depressed to the floor. If maximum en-
gine power is needed to free a stuck
vehicle, turn the VDC system off.
To turn off the VDC system, push the VDC
OFF switch. The

The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
provides a convenient way to consolidate
the functions of up to three individual
hand-held transmitters into one built-in
device.
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver:
.Will operate most Radio Frequency
(RF) devices such as garage doors,
gates, home and office lighting, entry
door locks and security systems.
. Is powered by your vehicle’s battery.
No separate batteries are required. If
the vehicle’s battery is discharged or is
disconnected, HomeLink® will retain
all programming.
When the HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver is programmed, retain the origi-
nal transmitter for future programming
procedures (Example: new vehicle pur-
chases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver buttons should be erased
for security purposes. For additional
information, refer to “Programming
HomeLink®” (P.2-84).
WARNING
. Do not use the HomeLink® Uni-
versal Transceiver with any gar-
age door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as re-
quired by federal safety stan-
dards. (These standards became
effective for opener models man-
ufactured after April 1, 1982.) A
garage door opener which cannot
detect an object in the path of a
closing garage door and then
automatically stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage
door opener without these fea-
tures increases the risk of serious
injury or death.
. During the programming proce-
dure your garage door or security
gate will open and close (if the
transmitter is within range). Make
sure that people or objects are
clear of the garage door, gate,
etc. that you are programming.
. Your vehicle’s engine should be
turned off while programming
the HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver. Do not breathe exhaust
gases; they contain colorless
and odorless carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is dangerous. It
can cause unconsciousness or
death.
