accessible to children, and do not leave the
ignition of a vehicle equipped with the
Keyless Entry System in the ACC or
ON/RUN mode. Occupants, particularly
unattended children, can become
entrapped by the windows while operating
the power window switches. Such
entrapment may result in serious injury or
death.

HOMELINK — IF
EQUIPPED
General Information
The HomeLink system replaces up to
three hand-held transmitters with a
single built-in component in the
auto-dimming mirror. Pressing the
HomeLink button on the auto-dimming
mirror activates garage doors, gates
and other devices surrounding your
home.
Note: HomeLink and HomeLink house
icon are registered trademarks of
Gentex Corporation.
Warning!
Vehicle exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, a dangerous gas. Do not run
your vehicle in the garage while
programming the transceiver. Exhaust gas
can cause serious injury or death.
Your motorized door or gate will open
and close while you are programming the
universal transceiver. Do not program the
transceiver if people, pets or other objects
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 safety
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 HomeLink.com for safety information or
assistance.
Pre-Programming The
System
Note:It is recommended that a new
battery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being
programmed to HomeLink for quicker
training and accurate transmission of
the radio-frequency signal.
Proceed as follows:
1. Verify that there is a remote control
transmitter available for the device you
would like to program.
2. Disconnect the power to the device.
Programming The
System
Note: When programming a garage
door opener or a gate, disconnect the
power to these devices before
performing programming. Continuous
operation of the devices could damage
the motor. The HomeLink system provides three
buttons which can be individually
selected and programmed using the
transmitters for current, on-market
devices as follows:
1. Disconnect power to the device
being programmed.
2. Position the end of your handheld
transmitter one to three inches (2.5 -
7.5 cm ) away from the HomeLink
button you wish to program while
keeping the indicator light in view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold both
the chosen HomeLink and hand-held
transmitter buttons.
Do not release
the buttons until step four has been
completed 4. After the HomeLink indicator light
changes from a slow to a rapidly
blinking light, release both the
HomeLink and hand-held transmitter
buttons.
5. Connect power to the device being
programmed.
6. Firmly press and hold the
programmed HomeLink button for five
seconds, and then release it. Perform
this operation two times to activate the
door or gate. If the door or gate does
not activate, press and hold the
just-trained HomeLink button and
observe the indicator light. If the
indicator light stays on constantly,
programming is complete and your
device should activate when the
HomeLink button is pressed and
released;
Note:
To program the remaining two
HomeLink buttons, begin with
“Programming” - step one.
7. If the indicator light blinks rapidly for
two seconds and then turns to a
constant light, continue with
“Programming” steps (see below) to
complete the 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 “learn” or “smart” button. This can
usually be found where the hanging
antenna wire is attached to the
motorhead unit.
9. Firmly press and release the “learn”
or “smart” button (the name and color
of the button may vary by
manufacturer).
Note:Complete the programming
within 30 seconds.
10. Return to the vehicle and firmly
press, hold for two seconds and
release the programmed HomeLink
button. Repeat the “ press/hold/
release” sequence a second time, and,
depending on the brand of the garage
door opener (or other rolling code
equipped device), repeat this sequence
a third time to complete the
programming process. HomeLink
should now activate your rolling code
equipped device.
Note:
To program the remaining two
HomeLink buttons, begin with
“Programming” - step one.
For questions or comments,
please contact HomeLink at
www.homelink.com or
1-800-355-3515 .Gate Operator/Canadian
Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)
after several seconds of transmission -
which may not be long enough for
HomeLink to pick up the signal during
programming.
Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S.
gate operators are designed to
“time-out” 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 “Programming HomeLink”
step three with the following:
Note:If programming a garage door
opener or gate operator, it is advised to
unplug the device during the “cycling”
process to prevent possible
overheating.
1. Continue to press and hold the
HomeLink button while you press and
release -every two seconds (“cycle”)
your hand-held transmitter until the
frequency signal has successfully been
accepted by HomeLink (the indicator
light will flash slowly and then rapidly).
2. Proceed with the “Programming”
steps to complete.
Operating The System
Press the programmed HomeLink
button to operate a programmed
device.
The code will continue being
transmitted for a maximum of
20 seconds.
Reprogramming The
System
To program a device to HomeLink using
a HomeLink button previously trained,
follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired
HomeLink button. DO NOTrelease the
button;
2. The indicator light will begin to flash
after 20 seconds. Without releasing the
HomeLink button, proceed with
“Programming” - step one.
Erasing Programmed
Homelink Buttons
To erase the existing programming from
all three operating channels, press and
hold the two outside buttons 1 and
3 on the auto-dimming mirror until the
HomeLink indicator light begins to flash
after approximately 10 seconds.
Verify that the programming has been
erased when you resell the vehicle.

connected to the accessory socket.
Depending on the device connected
to the accessory socket, the vehicle's
electrical system may be affected,
which could cause the warning light to
illuminate. Disconnect the connected
device and make sure that the problem
is resolved. If the problem is resolved,
disconnect the device from the socket
and switch the ignition off. If the
problem is not resolved, contact an
Authorized Dealership. Note:
To prevent discharging of the
battery, do not use the socket for long
periods with the engine off or idling.

Electric power steering is only operable
when the engine is running.
If the engine is off or if the power
steering system is inoperable, you can
still steer, but it requires more physical
effort.
If the steering feels stiffer than usual
during normal driving or the steering
vibrates, contact your Authorized
Dealer.
The

cause lead to accumulate on the
catalyst inside the converter or cause
the converter to get very hot. Either
condition will damage the converter and
cause poor performance:
USE ONLY UNLEADED FUEL.
Do not drive your vehicle with any
sign of engine malfunction.
Do not coast with the ignition off.
Do not descend steep grades in gear
with the ignition off.
