To Accelerate for Passing
Depress the accelerator as you would normally. When the
pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the set speed.
NOTE: When driving uphill, at elevations above 2,000
ft. (610 meters), or when the vehicle is heavily loaded
(especially when towing) the vehicle may slow below the
SET speed. (If the vehicle speed drops below 35 mph (56
km/h), the Speed Control will automatically disengage).
If this happens, you can push down on the accelerator
pedal to maintain the desired speed.
A full throttle (high RPM) acceleration, while the system
is engaged, will cause the system to disengage.
Vehicles may exhibit several 4-3 downshifts under the
above conditions. To reduce the frequency of the down-
shifts and to improve vehicle performance, it is advisable
to lock out overdrive. Press the O/D OFF button on the
right side of the shift lever.WARNING!
Leaving the Speed Control on when not in use is
dangerous. You could accidentally set the system or
cause it to go faster than you want. You could lose
control and have an accident. Always turn the system
off when you are not using it.
OVERHEAD CONSOLE — IF EQUIPPED
The overhead console contains dome/reading lights, an
optional universal garage door opener (HomeLink ), an
optional sunroof switch, and an Electronic Vehicle Infor-
mation Center (EVIC) that consists of the following:
•Compass/temperature display
•Trip information displays
•Vehicle information warning message displays
•Customer programmable features

WARNING!
Before programming HomeLink to a garage door
opener or gate operator, make sure that people and
objects are out of the way of the device to prevent
potential harm or damage. When programming a
garage door opener, it is advised to park outside of
the garage. Do not use HomeLink with any garage
door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse fea-
tures as required by U.S. federal safety standards
(this includes any garage door opener model manu-
factured before April 1, 1982). A garage door that
cannot detect an object - signaling the door to stop
and reverse - does not meet current U.S. federal
safety standards. For more information, contact
HomeLink at: www.homelink.com or by calling:
1-800-355-3515.
Retain the original transmitter of the RF device you are
programming for use in other vehicles as well as for
future HomeLink programming. It is also suggested that
upon the sale of the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink
buttons be erased for security purposes. To erase the
programmed buttons, perform the procedure shown
below under When Your Vehicle Is New , or, for assis-
tance, contact HomeLink at: www.homelink.comor by
calling: 1-800-355-3515 .
When Your Vehicle Is New
Prior to programming HomeLink for the first time the
factory test codes must be erased. To erase HomeLink
memory, press and hold the two outer HomeLink buttons
(buttons one and three). The message CLEARING
CHANNELS will appear on the HomeLink display. After
approximately 20 seconds, the message CHANNELS
CLEARED will appear on the EVIC display. Do not hold
the buttons for longer than 30 seconds.

WARNING!
Vehicle exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a danger-
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.
Programming HomeLink
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.
1. Position the end of your hand-held transmitter 1-3
inches (5-14 cm) away from the lower left corner of the
EVIC display while keeping the display in view.
NOTE: Some gate operators and garage door openers
may require you to replace the next step with procedures
noted in the Gate Operator/Canadian Programming 
section.

2. Simultaneously press and hold both the desired
HomeLink button and the hand-held transmitter button.
After a short time, the message TRAINING will show on
HomeLink display. Do not release the buttons until the
next step has been completed. 3. When the message TRAINED appears on the
HomeLink display, release both the HomeLink and hand-
held transmitter buttons.
NOTE:
If the HomeLink display does not change to
TRAINED, contact HomeLink at www.homelink.comor
call 1-800-355-3515 for assistance.
4. Press and hold the just-trained HomeLink button.
TRANSMIT should appear on the display.
If your device activates when the HomeLink button is
depressed and released, programming is complete.
NOTE: To program the remaining two HomeLink but-
tons, simply repeat the Programming HomeLink pro-
cess.
If the message TRANSMIT appears on the HomeLink
display but your device does not activate, the device may
be equipped with a rolling codesystem. Continue with
HomeLink Buttons
148 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

steps five through seven below to complete the program-
ming of a rolling code equipped device (most commonly
a garage door opener).
5. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit)
in the garage, locate the learnorsmart button. This
can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is
attached to the motor-head unit.
6. Firmly press and release the learnorsmart button.
(The name and color of the button may vary by manu-
facturer.)
NOTE: There are 30 seconds in which to initiate the next
step.
7. 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 should now activate your rolling code
equipped device.
NOTE:
To program the remaining two HomeLink but-
tons, simply repeat the Programming Homelink pro-
cess.
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
UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 149

garage door opener’s Owner’s Manual. Finally, repro-
gram the hand-held transmitter(s) to HomeLink using
the steps under Programming HomeLink .
Gate Operator/Canadian Programming
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-outin the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties
programming a gate operator by using the Program-
ming HomeLink procedures (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
 cycling process to prevent possible overheating. Press and hold the HomeLink button while you press
and release - every two seconds (
cycle) your hand-held
transmitter button until the radio signal has success-
fully been accepted by HomeLink. (The message
TRAINED will appear on the HomeLink display.)
Proceed with the remaining steps under Programming
HomeLink to complete.
Using HomeLink
To operate, simply press and release the programmed
HomeLink button. Activation will now occur for the
trained device (i.e. garage door opener, gate operator,
security system, entry door lock, home/office lighting,
etc.). For convenience, the hand-held transmitter of the
device may also be used at any time. In the event that
there are still programming difficulties or questions,
contact HomeLink at: www.homelink.comor1-800-355-
3515 .
