Storage Compartments
Your vehicle has a variety of storage compartments
designed to store small items.
Glove Box
To open your glove box, move the switch button toward
the passenger's side and pull the door open.
Center Overhead Console (If Equipped)
Your vehicle may have an overhead console. It has
storage compartments inside it. Your vehicle may also
have a Universal Transmitter, see ªUniversal
Transmitterº later in this section.
Installing a Garage Door Opener
If you have a garage door opener, the front overhead
compartment can be used to conveniently store
the opener.
1. To install the garage door opener, first open the
compartment door by pressing the release
button forward.
2. Peel the protective
backing from the hook
and loop patch. Press it
firmly to the back of
your garage door opener,
as close to the center of
the opener as possible.
3. Center the garage door opener activation button over
the console door button, and press the opener firmly
into place.
The pegs inside the compartment door are used to
make sure the button on the compartment door will
contact the control button on the garage door opener.

time until the PUSH
button on the closed
compartment door
operates the garage
door opener.5. Now, with the
compartment door

button marked PUSH
to make sure the
garage door opener
operates properly.
With the garage door opener positioned properly and
the right number of pegs in place, you should only
have to push the PUSH button slightly to operate
the opener.
6. Adjust the position of the garage door opener and
add or remove pegs, as needed, until the opener
operates properly.

Programming the Transmitter
Do not use the transmitter with any garage door opener
that does not have the ªstop and reverseº 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 not 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.
2. 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.

3. 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.
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 flashing 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 Transmitter
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.
Training a Garage Opener with a ªRolling
Codeº Feature
If you programmed the universal transmitter, but the
garage door will not open, and if your garage door
opener was manufactured after 1995, your garage door
may have a security feature that changes the ªcodeº of
your garage door opener every time it is opened
or closed.

To determine if your garage door opener has this
ªrolling codeº feature, press the appropriate button on
the universal transmitter that was programmed. If the
red light flashes rapidly for one to two seconds, then
turns solid, your garage door opener has this feature.
To program a garage door opener with the rolling code
feature, do the following:
1. Program your hand
-held transmitter to the universal
transmitter by following the steps provided under
ªProgramming the Transmitterº earlier in
this section.
2. Remove the cover panel from the garage door
opener receiver. It is located near the garage door
opener motor.
3. Locate the training button on the garage door opener
receiver. The exact location and color will vary
among brands.4. Press the training button on the garage door opener
receiver for one to two seconds.
5. Return to your vehicle and press the programmed
button on the universal transmitter until the red light
flashes rapidly (about two seconds).
6. Release the button, then press it again to confirm
that it was programmed to the garage door
opener receiver.
You may now use either the universal transmitter or the
hand
-held transmitter to open your garage door. If you
still have difficulty in programming and require
assistance, please call 1
-800-355-3515.
Accessories
Accessories for the universal transmitter are available
from the manufacturer of the unit. If you would like
additional information, please call 1
