Radio Transmitters And Mobile Phones
Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile phones, CB [Citizen Band] radios, amateur radio, etc.) cannot be used inside the vehicle unless a
separate antenna is mounted externally.
Transmission and reception of these devices may be affected by the shielding effect of the vehicle body. As far as the use of approved mobile
phones is concerned, follow the usage instructions provided by the mobile phone manufacturer.
CAUTION!
The use of these devices inside the passenger compartment (without an external antenna) may cause the electrical systems to malfunction.
This could compromise the safety of the vehicle in addition to constituting a potential hazard for passengers' health.
If mobile phones/laptops/smartphones/tablets are inside the vehicle and/or close to the electronic key, a reduced performance of the Passive
Entry/Keyless Start system may occur may occur.

Before You Begin Programming
HomeLink®
For efficient programming and accurate trans -
mission of the radio-frequency signal, it is
recommended that a new battery be placed in
the hand-held transmitter of the device that is
being programmed to the HomeLink® system.
Make sure your hand-held transmitter is
programmed to activate the device you are
trying to program your HomeLink® button to.
Ensure that your vehicle is parked outside of
the garage before you begin programming.
It is recommended that you erase all the chan -
nels of your HomeLink® before you use it for
the first time.
Erasing All The HomeLink® Channels
To erase the channels, follow this procedure:
1. Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position.

2. Push and hold the two outside HomeLink® buttons (I and III) for up to 20 seconds, or
until the HomeLink® indicator light flashes. NOTE:

Erasing all channels should only be performed
when programming HomeLink® for the first
time. Do not erase channels when program
-
ming additional buttons.
Identifying Whether You Have A Rolling
Code Or Non-Rolling Code Device
Before programming a device to one of your
HomeLink® buttons, determine whether the
device has a rolling code or non-rolling code.
Rolling Code Devices
To determine if your device has a rolling code,
a good indicator is its manufacturing date.
Typically, devices manufactured after 1995
have rolling codes. A device with a rolling code
will also have a “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button
located where the antenna is attached to the
device. The button may not be immediately
visible when looking at the device. The name
and color of the button may vary slightly by
manufacturer.

NOTE:

The “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button is not the
button you normally use to operate the device.
Non-rolling Code Devices
Most devices manufactured before 1995 will
not have a rolling code. These devices will also
not have a “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button.
Programming HomeLink® To A Garage
Door Opener
To program any of the HomeLink® buttons to
activate your garage door opener motor, follow
the steps below:

NOTE:

All HomeLink® buttons are programmed using
this procedure. You do not need to erase all
channels when programming additional buttons.

1. Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position.
2. Place the garage door opener transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the
HomeLink® button you wish to program,
while keeping the HomeLink® indicator
light in view.
3. Push and hold the HomeLink® button you want to program while you push and hold
the garage door opener transmitter button
you are trying to replicate.
4. Continue to hold both buttons and observe the HomeLink® indicator light. The
HomeLink® indicator light will flash slowly
and then rapidly. Once this happens,
release both buttons.

NOTE:

Make sure the garage door opener motor is
plugged in before moving on to the rolling
code/non-rolling code final steps.

Rolling Code Garage Door Opener Final Steps

NOTE:

You have 30 seconds in which to initiate rolling
code final step 2, after completing rolling code
final step 1.
1. At the garage door opener motor (in thegarage), locate the “LEARN” or “TRAIN”
button. This can usually be found where
the hanging antenna wire is attached to
the garage door opener motor. Firmly push
and release the “LEARN” or “TRAIN”
button.
2. Return to the vehicle and push the programmed HomeLink® button three
times (holding the button for two seconds
each time). If the garage door opener
motor operates, programming is complete.
3. Push the programmed HomeLink® button to confirm that the garage door opener
motor operates. If the garage door opener
motor does not operate, repeat the final
steps for the rolling code procedure. Non-Rolling Code Garage Door Opener Final
Steps

1. Push and hold the programmed HomeLink®
button and observe the HomeLink®
indicator light. If the HomeLink® indicator
light stays on constantly, programming is
complete.

2. Push the programmed HomeLink® button to confirm that the garage door opener
motor operates. If the garage door opener
motor does not operate, repeat the steps
from the beginning.Programming HomeLink® To A
Miscellaneous Device

Follow the procedure on programming
HomeLink® to a garage door opener

Ú
page 39.
Be sure to determine if the device has a rolling
code, or non-rolling code before beginning the
programming process.

NOTE:

Canadian radio frequency laws require trans -
mitter signals to time-out (or quit) after several
seconds of transmission, which may not be
long enough for HomeLink® to pick up the
signal during programming. Similar to this
Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are
designed to time-out in the same manner. The
procedure may need to be performed multiple
times to successfully pair the device to your
HomeLink® buttons.
Reprogramming A Single HomeLink®
Button
To reprogram a single HomeLink® button that
has been previously trained, without erasing
all the channels, follow the procedure below.
Be sure to determine whether the new device
you want to program the HomeLink® button to
has a Rolling Code, or Non-rolling Code.
WARNING!
Your motorized door or gate will open and
close while you are programming the
universal transceiver. Do not program the
transceiver if people or pets are in the
path of the door or gate.

Do not run your vehicle in a closed garage or
confined area while programming the trans -
ceiver. Exhaust gas from your vehicle
contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is
odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide is
poisonous when inhaled and can cause you
and others to be severely injured or killed.

Frequently Asked Questions:
What happens if I accidentally push the SOS -
Emergency Call Button? You have 10 seconds
after pushing the emergency button to cancel
the call. To cancel the call, push the button
again.
What type of information is sent when I make
an SOS - Emergency Call from my vehicle?
Certain vehicle information, such as the VIN, is
transmitted along with last known GPS loca-
tion. Also note that emergency service opera -
tors may record conversations and sounds
within your vehicle once a connection is made,
and by using the service you consent to having
this information shared.
When can I use the SOS - Emergency
Call button? You can ONLY Use the
SOS - Emergency Call button to
make a call if you or someone else
needs emergency assistance.

Do not add any aftermarket electrical
equipment to the vehicle’s electrical
system. This may prevent your vehicle from
sending a signal to initiate an emergency
call. To avoid interference that can cause
the SOS-Emergency Call system to fail,
never add aftermarket equipment (e.g.,
two-way mobile radio, CB radio, data
recorder, etc.) to your vehicle’s electrical
system or modify the antennas on your
vehicle. IF YOUR VEHICLE AND SYSTEM
LOSES BATTERY POWER FOR ANY REASON
(INCLUDING DURING OR AFTER AN ACCI -
DENT) THE SOS FEATURES, APPS AND
SERVICES AMONG OTHERS WILL NOT
OPERATE.

The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC)
turns on the air bag warning light in the
instrument cluster if a malfunction in any
part of the air bag system is detected. If
the air bag warning light is illuminated, the
air bag system may not be working prop -
erly and the SOS-Emergency Call system
may not be able to send a signal to an
emergency service operator. If the air bag
warning light is illuminated, contact the
Service Network to have the air bag
system checked immediately.
WARNING! (Continued)
Ignoring the LED on the SOS-Emergency
Call button could mean you will not have
emergency call services if needed. If the
LED on SOS-Emergency Call button is illu -
minated red, contact the Service Network
to have the emergency call system
checked immediately.
If anyone in the vehicle could be in danger
(e.g., fire or smoke is visible, dangerous
road conditions or location), do not wait
