Canadian/Gate Operator Programming
For programming transmitters in Canada/United
States that require the transmitter signals to “time-out”
after several seconds of transmission:
Canadian radio frequency laws require transmitter sig-
nals 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.
It may be helpful to unplug the device during the
cycling process to prevent possible overheating of the
garage door or gate motor.
1. Cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
NOTE:For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-
Go, place the ignition in the RUN position with the
engine ON. Make sure while programming HomeLink
with the engine ON that your vehicle is outside of your
garage, or that the garage door remains open at all
times. 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. Continue to push and hold the HomeLink button while you push and release (“cycle”) your hand-held
transmitter every two seconds until HomeLink has
successfully accepted the frequency signal. The indi-
cator light will flash slowly and then rapidly when
fully trained.
4. Watch for the HomeLink indicator to change flash rates. When it changes, it is programmed. It may take
up to 30 seconds or longer in rare cases. The garage
door may open and close while you are program-
ming.
5. Push and hold the programmed HomeLink button and observe the indicator light.
114 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

NOTE:•If the indicator light stays on constantly, program-
ming is complete and the garage door/device
should activate when the HomeLink button is
pushed.
• To program the two remaining HomeLink buttons,
repeat each step for each remaining button. DO
NOT erase the channels.
If you unplugged the garage door opener/device for
programming, plug it back in at this time.
Reprogramming A Single HomeLink Button
(Canadian/Gate Operator)
To reprogram a channel that has been previously
trained, follow these steps:
1. Cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
NOTE: For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-
Go, place the ignition in the RUN position with the
engine ON. Make sure while programming HomeLink
with the engine ON that your vehicle is outside of your
garage, or that the garage door remains open at all
times. 2. Push and hold the desired HomeLink button until
the indicator light begins to flash after 20 seconds.
Do not release the button.
3. Without releasing the button, proceed with
“Canadian/Gate Operator Programming” step 2 and
follow all remaining steps.
Using HomeLink
To operate, switch the ignition to the ON/RUN position
and the press 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 device may also be
used at any time. If the ignition is switched to the OFF
position, HomeLink will remain active for three min-
utes. During this time, if the vehicle is locked,
HomeLink is disabled.
Security
It is advised to erase all channels before you sell or turn
in your vehicle.
To do this, push and hold the two outside buttons for 20
seconds until the red indicator flashes.

WARNING!
•Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Never leave the key
fob in or near the vehicle or in a location acces-
sible to children. Occupants, particularly unat-
tended children, can become entrapped by the
power sunroof while operating the power sunroof
switch. Such entrapment may result in serious
injury or death.
• In a collision, there is greater risk of being thrown
from a vehicle with an open sunroof. You could
also be seriously injured or killed. Always fasten
your seat belt properly and make sure all passen-
gers are properly secured too.
• Do not allow small children to operate the sun-
roof. Never allow your fingers, other body parts,
or any object to project through the sunroof
opening. Injury may result.
To Open
Pull the power sunroof switch for approximately one
second and the sunroof will stop at the vented position. Pull the power sunroof switch a second time for ap-
proximately one second and release, the sunroof will
open fully, then stop automatically. This is called “Ex-
press Open”.
NOTE:
During Express Open operation, any movement
of the sunroof switch will stop the sunroof.
To Close
With the sunroof in the full open position, pull and hold
the power sunroof switch for approximately one sec-
ond.
NOTE: During Express close any movement of the
sunroof switch will stop the sunroof.
Wind Buffeting
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of
pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the
ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain
open or partially open positions. This is a normal
occurrence and can be minimized. If the buffeting
occurs with the rear windows open, open the front and
rear windows together to minimize the buffeting. If the
118 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the
sunroof opening to minimize the buffeting or open any
window.
Power Sun Blind
Pull the power sun blind switch and the blind will
move towards the rear part of the vehicle, until it is fully
open.
With the blind fully open pull the power sun blind
switch and the blind will move towards the front part of
the vehicle, until it is fully closed.
NOTE:During the automatic opening and closing
stages, if the power sun blind switch is pulled again it
will stop the blind movement.
POWER OUTLETS
Passenger Compartment Power Socket
The power outlet is located on the central tunnel, in
front of the gear selector, between the two cup holders.
It only operates with the ignition key at MAR/ON.
On models with optional smoker ’s kit,the cigar
lighter takes the place of the power socket (see Cigar
lighter paragraph). NOTE:
Do not connect devices with power higher than
180 W to the socket. Do not damage the socket by using
unsuitable adaptors.CIGAR LIGHTER — IF EQUIPPED
This is located on the central tunnel, next to the parking
brake lever. To activate the cigar lighter, push and
release the knob. After a few seconds the knob auto-
matically returns to its initial position, and the cigar
lighter is ready for use.

Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Warning Light
Red TelltaleLight What It Means
Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Warning Light
This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system. If a
problem is detected while the engine is running, the light will either stay on or flash de-
pending on the nature of the problem. Cycle the ignition key when the vehicle is safely and
completely stopped and the transmission is placed in the PARK position. The light should
turn off. If the light remains on with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be driv-
able; however, see an authorized dealer for service as soon as possible.
If the light continues to flash when the engine is running, immediate service is required and
you may experience reduced performance, an elevated/rough idle, or engine stall and your
vehicle may require towing. The light will come on when the ignition is first turned to ON/
RUN and remain on briefly as a bulb check. If the light does not come on during starting,
have the system checked by an authorized dealer.

Engine Check/Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
Yellow TelltaleLight What It Means
Engine Check/Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
The Engine Check/Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is a part of an Onboard Diagnostic
System called OBD II that monitors engine and automatic transmission control systems. The
light will illuminate when the ignition is in the ON/RUN position before engine start. If the
bulb does not come on when turning the key from OFF to ON/RUN, have the condition
checked promptly.
Certain conditions, such as a loose or missing gas cap, poor quality fuel, etc., may illuminate
the light after engine start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on through sev-
eral typical driving styles. In most situations, the vehicle will drive normally and will not
require towing.
When the engine is running, the MIL may flash to alert serious conditions that could lead to
immediate loss of power or severe catalytic converter damage. The vehicle should be ser-
viced as soon as possible if this occurs.
WARNING!
A malfunctioning catalytic converter, as referenced
above, can reach higher temperatures than in nor-
mal operating conditions. This can cause a fire if
