For vehicles with automatic transmission:
On a downgrade or an upgrade, downshifting will occur
automatically to allow the engine's braking power to
maintain the set speed. When more level roadway is
reached, the transmission will automatically upshift to
fifth gear.
For vehicles with manual transmission:
The set speed control is switched off when declutching
exceeds four seconds during downshifting. In some
cases, you may have to step on the brake pedal to slow
down sufficiently to achieve the desired speed.
NOTE:On very steep hills, a greater speed loss or gain
may occur. It may be preferable to drive without speed
control.GARAGE DOOR OPENER (If Equipped)
The HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver replaces up to
three remote controls (hand-held transmitters) that oper-
ate devices such as garage door openers, motorized
gates, or home lighting. The transceiver triggers these
devices at the push of a button. The transceiver operates
off your vehicle's battery and charging system; no bat-
teries are needed.
For additional information on HomeLinkt, call 1±800±
355±3515, or on the internet at www.homelink.com.

WARNING!
A moving garage door can cause injury to people and
pets in the path of the door. People or pets could be
seriously or fatally injured. Only use this transceiver
with a garage door opener that has a ªstop and
reverseº feature, as required by federal safety stan-
dards. This includes most garage door opener models
manufactured after 1982. Do not use a garage door
opener without these safety features, as it could
cause injury or death. Call toll-free 1±800±355±3515
or, on the internet at www.homelink.com for safety
information and assistance.
Programming The Universal Transceiver
For best results, install a new battery in the hand-held
transmitter before programming. If your garage door
opener (located in the garage) is equipped with an
antenna, make sure that the antenna is hanging straight
down.
1. Turn off the engine.
WARNING!
Vehicle exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a danger-
ous gas. Do not run the vehicle's engine while
programming the transceiver. Exhaust gas can cause
serious injury or death.

NOTE:Some gate operators and garage door openers
may require you to replace this Programming Step 5 with
procedures noted in the ªGate Operator/Canadian Pro-
grammingº section.
6. The indicator light in the universal transceiver will
begin to flash, first slowly and then rapidly. Release both
buttons after the indicator light changes from slow to
rapid flash. If, after 90 seconds, the indicator does not
flash rapidly or goes out, return to Step 1 and repeat the
procedure.
7. Press and hold the just programmed universal trans-
ceiver button and observe the indicator light. If the
indicator stays on constantly, programming is complete
and your device should activate when the universal
transceiver button is pressed and released.
NOTE:To program the remaining two universal trans-
ceiver buttons, begin with Programming Step 4. Do not
repeat Steps 1, 2, and 3.If the indicator light blinks rapidly for two seconds and
then turns to a constant light, continue with Program-
ming Steps 8-10 to complete programming of a rolling
code equipped device (most commonly a garage door
opener).
8. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit)
in the garage, locate the ªlearnº or ªsmartº button. This
can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is
attached to the motor-head unit.
9. Firmly press and release the ªlearnº or ªsmartº but-
ton. (The name and color of the button may vary by
manufacturer.)
NOTE:There are 30 seconds in which to initiate Step 10.
10. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two
seconds and release the programmed universal trans-
ceiver button. Repeat the ªpress/hold/releaseº sequence
a second time, and, depending on the brand of the garage
120 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

door opener (or other rolling code equipped device),
repeat this sequence a third time to complete the pro-
gramming.
The universal transceiver should now activate your roll-
ing code equipped device.
If you do not successfully program the universal trans-
ceiver to learn the signal of your hand-held transmitter,
call toll free for customer assistance at 1-800-355-3515, or
on the internet at www.homelink.com.
Gate Operator/Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter sig-
nals to ªtime-outº (or quit) after several seconds of
transmission. This may not be long enough for the
universal transceiver to pick up the signal during pro-
gramming. Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate
operators are designed to ªtime-outº in the same manner.If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties
programming a gate operator by using the programming
procedures (regardless of where you live), replace Pro-
gramming Step 5 with the following:
NOTE:If programming a garage door opener or gate
operator, it is advised to unplug the device during the
ªcyclingº process to prevent possible overheating.
5. Continue to press and hold the universal transceiver
button while you press and release every two seconds
(ªcycleº) your hand-held transmitter until the frequency
signal has successfully been accepted by the universal
transmitter. (The indicator light will flash slowly and
then rapidly.) Proceed with Programming Step 6 to
complete.

Using the Universal Transceiver
To operate the universal transceiver, simply press and
release the programmed button. Activation will now
occur for the programmed device (i.e., garage door
opener, gate operator, security system, entry door lock,
home/office lighting, etc.) For convenience, the hand-
held transmitter of the device may also be used at any
time.
Erasing Universal Transceiver Buttons
To erase programming from the three buttons (individual
buttons cannot be erased but can be reprogrammed ± see
below), follow this procedure:
²Press and hold the two outer universal transceiver
buttons until the indicator light begins to flash after 20
seconds. Release both buttons. Do not hold for longer
than 30 seconds. The universal transceiver is now inthe program (or learning) mode and can be pro-
grammed at any time beginning with Programming
Step 4.
Reprogramming a Single Button
To program a device using a universal transceiver button
previously programmed, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired universal transceiver but-
ton. DO NOT release the button.
2. The indicator light will begin to flash after 20 seconds.
Without releasing the universal transceiver button, pro-
ceed with Programming Step 4.
Security
If you sell your vehicle, be sure to erase the frequencies.
To erase all of the previously programmed frequencies,
hold down both outside buttons until the light begins to
flash.
