Pull the day/night lever toward you to
reduce the glare from the headlights of
the vehicles behind you during night driv-
ing.Remember that you lose some rearviewclarity in the night position.
D140102AHM-EE-C1Electrochromic Mirror (ECM)(if equipped)The electric rearview mirror automatical-
ly controls the glare from the headlights
of the vehicles behind you in nighttime or
low light driving conditions. The sensor
mounted in the mirror senses the light
level around the vehicle, and automati-
cally controls the headlight glare from the
vehicles behind you.
When the engine is running, the glare is
automatically controlled by the sensor
mounted in the rearview mirror.
Whenever the shift lever is shifted into
reverse (R), the mirror will automatically
go to the brightest setting in order to
improve the drivers view behind the vehi-
cle.

Retain the original transmitter for future
programming procedures (i.e., new vehi-
cle purchase). It is also suggested that
upon the sale of the vehicle, the pro-
grammed HomeLink buttons be erased
for security purposes (follow step 1 in the
“Programming” portion of this text).
Programming
Your vehicle may require the ignition
switch to be turned to the ACC position
for programming and/or operation of
HomeLink. It is also recommended that a
new battery be replaced in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being pro-
grammed to HomeLink for quicker train-
ing and accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency.
Follow these steps to train your
HomeLink mirror: 1. When programming the buttons for the
first time, press and hold
the left and
center buttons (
,
)simultane-
ously until the indicator light begins to
flash after approximately 20 seconds.
(This procedure erases the factory-set
default codes. Do not perform this step
when programming the additional
HomeLink buttons.)
WARNING
When programming the HomeLink® Wireless Control
System, you may be operating a
garage door or gate operator.
Make sure that people and objects
are out of the way of the moving
door or gate to prevent potential
harm or damage.
Do not use HomeLink with any garage door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse feature
as required by federal safety
standards. (This includes any
garage door opener model manu-
factured 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 risk of serious injury or
death. For more information, call
1-800-355-3515 or on the internet
at www.homelink.com.

tions after completing the “Programming”
portion of this text. (A second person
may make the following training proce-
dures quicker & easier.)

location and color of the button may
vary by product brand. If there is diffi-
culty locating the “learn” or “smart” but-
