Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Synchronization
Synchronization may be necessary due to the security
method used by this system. The transmitter does not
send the same signal twice to the receiver.
The receiver
will not respond to a signal it has been sent previously.
This will prevent anyone from recording and playing
back the signal from the transmitter.
To resynchronize your transmitter, stand close to your
vehicle and simultaneously press and hold the
LOCK
and UNLOCK buttons on the transmitter for eight
seconds. The door locks should cycle
to confirm
synchronization.
If the locks do not cycle, see your
dealer for service.
Sliding Door
To open the sliding side door, pull the handle toward the
back and slide the door to
the rear until it latches in the
open position.
To close the sliding slide door, pull the handle toward
the front
to release the rear latch, and slide the
door forward.

the temperature indicated will be the last outside
temperature recorded with the ignition on.
If the outside temperature
is 37°F (3°C) or lower when
you turn on the ignition, ICE will appear on the display.
This
is a warning to the driver that road conditions may
be icy, and that appropriate precautions should be taken.
The compass is self-calibrating,
so it does not need to be
manually set. However, when your vehicle
is new, the
compass may function erratically. If it does, CAL
(Calibration) will appear on the display. To correct the
problem, drive slowly in a complete
360" circle three
times, and
the compass will function normally.
Variance is the difference between magnetic north and
geographic north. In some areas, the difference between
the two can be great enough to cause false compass
readings. If this happens, follow these instructions
to set

Programming the Transmitter
Do not use the transmitter with any garage door opener
that does
not have the “stop and reverse” 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 universal
channel, proceed to Step
2. Otherwise, hold down
the two outside buttons on the universal transmitter
until
the red 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.

Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter against the
bottom surface of the universal transmitter so that
you can still see the red light.
Decide which one
of the three channels you want to
program. Using both hands, press the hand-held
transmitter button and the desired button on
the
universal transmitter. Continue to hold both buttons
through Step
4.
Hold down both buttons until you see the red light
on the universal transmitter flash 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
GM dealer. Be sure
to keep the original hand-held transmitter
in case you need
to erase and reprogram the
universal transmitter.
Operating the Tran I -:--. - r
Press and hold the appropriate button on the universal
transmitter. The red light comes
on while the signal is
being transmitted.
Note that the effective transmission range of the
universal transmitter may differ from the hand-held
transmitter and from one channel to another.
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.

Speed-Compensated-Volume (SCV). With SCV,
your audio system adjusts automatically
to make up for
road and wind noise as you drive. Set
the volume at the
desired level. Move the control ring behind the upper
knob to the right to adjust the SCV. Then, as you drive,
SCV automatically increases the volume, as necessary,
to overcome noise
at any particular speed. The volume
level should always sound the same
to you as you drive.
If
you don’t want to use SCV, turn the control all the
way down. Each notch
on the control ring allows for
more volume compensation at faster vehicle speeds.
