Programming HomeLink®
Begin Programming
• The HomeLink®buttons are located in the
overhead console.
• Erase all channels before you begin training by holding the two outside buttons for up to
20 seconds until “CHANNELS CLEARED”
appears in the EVIC display.
• Park your vehicle outside of the garage and turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position.
• Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 in (3 to 8 cm) from the HomeLink
®buttons
while keeping the EVIC display in view. Simultaneously, press and hold both the
chosen HomeLink
®button and the hand-held transmitter button until the EVIC display
changes from “CHANNEL # TRAINING” to “CHANNEL # TRAINED.” This may take up to
30 seconds, or longer in rare cases.

ELECTRONICS

• Press and hold the just-trained HomeLink®button; if the channel has been trained,
the EVIC display will show “CHANNEL # TRANSMIT” and the device should operate.
WARNING!
• Your motorized door or gate will open and close while you are training the universal transceiver. Do not train the transceiver if people or pets are in the path of the door
or gate. Only use this transceiver with a garage door opener that has a “stop and
reverse” feature as required by Federal sa fety standards. This includes most garage
door opener models manufactured after 1982. Do not use a garage door opener
without these safety features. Call toll-free 1–800–355–3515 or, on the Internet, at
www.HomeLink.com for safety inf ormation orassistance.
• Vehicle exhaust contains Carbon Monoxide (CO), a dangerous gas. Do not run your vehicle in the garage while training the transceiver. Exhaust gas can cause serious
injury or death.
NOTE: If you are having difficulty training your HomeLink
®and your garage door was
manufactured after 1995, you may have a rolling code system. Follow the steps below for
programming a rolling code system.
Programming A Rolling Code System
• At the garage door opener motor (in the garage), locate the “learn” or “training” button. This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the
garage door opener motor (it is NOT the button normally used to open and close the
door).
• Firmly press and release the “learn” or “training” button. The name and color of the
button may vary by manufacturer. Within 30 seconds, return to the vehicle and press
the programmed HomeLink
®button twice (holding the button for two seconds each
time). If the device is plugged in and activates, programming is complete.
• If the device does not activate, press the button a third time (for two seconds) to
complete the training.
Using HomeLink®
• To operate, simply press and release the programmed HomeLink®button and the
trained device will operate.
• Refer to your Owner’s Manual on the DVD for further details. If you have any problems programming HomeLink
®, or require assistance, please cal l toll-free 1–800–355–
3515, or on the Internet, at www.HomeLink.com.

• If the message continues to appear for more than three days after tightening the gas
cap, see your authorized dealer.
Oil Change Indicator
Message
• If an “oil change” message (shown as CHAngE OIL) appears and a single chime
sounds, it is time for your next required oil change.
Resetting The Light After Servicing
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position (do not start engine).
• Fully depress the accelerator pedal three times within 10 seconds.
• Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position.
IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS
• In any of the following situations, you c an reduce the potential for overheating by
taking the appropriate action.
• On the highways — slow down.
• In city traffic — while stopped, shift tran smission intoNEUTRAL, but do not increase
engine idle speed.
NOTE: There are steps that you can take to slow down an impending overheat
condition:
• If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off. The A/C system adds heat to the engine cooling system and turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.
• You can also turn the Temperature Control to maximum heat, the Mode Control to floor and the Fan Control to high. This allows the heater core to act as a supplement to the
radiator and aids in removing heat from the engine cooling system.
• If the temperature reading does not re turn to normal, turn the engine off immediately.
• We recommend that you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have the vehicle serviced immediately.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could dama ge your vehicle. If the temperature gauge
reads HOT (H), pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner
turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range. If the pointer remains on
HOT (H), and you hear continuous chimes, t urn the engine off immediately and call for
service.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
42

• Secure the tire, jack (base of jack faces rear of vehicle), and tools in their proper
locations.
TIREFIT Instructions
TIREFIT will temporarily seal small punctures up to14in.(6 mm) in the tire tread allowing
you to drive your vehicle up to 100 mi (160 km) with a maximum speed of 55 mph
(88 km/hr). TIREFIT can be used in outside temperatures down to approximately -4°F
(-20°C).
NOTE: Do not remove foreign objects (e.g., screws or nails) from the tire.
The TIREFIT kit is located in the trunk.
• Verify that the valve stem is close to the ground.
• Put on the gloves from the TIREFIT Kit Accessory Storage Compartment.
• Turn the Mode Select knob to the Sealant Mode position
.
• Remove the Yellow Cap from the fitting at the end of the Clear Sealant Hose.
• Remove the valve stem cap and screw the fitting at the end of the Clear Sealant Hose onto the valve stem.
• Insert the Power Plug into the vehicle’s 12-volt power outlet.
• Start the engine and then press the Power button
. The sealant (white fluid) will
flow from the Sealant Bottle through the Clear Sealant Hose and into the tire.
NOTE:
• Sealant may leak out through the puncture in the tire.
• If the sealant (white fluid) does not flow withi n0–10secondsthrough the Clear
Sealant Hose: • Press the Power button
to turn OFF the TIREFIT kit.
• Disconnect the Clear Sealant Hose and make sure the valve stem is free of debris.
• Repeat previous steps to verify sealant will flow, making sure the Mode Select knob is in Sealant Mode
.
• Continue to operate the pump until seal ant is no longer flowing through the hose
(typically takes 30 - 70 seconds). As the sealant flows through the Clear Sealant Hose,
the pressure gauge can read as high as 70 psi. The pressure gauge will decrease
quickly from approximately 70 psi to the actual tire pressure when the sealant bottle is
empty.
• The pump will start to inject air into the tire immediately after the sealant bottle is
empty. Continue to operate the pump and inflate the tire to the pressure indicated on
the Tire and Loading Information label on the driver's side door opening. Check the
tire pressure by looking at the pressure gauge.
NOTE: If the tire does not inflate to at least 26 psi pressure within 15 minutes, the tire is
too badly damaged. Do not attempt to drive the vehicle further. Call for assistance.
• If the tire inflates to the recommended pressure or is at least 26 psi pressure within 15 minutes, press the Power button
to turn off the TIREFIT kit.
