Universal Remote System
Programming
If equipped, these buttons are in the
driver sun visor.
This system can replace up to three
remote control transmitters used to
activate devices such as garage
door openers, security systems, and
home automation devices. These
instructions refer to a garage door
opener, but can be used for other
devices.
Do not use the Universal Remote
system 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.
Read these instructions completely
before programming the Universal
Remote system. It may help to have
another person assist with the
programming process.
Keep the original hand-held
transmitter for use in other vehicles
as well as for future programming.
Erase the programming when
vehicle ownership is terminated. See
“Erasing Universal Remote
System Buttons” later in this
section.
To program a garage door opener,
park outside directly in line with and
facing the garage door opener
receiver. Clear all people and
objects near the garage door.
Make sure the hand-held transmitter
has a new battery for quick and
accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency signal.
Programming the Universal
Remote System
For questions or programming help,
see www.homelink.com/gm or call
1-800-355-3515. For calls placed
outside the U.S., Canada, or Puerto
Rico, international rates will apply
and may differ based on landline or
mobile phone.
Programming involves
time-sensitive actions, and may time
out causing the procedure to be
repeated.

11374030) - 2018 - CRC - 11/8/17
134 Instruments and Controls
To program up to three devices:1. Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter about 3 to 8 cm
(1 to 3 in) away from the
Universal Remote system
buttons with the indicator light
in view. The hand-held
transmitter was supplied by the
manufacturer of the garage
door opener receiver.
2. At the same time, press and hold both the hand-held
transmitter button and one of
the three Universal Remote
system buttons to be used to
operate the garage door. Do
not release either button until
the indicator light changes from
a slow to a rapid flash. Then
release both buttons.
Some garage door openers
may require substitution of
Step 2 with the procedure
under “Radio Signals for Some
Gate Operators” later in this
section. 3. Press and hold the newly
programmed Universal Remote
system button for five seconds
while watching the indicator
light and garage door
activation.
.If the indicator light stays on
continuously or the garage
door moves when the
button is pressed, then
programming is complete.
There is no need to
complete Steps 4–6.
. If the indicator light does
not come on or the garage
door does not move, a
second button press may
be required. For a second
time, press and hold the
newly programmed button
for five seconds. If the light
stays on or the garage door
moves, programming is
complete.
. If the indicator light blinks
rapidly for two seconds,
then changes to a solid light and the garage door does
not move, continue with
programming Steps 4–6.
Learn or Smart Button
4. After completing Steps 1–3, locate the Learn or Smart
button inside the garage on the
garage door opener receiver.
The name and color of the
button may vary by
manufacturer.
5. Press and release the Learn or Smart button. Step 6 must be
completed within 30 seconds of
pressing this button.
6. Inside the vehicle, press and hold the newly programmed
Universal Remote system
button for two seconds and

then release it. If the garage
door does not move or the
lamp on the garage door
opener receiver does not flash,
press and hold the same
button a second time for
two seconds, then release it.
Again, if the door does not
move or the garage door lamp
does not flash, press and hold
the same button a third time for
two seconds, then release it.
The Universal Remote system
should now activate the
garage door.
Repeat the process to program the
two remaining buttons.
Radio Signals for Some Gate
Operators
For questions or programming help,
see www.homelink.com/gm or call
1-800-355-3515. For calls placed
outside the U.S., Canada, or Puerto
Rico, international rates will apply
and may differ based on landline or
mobile phone. Some gate operators and
radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to time out or quit
after several seconds of
transmission. This may not be long
enough for the Universal Remote
system to pick up the signal during
programming.
If the programming did not work,
replace Step 2 under
“Programming
the Universal Remote System” with
the following:
Press and hold the Universal
Remote system button while
pressing and releasing the
hand-held transmitter button every
two seconds until the signal has
been successfully accepted by the
Universal Remote system. The
Universal Remote system indicator
light will flash slowly at first and then
rapidly. Proceed with Step 3 under
“Programming the Universal Remote
System” to complete.
Universal Remote System
Operation
Using the Universal Remote
System
Press and hold the appropriate
Universal Remote system button for
at least one-half second. The
indicator light will come on while the
signal is being transmitted.
Erasing Universal Remote
System Buttons
Erase all programmed buttons when
vehicle ownership is terminated.
To erase:
1. Press and hold the two outside buttons until the indicator light
begins to flash. This should
take about 10 seconds.
2. Release both buttons.

