If your vehicle is equipped with memory mirrors, it will
also be equipped with the curbview assist
mirror feature.
This feature
will cause the passenger mirror to tip when
the vehicle is in REVERSE (R). This feature is
especially useful in allowing you to view the curb when
you are parallel parking. If further adjustment is needed
after the mirror
is tipped, the mirror switch may be used
to adjust the mirror. If the mirror switch
is pressed while
the passenger mirror is tipped, the mirror will move in
that direction, but will return to its original position once
the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE (R).
Once the shift lever is shifted out of REVERSE (R) and
a five second delay has occurred, the passenger side
mirror will return to its original position.
To program the feature, see “Curbview Assist Mirror” in
the Index.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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.
Turn the ignition
off while programming the transmitter.
Follow these steps to program up to three channels:
1.
2.
3.
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 light on the transmitter 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.
Decide which one of the three channels you want
to program.
Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter against the
front surface of the universal transmitter
so that you
can still see the amber light.
4. Using both hands, press the hand-held transmitter
button and the desired button on the universal
transmitter. Continue to press both buttons through Step
5.
5. Hold down both buttons until you see the light on
the universal transmitter flash slowly and then
rapidly. The rapid flashing, which could take up to
90 seconds, indicates that the universal transmitter
has been programmed. Release both buttons once the
light starts to flash rapidly.
If you have trouble programming the universal
transmitter, make sure that you have followed the
directions exactly as described and that the battery in the
hand-held transmitter is not dead.
If you still cannot
program it, rotate the hand-held transmitter end over end
and
try again. The universal 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, consult
your dealer.

“Rolling Codes”
(If Equipped)
If you have not previously programmed the hand-held
transmitter to the universal transmitter, see
“Programming the Transmitter” in the Index. If you
have completed this programming,
you 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.
2.
3. 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.
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.
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 train 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 Chan--
To erase all three programmed channels, hold down the
two outside buttons until the red light begins to flash.
