize the HomeLink
® 
Transmitter by following the same process 
used to train the hand-held transmitter)
a) Remove the cover panel from your 
garage door opener receiver (the receiver 
should be located by the garage door 
motor).
b) Locate the training button on the garage 
door opener receiver. The exact location 
and color of the button may vary by garage 
door opener brand. If you have difficulty 
locating the training button, reference your 
garage door opener manual, call 
1-800-355-3515 or consult 
www.homelink.com.
c) Press the training button on the garage 
door opener receiver for 1-2 seconds, then 
perform the next step within 30 seconds.
d) Return to the HomeLink
® Transmitter in 
the vehicle and depress the programmed 
button twice. Depress the button to 
confirm that the HomeLink
® Transmitter 
has been trained to the receiver.e) Your garage door opener should now 
recognize your HomeLink
® Transmitter. If 
not, repeat the procedure but in step d) 
press and release the transmitter button 
three times. You may use either your 
HomeLink
® Transmitter or your original 
hand-held transmitter to open your garage 
door.
If after following these suggestions you still 
have difficulties programming your HomeLink
® 
Transmitter, call toll-free for customer 
assistance: 1-800-355-3515 or consult 
www.homelink.com.
Erasing channels
To erase all three programmed channels, hold 
down the two outside buttons (1) and (3) until 
the red light begins to flash, then release both 
buttons. Individual channels cannot be erased, 
but can be reprogrammed using the procedures 
for programming the HomeLink
® Transmitter 
(steps 3 through 6).
