NOTE:It is recommended that a new battery be placed
in the hand-held transmitter of the device being pro-
grammed to HomeLink for quicker training and accurate
transmission of the radio frequency signal.

ous gas. Do not run the vehicle’s engine while
programming HomeLink. Exhaust gas can cause se-
rious injury or death.
WARNING!
Your motorized door or gate will open and close
while you are programming HomeLink. Do not
program HomeLink if people or pets are in the path
of the door or gate. A moving door or gate can cause
serious injury or death to people and pets or damage
to objects.

inches (5-14 cm) away from the lower left corner of the
EVIC display while keeping the display in view.

If, after programming the HomeLink Wireless Control
System, the hand-held transmitter and/or other
HomeLink units in other vehicles fail to activate the
rolling code equipped device, you may need to clear (or
erase) the device’s receiver memory. Refer to your
garage door opener’s Owner’s Manual for the proce-
dure or contact HomeLink at 1-800-355-3515 or on the
Internet at www.homelink.com. After clearing the re-
ceiver, you must reprogram the original hand-held
transmitter(s) to the receiver using the procedure in the
garage door opener’s Owner’s Manual. Finally, repro-
gram the hand-held transmitter(s) to HomeLink using
the steps underProgramming HomeLink.Gate Operator/Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter sig-
nals totime-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 totime-outin the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties
programming a gate operator by using theProgram-
ming HomeLinkprocedures (regardless of where you
live), replace step two with the following:
NOTE:If programming a garage door opener or gate
operator, it is advised to unplug the device during the
cyclingprocess to prevent possible overheating.

Press and hold the HomeLink button while you press
and release - every two seconds (cycle) your hand-held

POWER OUTLET
To the right of the convenience tray (lower center of
instrument panel) is an outlet for electrically powered
accessories. Pull lightly on the top of the plastic cover to

Front Power OutletRear Power Outlet
148 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

The rear power outlet is a direct feed from the battery so
it receives power whether the ignition is in the ON or
OFF position.
All accessories connected to this outlet should be re-
moved or turned off when the vehicle is not in use.CAUTION!
Electrical Outlet Use With Engine Off
•Many accessories that can be plugged in draw
power from the vehicle’s battery, even when not
in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if
plugged in long enough, the vehicle’s battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life
and/or prevent engine starting.
•Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the
battery even more quickly. Only use these inter-
mittently and with greater caution.
•After the use of high power draw accessories, or
long periods of the vehicle not being started (with
accessories still plugged in), the vehicle must be
driven a sufficient length of time to allow the
alternator to recharge the vehicle’s battery.
