Vehicle Modifications / Alterations Warning!Any change or alteration of the vehicle might seriously affect its safety and road holding, thus causing accidents, in which the occupants
could be fatally injured.
ACCESSORIES PURCHASED BY THE OWNER
If after buying the vehicle, you decide to install electrical accessories that require a permanent electrical supply (e.g. radio,
satellite anti-theft system, etc.) or accessories that burden the electrical supply, contact your authorized dealer, whose
personnel will check whether the vehicles's electrical system is able to withstand the load required , or whether it needs to be
integrated with a more powerful battery.
Note: Use only floor mats that leave the pedal area unobstructed and that are firmly secured so that they cannot slip out of
position and interfere with the pedals or impair safe operation of your vehicle in other ways.
INSTALLING ELECTRICAL / ELECTRONIC DEVICES
The following regulatory statement applies to all radio frequency (RF) devices equipped in this vehicle:
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is
subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference.
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Note: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority
to operate the equipment.

RADIO TRANSMITTERS AND MOBILE PHONES
Radio transmitter equipment (vehicle mobile phones, CB radios, amateur radio etc.) cannot be used inside the vehicle unless a
separate aerial is mounted externally.
Transmission and reception of these devices may be affected by the shielding effect of the vehicle body. As far as the use of
EC-approved mobile phones is concerned (GSM, GPRS, UMTS, LTE), follow the usage instructions provided by the mobile
phone Manufacturer.
The use of these devices inside the vehicle (without an external aerial) may cause the electrical systems to malfunction. This
could compromise the vehicle safety in addition to constituting a potential hazard for passengers' health.
If mobile phones/laptops/smartphones/tablets are inside the vehicle and/or close to the electronic key, a reduced performance
of the Advanced Keyless Entry System may occur.
CELL PHONE WARNING
Note: Please comply with the legal regulations concerning the use of communication equipment in vehicles in your country.
Use of any electrical devices such as cell phones, computers, portable radios, vehicle navigation or other devices by the driver
while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. Dialing a number on a cell phone while driving also ties-up the driver's hands. Use of
these devices will cause the driver to be distracted and could lead to a serious accident. If a passenger is unable to use the
device, pull off the right-of-way to a safe area before use. If use of a cell phone is necessary despite this warning, use a
hands-free system to at least leave the hands free to drive the vehicle. Never use a cell phone or other electrical devices while
the vehicle is moving and, instead, concentrate on the full-time job of driving.

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
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 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. 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 04060102-121-999

should now activate your rolling code
equipped device.
Note: To program the remaining two
HomeLink buttons, begin with 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 The
System” 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
Push 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. Push and hold the desired HomeLink
button. DO NOT release the button;
2. The indicator light will begin to flash
after 20 seconds. Without releasing the
HomeLink button, proceed with
“Programming The System” step one.
Erasing Programmed
HomeLink Buttons
To erase the existing programming from
all three operating channels, push 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. INTERNAL
EQUIPMENT Storage Compartments
Center Console
The center console is located between
the driver’s and passenger’s seats.
Warning!Keep storage compartments closed when
driving. Driving with the storage
compartments open is dangerous. To
reduce the possibility of injury in an
accident or a sudden stop, keep the
storage compartments closed when
driving.
Caution!Do not leave lighters or eyeglasses in the
storage compartments while parked under
the sun. A lighter could explode or the
plastic material in eyeglasses could deform
and crack from high temperature.
