Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Inadvertent Power Battery Saver
This feature is designed to protect your vehicle’s
battery against drainage from the interior lamps,
trunk lamp, glove box lamp, cigarette lighters or the
garage door opener. When the ignition is turned
off,
the power to these features will automatically turn off
after 10 minutes (three minutes if a new car has 15 miles
(24 km) or less). Power will be restored for an additional
10 minutes if any door is opened, the trunk is opened or
the courtesy lamp switch is turned on.
Storage Mode Personalization
This feature is for long term use and must be
programmed through the Driver Information Center
(DIC) while the ignition is in RUN. Storage mode
personalization protects the battery by placing your
vehicle
in a storage mode so that the radio, amplifiers,
instrument cluster and remote keyless entry will not
drain the battery over a long period of time. For
programming information, see “Programmable, Memory
and Personalization Features” later in
this section.
Mirrors
Electrochromic Daymight Rearview Mirror
When this feature is turned on, the mirror automatically
changes to reduce glare from headlamps behind you. A
photocell on the mirror senses when it is becoming dark
outside. Another photocell, built into the mirror face,
senses when headlamps are behind you.
At night, when the glare is too high, the mirror will
gradually darken to reduce glare (this change may take a
few seconds). The mirror will return to its clear daytime
state when.the glare is reduced.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Compass Variance
The mirror is set in zone eight upon leaving the factory.
It will be necessary to adjust the compass to compensate
for compass variance if
you live outside zone eight.
Under certain circumstances,
as during a long distance
cross-country trip, it will be necessary to adjust for
compass variance. Compass variance
is the difference
between earth’s magnetic north and true geographic
north.
If not adjusted to account for compass variance,
your compass could give
false readings.
To adjust for compass variance:
1. Use the COMPASS button located at the bottom of
the mirror.
2. Press and hold the COMPASS button until a zone
number appears in the display.
on the following zone map.
3. Find your current location and variance zone number 4. Press the COMPASS button on the bottom of the
mirror until the new zone number appears
in the
display. After you stop pressing the button,
the display
will show a
“C” in the direction display within a
few seconds.
(This is the automatic calibration
mode
-- you’ll need to drive in a circle to calibrate the
mirror. See “Compass Calibration” following.)

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference,
and
(2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
This device complies with
RSS-210 of Industry Canada.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation
of
the device.
Changes and modifications to this system
by other than
an authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
Programming the Transmitter
Do not use the universal transmitter with any garage
door opener that does not have the “stop and reverse”
safety feature. This includes any garage door opener
model manufactured before April
1, 1982.
Be sure that people and objects are clear of the garage
door you are programming.
Your vehicle’s engine should
be turned off 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 universal transmitter
until the amber light begins to flash rapidly
(approximately
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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine already. If the amber light on the universal transmitter
flashes rapidly for one or two seconds and then stops
flashing, the garage door opener has a rolling code
system.
In a rolling code system, the garage door
receiver must be trained to the universal transmitter.
Training a Garage Door Opener with
“Rolling Codes”
(If Equipped)
If you have not previously programmed the hand-held
transmitter to the universal transmitter, see
“Programming the Transmitter” earlier in this section. If
you have completed this programming already, you now
need to’ train the garage door opener receiver to
recognize the universal transmitter. Refer to your garage
door opener owner’s manual for the proper transmitter
training procedure for your garage door opener brand.
1. Locate the training button on the garage door opener
receiver. The exact location and color of the button
may
vary by garage door opener brand. If you have
difficulty locating the training button, refer
to your
garage door opener manual.
2. Press the training button on the garage door opener
receiver for one or
two seconds. A light indicator will
begin to flash when the receiver enters the train mode.
3. Return to the universal transmitter in your vehicle and
press the universal transmitter button you have already
programmed for
two to three seconds. Press the button
again to make sure that the universal transmitter has
been trained to the garage door opener receiver. Check that the training was successful. The receiver light
should no longer be
flashing.
The garage door opener should now recognize the
universal transmitter. You may either use the universal
transmitter or the hand-held transmitter to open the
garage door.
If after following these instructions you still have problems
training the garage door opener, consult your dealer.
Erasing Channels
To erase all three programmed channels, hold down the
two outside buttons until the red light begins to flash.
Individual channels cannot be erased, but can
be
reprogrammed using the procedure for programming the
transmitter explained earlier.
Accessories
Accessories for the universal transmitter are available
from the manufacturer of the unit. If you would like
additional information, please call
