UNIVERSAL GARAGE DOOR OPENER (HomeLink®)
HomeLink®replaces up to three hand-held transmitters that operate devices such
as garage door openers, motorized gates, lighting or home security systems.The
HomeLink® unit is powered by your vehicles 12 Volt battery.
HomeLink® buttons that are located in the sun-visor designate the three different
HomeLink® channels that can be programmed.
A HomeLink® indicator lightis located above the center button.
Before You Begin Programming
HomeLink®
Ensure that your vehicle is parked outside
of the garage before you begin program-
ming.
For efficient programming and accurate
transmission of the radio-frequency signal, it
is recommended that a new battery be
placed in the hand-held transmitter of the
device that is being programmed to the
HomeLink® system.
To erase the channels, place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position, then push and
hold the two outside HomeLink® buttons (I and III) for up to 20 seconds or until the
red indicator flashes.
NOTE:
Erasing all channels should only be performed when programming HomeLink® for the
first time.Do not erase channels when programming additional buttons.
If you have any problems, or require assistance, please call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 or, on
the Internet at HomeLink.com for information or assistance.
Programming A Rolling Code
NOTE:
For programming Garage Door Openers that were manufactured after 1995.These Ga-
rage Door Openers can be identified by the “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button located where
the hanging antenna is attached to the Garage Door Opener.It is NOT the button that
is normally used to open and close the door.The name and color of the button may
vary by manufacturer.
1.Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position.
2.Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink®
button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink® indicator light in view.
3.Push and hold the HomeLink® button you want to program while you push and hold
the hand-held transmitter button.

Using HomeLink®
To operate, push and release the programmed HomeLink®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.,).The hand-held transmitter of the de-
vice may also be used at any time.
WARNING!
•Your motorized door or gate will open and close while you are programming the
universal transceiver.Do not program the transceiver if people or pets are in the
path of the door or gate.
•Do not run your vehicle in a closed garage or confined area while programming
the transceiver.Exhaust gas from your vehicle contains Carbon Monoxide (CO)
which is odorless and colorless.Carbon Monoxide is poisonous when inhaled and
can cause you and others to be severely injured or killed.
POWER INVERTER — IF EQUIPPED
There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt power in-
verter outlet located on the back of the
center console.This outlet can power cellu-
lar phones, electronics and other low
power devices requiring power up to 150
Wa t t s.
•To turn on the power outlet, simply plug
in the device.The outlet automatically
turns off when the device is unplugged.
NOTE:
The power inverter is designed with built-in overload protection.If the power rating of
150 Watts is exceeded, the power inverter will automatically shut down.Once the elec-
trical device has been removed from the outlet, the inverter should automatically reset.If
the power rating exceeds approximately 170 Watts, the power inverter may have to be
reset manually.To reset the inverter manually, unplug the device and plug it in again.To
avoid overloading the circuit, check the power ratings on electrical devices prior to using
the inverter.

minate momentarily.If the warning light stays on, cycle the ignition to the OFF position
and back to ON/RUN.If the warning light stays on, contact your authorized dealer.

WARNING!
•Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of the vehicle close to moving traffic.
Pull far enough off the road to avoid the danger of being hit when operating the
jack or changing the wheel.
•Being under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous.The vehicle could slip off the jack
and fall on you.You could be crushed.Never put any part of your body under a
vehicle that is on a jack.
•Never start or run the engine while the vehicle is on a jack.if you need to get
under a raised vehicle, take it to a authorized dealer where it can be raised on a
lift.
•The jack is designed to use as a tool for changing tires only.The jack should not be
used to lift the vehicle for service purposes.The vehicle should be jacked on a
firm, level surface only.Avoid ice or slippery areas.
•After using the jack and tools, always reinstall them in the original carrier and loca-
tion.While driving you may experience abrupt stopping, rapid acceleration, or
sharp turns.A loose jack, tools, bracket or other objects in the vehicle may move
around with force, resulting in serious injury.
•Carefully follow these tire changing warnings to help prevent personal injury or
damage to your vehicle:
•Always park on a firm, level surface as far from the edge of the roadway as pos-
sible before raising the vehicle.
•Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
•Block the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be raised.
•Set the parking brake firmly and set an automatic transmission in PARK; a manual
transmission in REVERSE.
•Do not let anyone sit in the vehicle when it is on a jack.
•Do not get under the vehicle when it is on a jack.
•Only use the jack in the positions indicated and for lifting this vehicle during a tire
change.
•If working on or near a roadway, be extremely careful of motor traffic.
•To assure that spare tires, flat or inflated, are securely stowed, spares must be
stowed with the valve stem facing the ground.
•Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the vehicle unstable and cause
a collision.It could slip off the jack and hurt someone near it.Raise the vehicle
only enough to remove the tire.
•A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could injure some-
one in the vehicle.Always stow the jack parts and the extra tire and wheel in the
places provided.
