Vehicles equipped with four speed automatic transaxles
may experience a downshift to 3rd gear while climbing
uphill or descending downhill. This downshift to 3rd
gear is necessary to maintain vehicle set speed.
On steep hills a greater speed loss or gain may occur so
it may be preferable to drive without speed control.
GARAGE DOOR OPENER — IF EQUIPPED
NOTE:The HomeLinksystem will be disabled if the
Vehicle Theft Alarm (if equipped) is in the Prearmed,
Armed or Alarming state. The HomeLinksystem will
only operate when the Vehicle Theft Alarm (if equipped)

The HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver replaces up to
three remote controls (hand held transmitters) that oper-
ate devices such as garage door openers, motorized

your vehicle’s battery and charging system; no batteries
are needed.
