UNIVERSAL GARAGE DOOR
OPENER (HOMELINK®)
HomeLink® Buttons
Use this QR code to access your
digital experience.
HomeLink® replaces up to
three hand-held transmitters
that operate devices such as
garage door openers,
motorized gates, lighting, or
home security systems. The HomeLink® unit is
powered by your vehicle’s 12 Volt battery.
The HomeLink® buttons that are located in
the overhead console or sunvisor designate
the three different HomeLink® channels.
To operate HomeLink®, push and release any
of the programmed HomeLink® buttons.
These buttons will activate the devices they
are programmed to with each press of the
corresponding HomeLink® button.
The HomeLink® indicator light is located
above the center button.

NOTE:
HomeLink® is disabled when the Vehicle Security
system is active
Ú
page 259.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN PROGRAMMING
H
OMELINK®
For efficient programming and accurate
transmission of the Radio Frequency (RF) 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
channels of your HomeLink® before you use it for
the first time.
If you require assistance, please call toll-free
1-800-355-3515 or visit

HomeLink.com

ERASING ALL THE HOMELINK®
C
HANNELS
To erase the channels, follow this procedure:
1. Place the ignition switch in the ON/RUN posi -
tion. 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 programming addi -
tional buttons.
IDENTIFYING WHETHER YOU HAVE A
R
OLLING CODE OR NON-ROLLING CODE
D
EVICE
Before programming a device to one of your
HomeLink® buttons, you must 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.
1 — HomeLink® Button 1
2 — HomeLink® Button 2
3 — HomeLink® Button 3

TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
If you are having trouble programming
HomeLink®, here are some of the most common
solutions:
Replace the battery in the garage door opener
hand-held transmitter.
Push the LEARN button on the garage door
opener to complete the training for a rolling
code.
Did you unplug the device for programming
and remember to plug it back in?

please call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 or on the
Internet at

HomeLink.com
for information or
assistance.
EXTERIOR LIGHTS
HEADLIGHT SWITCH
The headlight switch is located on the left side of
the instrument panel, next to the steering wheel.
The headlight switch controls the operation of the
headlights, parking lights, instrument panel
lights, instrument panel light dimming, interior
lights and rear fog lights.
In addition, there are buttons for the ParkSense
system and Engine Stop/Start

Ú
page 86.
Headlight Switch The instrument panel and the various controls on
the dashboard will be illuminated when the
exterior lights are turned on.
To turn on the headlights, rotate the headlight
switch clockwise. When the headlight switch is
on, the parking lights, taillights, license plate light
and instrument panel lights are also turned on. To
turn off the headlights, rotate the headlight
switch back to the O (off) position.
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (DRLS)
The Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) (low intensity)
come on automatically whenever the ignition is
placed in the ON/RUN position, and the headlight
switch is turned to the position, and the dusk
sensor detects sufficient external light.
On some vehicles, the Daytime Running Lights
may deactivate, or reduce intensity, on one side
of the vehicle (when a turn signal is activated on
that side), or on both sides of the vehicle (when
the hazard warning lights are activated).
If equipped, the DRLs can be activated/
deactivated from the radio system, by selecting
the following functions in sequence on the main
MENU:
1. Settings
2. Lights
3. Daytime Running Lights

NOTE:
The Daytime Running Lights
cannot be deacti -
vated in Canadian markets.
WARNING!
Vehicle exhaust contains carbon monoxide,
a dangerous gas. Do not run your vehicle in
the garage while programming the
transceiver. Exhaust gas can cause serious
injury or death.
Your motorized door or gate will open and
close while you are programming the
universal transceiver. Do not program the
transceiver if people, pets or other objects
are in the path of the door or gate. Only use
this transceiver with a garage door opener
that has a “stop and reverse” feature as
required by Federal safety standards. This
includes most garage door opener models
manufactured after 1982. Do not use a
garage door opener without these safety
features.1 — ParkSense Button
2 — Headlight Control Switch
3 — Instrument Panel Dimmer

