GARAGE DOOR OPENER — IF EQUIPPED
Equipped in vehicles that have the optional Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
The HomeLinkWireless Control System provides a
convenient way to replace up to three hand-held radio-
frequency (RF) transmitters used to activate devices such
as gate operators, garage door openers, entry door locks,
security systems, even home lighting. Additional
HomeLink information can be found at:
www.homelink.comor by calling1-800-355-3515.
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.

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-

•In an accident, there is a 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
passengers are properly secured too.
•Do not allow small children to operate the sun-
roof. Never allow fingers or other body parts, or
any object to project through the sunroof opening.
Injury may result.

Front Power Outlet
150 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

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.
CUP HOLDERS
