Programming Universal Home
Remote — Rolling Code If you have questions or need help programming the
Universal Home Remote System, call 1-866-572-2728 or
go to www.learcar2u.com.
Most garage door openers sold after 1996 are Rolling
Code units.
Programming a garage door opener involves
time-sensitive actions, so read the entire procedure
before you begin. If you do not follow these actions, the
device will time out and you will have to repeat the
procedure.
To program up to three devices:
1. From inside the vehicle, press the two outside
buttons at the same time for one to two seconds,
and immediately release them. 2. Locate in the garage, the garage door opener
receiver (motor-head unit). Locate the “Learn”
or “Smart” button. It can usually be found where the
hanging antenna wire is attached to the motor-head
unit and may be a colored button. Press this
button. After you press this button, you will have
30 seconds to complete the following steps.
3. Immediately return to your vehicle. Press and hold
the Universal Home Remote button that you would
like to use to control the garage door until the
garage door moves. The indicator light, above the
selected button, should slowly blink. You may
need to hold the button from ve to 20 seconds.
2-55

5. After entering all of the switch positions, again,
rmly press and release all three buttons at the
same time. The indicator lights will turn on.
6. Press and hold the button you would like to use to
control the garage door until the garage door
moves. The indicator light above the selected button
should slowly blink. You may need to hold the
button from ve to 55 seconds.
7. Immediately release the button when the garage
door moves. The indicator light will blink rapidly
until programming is complete.
8. Press and release the same button again. The
garage door should move, conrming that
programming is successful and complete.
To program another Fixed Code device such as an
additional garage door opener, a security device,
or home automation device, repeat Steps 1-8, choosing
a different button in Step 6 than what you used for
the garage door opener.
Using Universal Home Remote Press and hold the appropriate button for at least half of
a second. The indicator light will come on while the
signal is being transmitted. Reprogramming Universal Home
Remote Buttons You can reprogram any of the three buttons by repeating
the instructions.
Erasing Universal Home Remote
Buttons You should erase the programmed buttons when you
sell or terminate your lease.
To erase either Rolling Code or Fixed Code on the
Universal Home Remote device:
1. Press and hold the two outside buttons at the same
time for approximately 20 seconds, until the
indicator lights, located directly above the buttons,
begin to blink rapidly.
2. Once the indicator lights begin to blink, release both
buttons. The codes from all buttons will be erased.

Playing an MP3 CD-R Disc Radios with the MP3 feature are capable of playing an
MP3 CD-R disc. For more information on how to
play an MP3 CD-R disc, see Using an MP3 on
page 3-90 later in this section.
CD Messages If the CD comes out, it could be for one of the following
reasons:
It is very hot. When the temperature returns to
normal, the CD should play.
You are driving on a very rough road. When the
road becomes smoother, the CD should play.
The CD is dirty, scratched, wet, or upside down.
The air is very humid. If so, wait about an hour and
try again.
The format of the CD might not be compatible. See
Using an MP3 on page 3-90 later in this section.
There could have been a problem while burning
the CD.
The label could be caught in the CD player.
If any error occurs repeatedly or if an error cannot be
corrected, contact your dealer/retailer. If the radio
displays an error message, write it down and provide it
to your dealer/retailer when reporting the problem. Using the DVD Player Insert a disc partway into the slot, label side up. The
player pulls it in. If the ignition and the radio are on, the
CD or DVD begins playing. A DVD can be loaded
with the radio off, but it does not start playing until the
radio is on, and sourced to DVD. The DVD player
can be controlled by the buttons on the radio, the RSA
(Rear Seat Audio) system, and the remote control, if
your vehicle has this feature. See the Rear Seat
Entertainment (RSE) System on page 3-95 for more
information. A DVD icon displays whenever a disc
is loaded. The DVD player can also be run for
passengers in the rear seat with the radio off. The rear
seat passenger can power on the video screen and
use the remote control to navigate the disc. See Rear
Seat Entertainment (RSE) System on page 3-95 for
more information.
The DVD player is capable of playing both DVD video
and DVD audio discs. This DVD player includes Dolby ®
Digital Decoding*, and DTS ®
Decoding**, so discs
can be played that were recorded using these
technologies.

