Brake pad wear warning
The disc brake pads have audible wear
warnings. When a brake pad requires
replacement, it will make a high pitched
scraping sound when the vehicle is in
motion. This scraping sound will first

3. Press and hold the programmedHomeLink® button and observe the
indicator light.
.If the indicator lightis solid/
continuous, programming is com-
plete and your device should acti-
vate when the HomeLink® button is
pressed and released.
.If the indicator lightblinks rapidly
for two seconds and then turns to a
solid/continuous light, continue
with Steps 4-6 for a rolling code
device. A second person may make
the following steps easier. Use a
ladder or other device. Do not stand
on your vehicle to perform the next
steps. 4. At the receiver located on the garage
door opener motor in the garage,
locate the “learn” or “smart” button
(the name and color of the button
may vary by manufacturer but it is
usually located near where the hang-
ing antenna wire is attached to the
unit). If there is difficulty locating the
button, reference the garage door
opener’s manual.
5. Press and release the “learn” or “smart” button.
NOTE:
Once the button is pressed, you have
approximately 30 seconds to initiate
the next step.
6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and hold the programmed HomeLink®

Repeat the “press/hold/release” se-
quence up to 3 times to complete
the programming process. HomeLink®

PROGRAMMING HomeLink® FOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS AND GATE
OPENERS
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals 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 de-
signed to “time-out” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator
or garage door opener by using the
“Programming HomeLink®” procedures,
replace “Programming HomeLink®” Step
2 with the following:
NOTE:
When programming a garage door
opener, etc., unplug the device during
the “cycling” process to prevent possi-
ble damage to the garage door opener
components.
Step 2: Using both hands, simultaneously
press and hold the desired HomeLink®
button and the hand-held transmitter
button. During programming, your hand-
held transmitter may automatically stop
transmitting. Continue to press and hold
the desired HomeLink® button while you
press and re-press (“cycle”) your hand-

3. Slowly back up the vehicle adjustingthe steering wheel so that the pre-
dictive course lines
enter the park-
ing space.
4. Maneuver the steering wheel to make the vehicle width guide lines
parallel
to the parking spacewhile referring
to the predictive course lines. 5. When the vehicle is parked in the
space completely, move the shift lever
to the P (Park) position (Automatic
Transmission models) or in an appro-
priate gear (Manual Transmission
models) and apply the parking brake.
Difference between predictive and
actual distances
The displayed guide lines and their loca-
tions on the ground are for approximate
reference only. Objects on uphill or down-
hill surfaces or projecting objects will be
actually located at distances different
from those displayed in the monitor
relative to the guide lines (refer to illustra-
tions). When in doubt, turn around and
view the objects as you are backing up, or
park and exit the vehicle to view the
positioning of objects behind the vehicle.
JVH1355X
Backing up on a steep uphill:
When backing up the vehicle up a hill, the
distance guide lines and the vehicle width
guide lines are shown closer than the
actual distance. Note that any object on
the hill is further than it appears on the
monitor.
