HOW DOES THE MEMORY
FUNCTION WORK
The memory function recalls the position
of these features:
• Driver seat.
• Power mirrors.
MEMORY FUNCTION
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Before activating the

immediately surrounding the seat is clear
of obstructions and that all occupants
are clear of moving parts.
WARNING: Do not use the memory
function when your vehicle is moving.
LOCATING THE MEMORY
FUNCTION BUTTONS
E142554
The memory function buttons are on the
driver door.
SAVING A PRESET POSITION
1. Switch the ignition on.
2. Adjust the memory features to your preferred position.

You can also recall a preset memory
position by:
• Pressing the unlock button on your remote control if you linked it to a
preset position.

WHAT IS THE GARAGE DOOR
OPENER
HomeLink Wireless Control
System
E18821E1882111
The universal garage door opener replaces
the common hand-held garage door
opener with a three-button transmitter
integrated into the driver’s sun visor.
HOW DOES THE GARAGE
DOOR OPENER WORK
The system includes two primary features,
a garage door opener and a platform for
remote activation of devices within the
home. You can program garage doors as
well as entry gate operators, security
systems, entry door locks and home or
office lighting.
Additional system information can be
found online at www.homelink.com or by
calling the toll-free help line at
1-800-355-3515.
Note:You can program a maximum of
three devices. To change or replace any of
the three devices after it has been initially
programmed, you must first erase the
current settings. See Clearing the Garage
Door Opener (page 164).
GARAGE DOOR OPENER
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Do not use the system
with any garage door opener that does
not have the safety stop and reverse
feature as required by U.S. Federal
Safety Standards (this includes any
garage door opener manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage door
opener which cannot detect an object,
signaling the door to stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal safety
standards. Using a garage door opener
without these features increases the risk
of serious injury or death.
Note: Make sure that the garage door and
security device are free from obstruction
when you are programming. Do not program
the system with your vehicle in the garage.
Note: Make sure you keep the original
remote control transmitter for use in other
vehicles as well as for future system
programming.
Note: We recommend that upon the sale
or lease termination of your vehicle, you
erase the programmed function buttons for
security reasons. See Clearing the Garage
Door Opener (page 164).
GARAGE DOOR OPENER
LIMITATIONS
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to time-out (or quit)
after several seconds – which may not be
long enough for HomeLink to pick up the
signal.
U.S. gate operators time-out in the same
manner.

ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (IF
EQUIPPED)
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Failure to follow engine
block heater instructions could result in
property damage or serious personal
injury.
WARNING: Do not use your heater
with ungrounded electrical systems or
two-pronged adapters. There is a risk of
electrical shock.
WARNING: Do not fully close the
hood, or allow it to drop under its own
weight when using the engine block
heater. This could damage the power
cable and may cause an electrical short
resulting in fire, injury and property
damage.
We recommend that you do the following
for a safe and correct operation:
• Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cord that is product certified by
Underwriter’s Laboratory (UL) or
Canadian Standards Association
(CSA). This extension cord must be
suitable for use outdoors, in cold
temperatures, and be clearly marked
Suitable for Use with Outdoor
Appliances. Do not use an indoor
extension cord outdoors. This could
result in an electric shock or become a
fire hazard.
• Use as short an extension cord as possible.
• Do not use multiple extension cords. • Make sure that when in operation, the
extension cord plug and engine block
heater cord plug connections are free
and clear of water. This could cause an
electric shock or fire.
• If the engine block heater cord is under the hood, do not remove the wiring
from its original location. Do not close
the hood on the extension wiring.
• Park your vehicle in a clean area, clear of combustible materials.
• Firmly connect the engine block heater cord and the extension cord.
• Check the extension cord for heat anywhere when the system has been
operating for approximately 30
minutes.
• Unplug and properly stow the system before starting and driving your vehicle.
The protective cover seals the
terminals of the engine block heater
cord plug when not in use.
• Check the engine block heater system for proper operation before winter.
HOW DOES THE ENGINE BLOCK
HEATER WORK
The engine block heater warms the engine
coolant. This allows the climate control
system to quickly respond. The equipment
includes a heater element installed in the
engine block and a wire harness. You can
connect the system to a grounded
220-240 volt AC electrical source.
Note: The engine block heater is most
effective when outdoor temperatures are
below 0°F (-18°C).
USING THE ENGINE BLOCK
HEATER
Make sure the receptacle terminals are
clean and dry prior to use. Clean them with
a dry cloth if necessary.

E306677
Note: You can identify charging faults by
the color orange on the charge status
indicator. Faults can occur within the vehicle
charging system or outside the vehicle, such
as with the charge cord, charge station or
electrical supply.
Note: If the system detects a fault in the
vehicle charging system at any point in a
charge cycle, the entire charge status
indicator lights up solidly in an orange color
for 30 seconds and then turns off. If this
happens, unplug the charging coupler and
then plug it back into the charge port
receptacle. If the problem persists, have
your vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Note: If the system detects a fault outside
the vehicle, such as with the charge station
or charge cord, the entire charge status
indicator flashes continuously for 30
seconds and then turns off. If this happens,
check the charge cord and the charge
station or electrical supply.
Note: Put your vehicle in park (P) to charge,
and for the charge status indicator to
