5. To program the other buttons, repeat steps 3 and 4. Be
sure to keep your hand-held transmitters in case you
need to reprogram the universal transceiver.
NOTE:If you do not successfully program the
HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver to learn the signal of
the hand-held transmitter, refer toProgramming Mul-
tiple Security Code Systems (Rolling Code)later in
this text or call toll-free for customer assistance at
1-800-355-3515 or on the internet at
www.homelink.com.
NOTE:In Canada, D.O.C. regulations require many
hand-held transmitters to stop transmitting after two
seconds. On these hand-held transmitters, transmission
will stop even though the light on the hand-held trans-
mitter stays lit.
If you have one of these hand-held transmitters, you
should press and release the hand-held transmitter
button every two seconds without releasing the uni-
versal transceiver button.
Release both buttons when the display indicates
TRAINED.

4. When the display indicates TRAINED, and the previ-
ous programming for the button has now been erased
and a new device has been programmed to the button.
This procedure will not affect any other programmed
buttons.
Operation
To operate, simply press the desired universal transceiver
button. The display shows that the appropriate channel
signal is being transmitted and the programmed device
should operate. For convenience, the hand-held transmit-
ter of the device may also be used at any time.
NOTE:If your hand-held transmitter appears to pro-
gram the universal transceiver, but your garage door
does not open, and your opener was manufactured after
1995, your garage door opener may have a multiple
security code system (rolling code system).
Multiple Security Code Systems (Rolling Code
System)
On garage door openers with a multiple code feature
(rolling code), the garage door opener transmitter code
changes after each use to prevent the copying of your
code.
Multiple security code (rolling code) garage door
openers and other devices which arecode protected
and manufactured after 1995, may be determined by
the following:
•
Reference the device’s owner’s manual for verification.
•The hand-held transmitter appears to program the
universal transceiver but does not activate the device.
To program a garage door opener with the multiple
security code (rolling code) feature, follow these
steps (The aid of a second person may make the
following programming procedures quicker):
1. Program your hand-held transmitter to the universal
transceiver by following the procedures previously de-
scribed in this section. (If you have already completed
this programming, proceed to the next step).
2. Locate the programming button on the garage door
opener motor head unit. The exact location and color of
the button may vary by garage door opener brand. If
there is difficulty locating the programming button,
reference the garage door opener owner’s manual or
contact HomeLinkat1-800-355-3515or on the internet
atwww.homelink.com.

3. Press the programming button on the garage door
opener motor head unit (which activates the program-
ming light).
4. Firmly press and release the programmed universal
transceiver button. Press and release the universal trans-
ceiver button a second time to complete the program-
ming process. (Some garage door openers may require
you to do this procedure a third time to complete the
programming.)
Your garage door opener should now recognize your
universal transceiver. You may use either your universal
transceiver or your original hand-held transmitter to
open your garage door.
For Your Security
If you sell your vehicle, be sure to erase the frequencies.
To erase all of the previously programmed frequencies,
hold down channel one and three buttons until
CLEARED CHANNELS is displayed.
NOTE:Individual channels can not be erased. You
must erase all three channels.
What May Cause The Universal Transceiver Not
To Work
•
The universal transceiver may not have been pro-
grammed correctly. Try reprogramming.
•The batteries in the hand-held transmitter may be
weak. New batteries may be required in your hand-
held transmitter.
•Place the hand-held transmitter at a different distance
from the universal transceiver (approximately 1 to 3
inches) (approximately 3 to 8 centimeters) and repro-
gram.
•The frequency of the programmed device’s hand-held
transmitter must be between 286MHz and 399MHz,
set by FCC part 15.205. (The back side of the hand-held
transmitter may indicate its frequency.)
•If you are unable to program the universal transceiver
after repeated attempts, you may contact HomeLink
at1–800–355–3515or on the internet at

be seriously injured or killed. Always fasten your
seatbelt properly and make sure all passengers are
properly secured too.
Do not allow small children to operate the sun roof.
Never allow fingers or other body parts, or any
object to project through the sun roof opening.
Injury may result.
Wind Buffeting
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of
pressure on the ears or a helicopter type sound in the
ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof (if so equipped) in certain
open or partially open positions. This is a normal occur-
rence and can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with
the rear windows open, open the front and rear windows
together to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs
with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to
minimize the buffeting.

Tire Pressure Monitor System — If Equipped
The Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) system uses wireless
technology to monitor tire pressure levels. Sensors,
mounted to each wheel as part of the valve stem transmit
tire pressure readings to a receiver located in the over-
head console.
The tire pressure is shown in the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC) display. The TPM system
remains active even if it is not displayed in the EVIC.CAUTION!
The TPM system is designed to monitor your tire
pressure and will not function as a tire pressure
gauge while adjusting the pressure in your tires.
There will be a delay between the instant you adjust
the air pressure in a tire and when the system
updates the display.
NOTE:The TPM system can inform you about a low or
high tire pressure condition, but it does not replace
normal tire maintenance. The TPM system is not in-
tended to provide you with notification of rapid pressure
loss.
1. If any tire pressure has exceeded the low or high
pressure (refer to “Starting and Operating, Tires Sec-
tion”), the TPM system will display a message in the
EVIC and sound a chime. It will then go into the tire
pressure display screen and flash the pressure value of
the tire that is low or high. This will be displayed for the
rest of the ignition cycle, or until either the C/T, MENU,
STEP, or RESET button is pressed.
UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 89

Page 90 of 277

NOTE:This display will return 60 seconds after either
the C/T, MENU, STEP, or RESET button is pressed. If a
tire is low or high, you should correct your tire inflation
pressure as soon as possible and inspect all of your tires.
Refer to “Starting and Operating, Tires Section, Tire
Inflation Pressures” for more details. Once the low or
high tire pressure message has occurred, it will continue
to blink until the tire pressure is corrected.
2. If the spare tire pressure has exceeded the low or high
pressure allowed, the TPM system will display a message
in the EVIC for 60 seconds and sound a chime per every
ignition cycle.
NOTE:This message will return every ignition cycle,
until the tire pressures are corrected.
3. When the vehicle is moving and the EVIC cannot
receive a valid sensor signal from the tire pressure
sensors, the TIRE PRESSURE UNAVAILABLE message
will be displayed for 5 seconds along with a chime. The
display will then shift to the individual tire pressure
display screen and display dashes for the tire or tires that
are affected. Once the TIRE PRESSURE UNAVAILABLE
message has been displayed, and valid sensor signals arereceived, the EVIC will display the TIRE PRESSURE
NOW AVAILABLE message for 5 seconds along with a
chime. This is meant to inform you when the TPM system
has returned to it’s normal operation. This will occur
when valid tire pressure sensor messages have been
received from all 4 road tires. The TPM system function is
temporarily unavailable due to external electromagnetic
interference, such as electronic devices or nearby radio or
TV towers.
4. In addition to monitoring the vehicle tires, the TPM
system monitors faults within the system. When any
fault has been set, the TPM system will display TIRE
SENSOR BAD/MISSING. Be sure to inspect your tires for
proper inflation pressure. After you determine that your
tires are properly inflated, see your authorized dealer for
service to diagnose the problem with the TPM system.
5. If a road tire is replaced by the spare, the TPM system
will automatically detect that the tires have been
switched (after the ignition has been cycled) and display
SPARE SWAP DETECTED along with a chime. This
could take up to 10 minutes with vehicle speed above 25
mph (40 km/h).
