Light Sensor
The light sensor for the
Twilight Sentinel is located
in the center of the front
defogger grille.
If you cover the sensor, it will read ªdarkº and the
parking lamps and low
-beam headlamps will come on.
Interior Lamps
Courtesy Lamps
To turn on the courtesy lamps, pull the exterior lamp
knob toward you. To turn the courtesy lamps off,
push the knob back in.
Instrument Panel Brightness Control
This control is located to the right of the fog lamp
button. As you turn the thumbwheel up, the instrument
panel lights will brighten.
Illuminated Entry
This system turns on the courtesy lamps (dome lamps
and door entry lamps) for about 20 seconds when any of
the following occur:
if you manually unlock your vehicle with the key,
if any door is opened,
if you press the unlock button on the remote keyless
entry transmitter, or
if the last door on your vehicle is closed.
Illuminated entry immediately ends when your vehicle's
ignition is turned to ON or START.

2-53 Power Remote Control Mirror
Move the rocker switch to
the left to choose the
driver's side mirror or
move the switch to the
right to select the
passenger's side mirror.
To adjust the mirror, push the four
-way control pad in
the direction you want the mirror to go. Adjust each
mirror so you can see the side of your vehicle and the
area behind your vehicle.
Your vehicle's ignition must be in ON (II) for this
feature to work.
Heated Rearview Mirrors
The manual folding outside rearview mirrors are heated.
To heat the mirrors, press the rear window defogger
button. See ºRear Window Defoggerº in the Index.
Manual Folding Outside Rearview Mirrors
The driver's and passenger's outside mirrors move
forward and rearward (ªbreak
-awayº) to help prevent
injury and/or damage to your vehicle.
Convex Outside Mirror
Your passenger's side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror's surface is curved so you can see more from
the driver's seat.
CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder
before changing lanes.

Your vehicle's engine should be turned off but the
ignition must be ON (II) while programming the
transmitter. Follow these steps to program up to
three channels:
1. If you have previously programmed a transmitter
channel, proceed to Step 2. Otherwise, hold down
the two outside buttons on the HomeLink transmitter
until the indicator light begins to flash rapidly
(after 20 seconds). Then release the buttons.
This procedure initializes the memory and erases any
previous settings for all three channels.
2. Decide which one of the three channels you want to
program. Hold the end of the hand
-held transmitter
about 2 to 5 inches (5 to 13 cm) away from the
surface of the HomeLink transmitter so that you can
still see the indicator light.
3. Using both hands, press the hand
-held transmitter
button and the desired button on the HomeLink
transmitter. Continue to press both buttons
through Step 4.
4. Hold down both buttons until you see the indicator
light on the HomeLink transmitter flash slowly and
then rapidly. The rapid flashing indicates that the
HomeLink transmitter has been programmed.
Release both buttons once the indicator light starts
to flash rapidly.Your Catera may be equipped with a metallic
-coated,
heat reflective windshield to help keep your vehicle
cool. If you experience difficulty when using your
remote control transmitter be sure you have followed the
directions exactly, and that you are pointing the device
through the top center of the windshield in the black
dotted area. Any usage of devices other than in this area
may cause malfunctions to occur. Also, the HomeLink
transmitter may not work with older garage door
openers that do not meet current Federal Consumer
Safety Standards. If you cannot program the transmitter
after repeated attempts, refer to ªRolling Code
Programmingº later in this section or contact the
HomeLink transmitter manufacturer at 1
-800-355-3515.
Be sure to keep the original hand
-held transmitter
in case you need to erase and reprogram the
HomeLink transmitter.
Canadian Owners: During programming, the
hand
-held transmitter may automatically stop
transmitting after one or two seconds. In this case, you
should press and re
-press the button on the hand-held
transmitter every two seconds without ever releasing the
button on the HomeLink transmitter. Release both
buttons when the indicator light on the HomeLink
transmitter begins to flash rapidly.
