Do not press the buttons on the remote control vehicle key unless you actually want to use the
function in question. Since terrain and conditions vary, pressing a button on the remote control vehicle
key when it is not necessary may unlock the vehicle or set off the panic alarm, even if you think you
are out of range.
Remote control vehicle key functions can be temporarily disrupted by interference from transmit-
ters near the vehicle that use the same frequency range (such as radio equipment or cellular phones).
Things between the remote control vehicle key and vehicle, bad weather, as well as a weak
battery can reduce the operating range.
If the remote control vehicle key buttons 47 or the power locking buttons 48 are pushed re-
peatedly in quick succession, the power locking system is switched off for a brief period to help keep it
from being overloaded. The vehicle is then unlocked for about 30 seconds. Unless a door or the
luggage compartment lid is opened in this span of time, the vehicle is automatically locked afterwards.

WARNING
Improper use of the HomeLink® Universal Transmitter can cause serious or even fatal
personal injury.
x Garage doors operate with enough force to cause serious personal injury.
x Never let anyone get in the way of a garage door when it is opening or closing.
x When programming the HomeLink® Universal Transmitter, you may be operating a garage
door or estate gate. Always make sure that people and objects are out of the way to help
prevent serious personal injury or property damage.
x When operating the “training” button on a garage door opener with a rolling code, you will
need to stand on a ladder or step-stool. Always take extra precautions to prevent falls and
serious injury.
x Never use the HomeLink® Universal Transmitter with any garage door opener that does
not have the safety stop-and-reverse feature, as required by federal safety standards. This
includes any garage door opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982.
x A garage door opener that cannot detect an object, signaling the door to stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal safety standards. Using a garage door opener without these
features increases the risk of serious injury or death.
x Follow the installation manual and the included safety information from the manufacturer
when using the remote-controlled garage door opener or electrical drive.