illuminated, move the multifunction lever
(located on the left side of the steering wheel) to
the side that you want to remain on. With the
parking lights on, the indicator light on the
instrument panel will illuminate.
To turn off the parking lights, rotate the headlight
switch back to the O (off) position.
HEADLIGHT OFF DELAY
To assist when exiting the vehicle, the “Headlight
Off Delay” feature will leave the headlights on for
up to 90 seconds. This delay is initiated when the
ignition is placed in the OFF position while the
headlight switch is on, and then the headlight
switch is cycled off. Headlight delay can be
canceled by either turning on the headlights or
side lights, or by placing the ignition in the ON
position.
The function can be activated from the radio
system by selecting the following functions in
sequence on the main menu:
1. Settings
2. Lights
3. Headlight Off Delay
REAR FOG LIGHTS
The rear fog light switch is located within the
headlight switch.
Push the button, located in the center of the
headlight switch, to turn the rear fog lights on/off.
The rear fog lights turn on only when the
headlights or parking lights are also turned on.
The lights can be turned off by pushing the
button again or by turning the headlight switch to
the O (off) position.
When the engine is stopped with the rear fog
lights on, they will be off the next time the engine
is started.
ADAPTIVE HEADLIGHT SYSTEM —
I
F EQUIPPED
This is a system combined with Xenon headlights
(Bi-Xenon 35 W headlamp, if equipped) which
directs the headlights horizontally, and contin -
uously and automatically adapts them to the
driving conditions around bends or when
cornering.
The system directs the headlights to light up the
road in the best way, taking into account the
speed of the vehicle and the bend or corner
angle, as well as the speed at which the steering
wheel is turned.
The adaptive lights are automatically activated
when the vehicle is started.
TURN SIGNALS

moving beyond the detent, and the turn signal will
flash five times then automatically turn off.
To turn off the flashing before the end of the
cycle, move the lever in the opposite direction
until the first click (about half way).
INTERIOR LIGHTS
Courtesy lights are turned on when the front
doors are opened or when the dimmer control is
rotated to its farthest upward position. The glove
compartment light turns on automatically when
the glove compartment is opened and turn off
when it is closed. The door courtesy lights
illuminate when one of the front doors is opened,
and turn off when it is closed. The liftgate
courtesy lights turn on automatically when the
liftgate is opened and turn off when it is closed.
All of these lights turn on and off regardless of the
ignition status.

headlights are on. Push the
multifunction control lever away from
you to switch the headlights to high
beam. Push the lever a second time to switch the
headlights back to low beam. Pull the lever
toward you for a temporary high beam on,
“flash to pass” scenario.
RED SYMBOLS
Alfa Steering Torque (AST) Failure
The switching on of the telltale signals a
failure in the automatic steering
correction system.
Contact an authorized dealer to have the system
checked.
Alternator Failure
The switching on of the telltale with
engine on corresponds to an alternator
failure.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Automatic Transmission Failure
The telltale turns on, together with a
buzzer warning, to indicate that the
automatic transmission is faulty.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Brake Disc Temperature
When the symbol turns on, it indicates
an excessive temperature of the brake
discs. Let the breaking system cool
down by reducing the speed.
Driver Attention Assist (DAA) System
Activation
The DAA system detects indications that
the driver is feeling fatigued and
illuminates this warning that the driver
should pull over and take a break.
Stop to pause while driving, pulling the car over in
safe conditions.
Door Open
The telltale turns on when one or more
doors are not completely shut. An
acoustic signal is activated with the
doors open and the car moving.
Close the doors properly.
Power Steering Failure
If the telltale remains on, you may
not have steering assistance and the
effort required to operate the steering
wheel may be increased; steering is,
however, possible.

NOTE:
After the battery is disconnected, the steering
wheel must be initialized. The Power Steering
Failure light on the instrument panel will illumi -
nate to indicate this. To carry out this procedure,
simply turn the steering wheel all the way from
one end to the other, and then turn it back to the
central position.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Warning
Light
This warning light, along with the related
message, signals a failure in the ETC.
If a failure is detected, the warning light turns on
while the engine is running.
Place the gear selector in the Park (P) position
and the ignition in the off position: the warning
light should switch off. If the warning light stays
on with engine running, the vehicle can still be
driven.
If the warning light flashes with the engine
running, immediate intervention is required. A
loss of performance, irregular/high idling speed
or engine stopping might take place and the
vehicle may need to be towed.
Contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible
to have the failure eliminated.
CAUTION!
Driving the vehicle with this symbol on may
severely damage the gearbox, with resulting
breakage. The oil may also overheat: contact
with hot engine or with exhaust components
at high temperature could cause fires.