Headlamp High/
Low-Beam Changer
Push the turn signal lever away
from you and release to turn the
high beams on. To return to low
beams, push the lever again or pull
it toward you and release.
This indicator light turns on in the
instrument cluster when the
high-beam headlamps are on.
Flash-to-Pass
To use the flash-to-pass feature,
briefly pull the turn signal lever
toward you. The high-beam
indicator flashes to indicate to the
other driver that you intend to pass.
Daytime Running
Lamps (DRL)
DRL can make it easier for others to
see the front of your vehicle during
the day. DRL are required on all
vehicles first sold in Canada.
The DRL system makes the
dedicated lamps come on when the
following conditions are met:
.It is still daylight and the ignition
is on.
. The exterior lamp control is in
the AUTO position.
. The transmission is not in
P (Park) or the parking brake
is off.
When DRL are on, only the front
lamps will be on. The parking
lamps, taillamps, instrument panel
lights, or other exterior lamps will
not be on when the DRL are
being used.
When it is dark enough outside, the
front lamps dim to parking lamps
and the normal low-beam
headlamps turn on. When it is bright enough outside,
the regular lamps go off, and the
front DRL will take over. If the
vehicle is started in a dark garage,
the automatic headlamp system
comes on immediately. Once the
vehicle leaves the garage, it takes
approximately one minute for the
automatic headlamp system to
change to DRL if it is light outside.
During that delay, the instrument
cluster may not be as bright as
usual. Make sure the instrument
panel brightness knob is in the full
bright position. See
Instrument
Panel Illumination Control 0141.
If it is dark enough outside and the
exterior lamp control is off, a Driver
Information Center (DIC) message
may display.
Turning the exterior lamp control to
off a second time, or turning on the
headlamps will remove the DIC
message. If the parking lamps were
turned on instead, the DIC message
will continue to be displayed.
The regular headlamp system
should be turned on when needed.

To turn off the DRL, turn the exterior
lamp control to
Oor shift into
P (Park). The DRL will stay off until
the control is toggled again or the
transmission is shifted out of
P (Park).
For vehicles first sold in Canada,
the DRL can only be turned off
when the vehicle is parked.
Automatic Headlamp
System
When the exterior lamp control is
set to AUTO and it is dark enough
outside, the headlamps and parking
lamps come on automatically.
There is a light sensor on top of the
instrument panel. Do not cover the
sensor, otherwise the headlamps
will come on when they are not
needed.
The system may also turn on the
headlamps and parking lamps when
driving through a parking garage or
tunnel.
If the vehicle is started in a dark
garage, the automatic headlamp
system comes on immediately. If it
is light outside when the vehicle
leaves the garage, there is a slight
delay before the automatic
headlamp system changes to the
DRL. During that delay, the
instrument cluster may not be as
bright as usual. Make sure the
instrument panel brightness control
is in the full bright position. See
Instrument Panel Illumination
Control 0141.
When it is bright enough outside,
the headlamps and parking lamps
will turn off or may change to
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL). The automatic headlamp system
turns off when the exterior lamp
control is turned to
Oor the ignition
is off.
To turn automatic headlamp system
back on, turn the band to
Oagain,
then release it.
If the automatic headlamp system
has the headlamps turned on and
you turn the ignition off, the
headlamps will turn off. When the
driver door is opened the
headlamps and parking lamps will
illuminate for a period of time.
The length of the delayed
illumination period can be changed.
See “Exit Lighting” underVehicle
Personalization 0126.
The regular headlamp system
should be turned on when needed.
Lights On with Wipers
If the windshield wipers are
activated in daylight with the engine
on and the exterior lamp control is in
AUTO, the headlamps, parking
lamps, and other exterior lamps will
come on. The time it takes for the