Navigation/Radio System Your vehicle may have a navigation radio system.
The navigation system has built-in features intended to
minimize driver distraction. Technology alone, no
matter how advanced, can never replace your own
judgment. See the Navigation System manual for some
tips to help you reduce distractions while driving.
Rear Seat Entertainment (RSE)
System Your vehicle may have a DVD Rear Seat Entertainment
(RSE) system. The RSE system works with the
vehicle’s audio system. The DVD player is part of the
front radio. The RSE system includes a radio with a DVD
player, a video display screen, and if your vehicle has
a third row seat, it could have a second video display
screen, audio/video jacks, two wireless headphones,
and a remote control. See Radio(s) on page 3-72
for more information on the vehicle’s audio/DVD system. Driver Control of the Audio System The driver has basic control of the whole audio system.
Press and hold the
O (power) knob for more than
two seconds to turn off the radio, RSE (rear seat
entertainment), and the RSA (rear seat audio). See
Radio(s) on page 3-72 for more information.
If your vehicle has the navigation system, see the
Navigation System manual for more information.
Before You Drive The RSE is designed for rear seat passengers only.
The driver cannot safely view the video screen
while driving and should not try to do so.
In severe or extreme weather conditions the RSE
system might not work until the temperature is within
the operating range. The operating range for the
RSE system is above − 4°F ( − 20°C) or below
140°F (60°C). If the temperature of your vehicle is
outside of this range, heat or cool the vehicle until the
temperature is within the operating range of the
RSE system.

To use the auxiliary inputs of the RSE system, connect an
external auxiliary device to the color-coded A/V jacks and
turn both the auxiliary device and the video screen power
on. If the video screen is in the DVD player mode,
pressing the AUX (auxiliary) button on the remote control
switches the video screen from the DVD player mode to
the auxiliary device. The radio plays the audio of the
connected auxiliary device by sourcing to auxiliary. See
Radio(s) on page 3-72 for more information.
For optimal sound quality, increase the portable audio
device’s volume to the loudest level. Higher levels
of volume decreases audio distortion.
It is always best to power your portable audio device
through its own battery while playing.
How to Change the RSE Video Screen
Settings The screen display mode (normal, full, and zoom),
screen brightness, and setup menu language can be
changed from the on screen setup menu. To change any

audio system, if your vehicle has this feature.
The RSE system always transmits the audio signal to
the wireless headphones, if there is audio available. See
“Headphones” earlier in this section for more
information.
The DVD player is capable of outputting audio to the
wired headphone jacks on the RSA system, if your
vehicle has this feature. The DVD player can be
selected as an audio source on the RSA system. See
Rear Seat Audio (RSA) on page 3-104 for more
information.
When a device is connected to the radio’s auxiliary
input jack, if your vehicle has this feature, or A/V jacks,
the rear seat passengers are be able to hear audio
from the auxiliary device through the wireless or wired
headphones. The front seat passengers are able to
listen to playback from this device through the vehicle
speakers by selecting AUX as the source on the radio.

Video Screen The video screen is located in the overhead console.
To use the video screen, do the following:
1. Push the release button located on the overhead
console.
2. Move the screen to the desired position.
When the video screen is not in use, push it up into its
locked position.
If a DVD is playing and the screen is raised to its locked
position, the screen remains on, this is normal, and
the DVD continues to play through the previous audio
source. Use the remote control power button or eject the
disc to turn off the screen.
The overhead console contains the IR transmitters for
the wireless headphones and the IR receivers for
the remote control. They are located at the rear of the
console.
Notice: Avoid directly touching the video screen,
as damage may occur. See “Cleaning the Video
Screen” later in this section for more information. Remote Control To use the remote control, aim it at the transmitter
window at the rear of the overhead console and press
the desired button. Direct sunlight or very bright light can
affect the ability of the RSE transmitter to receive
signals from the remote control. If the remote control
does not seem to be working, the batteries may need to
be replaced. See “Battery Replacement” later in this
section. Objects blocking the line of sight can also affect
the function of the remote control.
If a CD or DVD is in the Radio DVD slot, the remote
control power button can be used to turn on the video
screen display and start the disc. The radio can also
turn on the video screen display. See Radio(s) on
page 3-72 for more information.
Notice: Storing the remote control in a hot area or
in direct sunlight can damage it, and the repairs
will not be covered by your warranty. Storage
in extreme cold can weaken the batteries. Keep the
remote control stored in a cool, dry place.
If the remote control becomes lost or damaged, a new
universal remote control can be purchased. If this
happens, make sure the universal remote control uses a
code set of Toshiba ®
.
