WARNING!
Even if the display still reads a few degrees above
32°F (0°C), the road surface may be icy, particularly
in woods or on bridges. Drive carefully under such
conditions to prevent an accident and possible per-
sonal injury or property damage.
Step Button
Press the STEP button to cycle through all of the displays.
The displays are: Average Miles/GAL, Miles To Empty,

(MPG), or liters per 100 km (L/100 km) since the last
reset. Miles To Empty
Shows the estimated distance that can be traveled before
the fuel gauge shows E (Empty). The distance is calcu-
lated by multiplying the amount of fuel remaining by the
projected fuel economy. The distance predicted will
change every few seconds to a higher or lower number as
these factors change. This display cannot be reset.
Trip Miles
Shows the distance traveled since the last reset.
Time Elapsed
Shows the accumulated ignition ON time since the last
reset.
Miles To Service

the spare tire. The tire location will blink when under
pressure.
Blank Screen
Shows a blank screen. Pressing the C/T button returns to
the Compass and Temperature display. Pressing the STEP
button returns you to the Average Miles per Gallon
display.
Automatic Compass Calibration
This compass is self-calibrating which eliminates the
need to manually set the compass. When the vehicle is
new, the compass may appear erratic and the CAL
symbol will be displayed.
After completing three 360 degree turns in an area free
from large metal or metallic objects, the CAL symbol will
turn off and the compass will function normally.
Manual Compass Calibration
If the compass appears erratic and the CAL symbol does
not appear, you must manually put the compass into the
“Calibration” mode.
To Put Into a Calibration Mode
Turn on the ignition and set the display to “Compass/
Temperature.” Press and hold the RESET button (more
than 10 seconds) to change the display between VARI-
ANCE (compass variance) and CAL (compass calibra-
tion) modes. When the CAL symbol is displayed com-
plete three 360 degree turns in an area free from large
metal objects or power lines. The CAL symbol will turn
off and the compass will function normally.

Compass Varianceis the difference between magnetic
north and geographic north. In some areas of the country,
the difference between magnetic and geographic north is
great enough to cause the compass to give false readings.
If this occurs, the compass variance must be set according
to the Compass Variance Map.
144 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

To set the variance: Turn the ignition ON and set the
display to “Compass/Temperature.” Press and hold the
RESET button five seconds (no more than 10 seconds).
The last variance zone number will be displayed. Press
the STEP button to select the new variance zone and
press the RESET button to resume normal operation.

WARNING!
Before programming HomeLink to a garage door
opener or gate operator, make sure that people and
objects are out of the way of the device to prevent
potential harm or damage. When programming a
garage door opener, it is advised to park outside of
the garage. Do not use HomeLink with any garage
door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse fea-
tures as required by U.S. federal safety standards
(this includes any garage door opener model manu-
factured before April 1, 1982). A garage door that
cannot detect an object - signaling the door to stop
and reverse - does not meet current U.S. federal
safety standards. For more information, contact
HomeLink at: www.homelink.com or by calling:
1-800-355-3515.
Retain the original transmitter of the RF device you are
programming for use in other vehicles as well as for
future HomeLink programming. It is also suggested that
upon the sale of the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink
buttons be erased for security purposes. To erase the
programmed buttons, perform the procedure shown
below under When Your Vehicle Is New , or, for assis-
tance, contact HomeLink at: www.homelink.comor by
calling: 1-800-355-3515 .
When Your Vehicle Is New
Prior to programming HomeLink for the first time the
factory test codes must be erased. To erase HomeLink
memory, press and hold the two outer HomeLink buttons
(buttons one and three). The message CLEARING
CHANNELS will appear on the HomeLink display. After
approximately 20 seconds, the message CHANNELS
CLEARED will appear on the EVIC display. Do not hold
the buttons for longer than 30 seconds.

WARNING!
Vehicle exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a danger-
ous gas. Do not run the vehicle’s engine while
programming HomeLink. Exhaust gas can cause se-
rious injury or death.
WARNING!
Your motorized door or gate will open and close
while you are programming HomeLink. Do not
program HomeLink if people or pets are in the path
of the door or gate. A moving door or gate can cause
serious injury or death to people and pets or damage
to objects.
Programming HomeLink
NOTE: It is recommended that a new battery be placed
in the hand-held transmitter of the device being pro-
grammed to HomeLink for quicker training and accurate
transmission of the radio frequency signal.
1. Position the end of your hand-held transmitter 1-3
inches (5-14 cm) away from the lower left corner of the
EVIC display while keeping the display in view.
NOTE: Some gate operators and garage door openers
may require you to replace the next step with procedures
noted in the Gate Operator/Canadian Programming 
section.

steps five through seven below to complete the program-
ming of a rolling code equipped device (most commonly
a garage door opener).
5. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit)
in the garage, locate the learnorsmart button. This
can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is
attached to the motor-head unit.
6. Firmly press and release the learnorsmart button.
(The name and color of the button may vary by manu-
facturer.)
NOTE: There are 30 seconds in which to initiate the next
step.
7. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two
seconds and release the programmed HomeLink button.
Repeat the press/hold/release sequence a second time,
and, depending on the brand of the garage door opener (or other rolling code equipped device), repeat this
sequence a third time to complete the programming
process.

equipped device.
NOTE:
To program the remaining two HomeLink but-
tons, simply repeat the Programming Homelink pro-
cess.
If, after programming the HomeLink Wireless Control
System, the hand-held transmitter and/or other
HomeLink units in other vehicles fail to activate the
rolling code equipped device, you may need to clear (or
 erase) the device’s receiver memory. Refer to your
garage door opener’s Owner’s Manual for the proce-
dure or contact HomeLink at 1-800-355-3515 or on the
Internet at www.homelink.com. After clearing the re-
ceiver, you must reprogram the original hand-held
transmitter(s) to the receiver using the procedure in the
UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 149

garage door opener’s Owner’s Manual. Finally, repro-
gram the hand-held transmitter(s) to HomeLink using
the steps under Programming HomeLink .
Gate Operator/Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter sig-
nals 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-outin the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties
programming a gate operator by using the Program-
ming HomeLink procedures (regardless of where you
live), replace step two with the following:
NOTE: If programming a garage door opener or gate
operator, it is advised to unplug the device during the
 cycling process to prevent possible overheating. Press and hold the HomeLink button while you press
and release - every two seconds (
cycle) your hand-held
transmitter button until the radio signal has success-
fully been accepted by HomeLink. (The message
TRAINED will appear on the HomeLink display.)
Proceed with the remaining steps under Programming
HomeLink to complete.
Using HomeLink
To operate, simply press and release the programmed
HomeLink button. Activation will now occur for the
trained device (i.e. garage door opener, gate operator,
security system, entry door lock, home/office lighting,
etc.). For convenience, the hand-held transmitter of the
device may also be used at any time. In the event that
there are still programming difficulties or questions,
contact HomeLink at: www.homelink.comor1-800-355-
3515 .
