Homelink
Universal remote
control
General information
Applies to vehicles: with Home link unive rsal remote con­
tro l
The Homelink universal remote control can
be programmed with hand -held transmitters
from existing equipment
Using the Homelink universal remote control,
you can operate equ ipment such as garage
doors, property gates and house lights from inside your vehicle .
Using the Homelink universal remote control,
you can replace up to three separate hand ­
held transmitters for equipment on your
property with just one universal remote con­
trol. Most of these transmitters a re used to
operate ga rage doors and property gates. The
individual transmitters are programmed at
the front bumper. That is where the control
module is located.
The transmitters must be programmed first in
order to operate systems using the Homelink
universal remote control.
A WARNING , .,.
- Never use the Homelink transmitter
with any garage door opener that does
have not the safety stop and reverse fea­
ture as required by federal safety stand­
ards . Th is includes any garage door open ­
er model manufactured before April 1,
1982.
- A garage door opener which cannot de­
tect an object, signaling the door to stop
and reverse does not meet current feder­
al safety standards . Us ing a garage door
opener without these features increases
risk of serious injury or death.
- For safety reasons never release the
parking brake or start the engine while
anyone is standing in front of the vehicle .
- A garage door or an estate gate may sometimes be set in motion when the
H ome link 131
Homelink remote control is being pro­
grammed. If the device is repeatedly ac­
tivated, this can overstrain motor and
damage its electrical components -an
overheated motor is a fire hazard!
- To avoid possible injuries or property
damage, please always make absolutely
certa in that no persons or objects are lo­
cated in the range of motion of any
equipment being ope rated.
(D Tips

Lower anch orages
The lower anchorage attachment po ints are
located between the rea r seatback and rear
seat cushion
¢ fig . 182.
Lower anchorages secure the chi ld res train t in
the seat without using the vehicle's safety belts . Ancho rages provide a secure and easy­
to-use attachment and minimize the possibili­
ty of imp roper ch ild restra int installa tion.
All child restraints manufactured after Sep ­
tember 1, 2002 , must have lower anchorage
attachments for the
LATCH system.
Remember that the lower anchorage po ints
are o nly intended for installation and attach ­
ment of child restraints specifically certified
for use with
LATCH lower anchorages. Chi ld
rest raints that are not equipped wi th the low­
er anchorage attachments can still be insta l­
led in compliance with the child restraint
manufacturer 's instructions on us ing vehicle
safety belts .
Ln._ WARNING
-Improper use of LATCH lower anchorages
can cause serious personal injury in an ac­
cident.
- Always carefu lly follow the child re­
straints manufacturer's instructions for
proper installation of the child restraint
