Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Programming the Transmitter
Do not use the universal transmitter with any garage
door opener that does not have the “stop and reverse” safety feature. This includes any garage door opener
model manufactured before April
1, 1982.
Be sure that people and objects
are clear of the garage
door you are programming.
Turn the ignition
off while programming the transmitter.
Follow these steps to program up to three channels:
1.
2.
3.
If you have previously programmed a transmitter
channel, proceed to Step
2. Otherwise, hold down
the two outside buttons on the universal transmitter
until the light on the transmitter begins to flash
rapidly (approximately
20 seconds). Then release the
buttons. This procedure initializes the memory and erases any previous settings for all three channels.
Decide which one of the three channels you want
to program.
Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter against the
front surface of the universal transmitter
so that you
can still see the amber light.
4. Using both hands, press the hand-held transmitter
button and the desired button on the universal
transmitter. Continue to press both buttons through Step
5.
5. Hold down both buttons until you see the light on
the universal transmitter flash slowly and then
rapidly. The rapid flashing, which could take up to
90 seconds, indicates that the universal transmitter
has been programmed. Release both buttons once the
light starts to flash rapidly.
If you have trouble programming the universal
transmitter, make sure that you have followed the
directions exactly as described and that the battery in the
hand-held transmitter is not dead.
If you still cannot
program it, rotate the hand-held transmitter end over end
and
try again. The universal transmitter may not work
with older garage door openers that do not meet current
Federal Consumer Safety Standards.
If you cannot
program the transmitter after repeated attempts, consult
your dealer.

“Rolling Codes”
(If Equipped)
If you have not previously programmed the hand-held
transmitter to the universal transmitter, see
“Programming the Transmitter” in the Index. If you
have completed this programming,
you need to train the
garage door opener receiver to recognize the universal
transmitter. Refer to
your garage door opener owner’s
manual for the proper transmitter training procedure for
your garage door opener brand.
1.
2.
3. Locate
the training button
on the garage door opener
receiver. The exact location and color of the button
may vary by garage door opener brand. If you have difficulty locating the training button, refer to your
garage door opener manual.
Press the training button on the garage door opener
receiver for one or
two seconds. A light indicator will
begin to
flash when the receiver enters the train mode.
Return to the universal transmitter
in your vehicle
and press the universal transmitter button you have
already programmed for two to three seconds. Press
the button again to make sure that the universal
transmitter has been trained to the garage door opener receiver. Check that the train was successful.
The receiver light should no longer be flashing. The
garage door opener should now recognize the
universal transmitter.
You may either use the universal
transmitter
or the hand-held transmitter to open the
garage door.
If after following these instructions you still have
problems training the garage door opener, consult
your dealer.
Erasing Chan--
To erase all three programmed channels, hold down the
two outside buttons until the red light begins to flash.
Individual channels cannot be erased, but can be
reprogrammed using the procedure for programming the
transmitter explained earlier.

The speedometer lets you see your speed in both miles per
hour (mph) and kilometers per hour
(km/h). The odometer
shows how
far your vehicle has been driven, in either miles
(used in the United States) or kilometers (used in Canada).\
You may wonder what happens if a vehicle has
to have a
new odometer installed. The new one may read the correct
mileage.
This is because your vehicle’s computer has
stored the mileage in memory.
Trip Odometer
There are two trip
odometers, which are indicated by Trip
A
and Trip B. Press the top
of the button
to reset the odometers. For
information on resetting these buttons, see “Control
Buttons”
in the Index.
Display Mode
This button is located between the trip odometer button
and the EnglishMetric display button. Press
DSPL
MODE to turn the backlighting and the digital speed
image on and off.
EnglisWetric Display
You can go back and forth
from English (miles) to
metric (kilometers) by
pressing this button.
In order to switch from one to the other, press the Ah3
portion of the button. By pressing this button, you can tell
how many miles you have traveled on either your Trip
A
or Trip B odometer since you last set the odometer back
to zero. Other readings such
as temperature, fuel and trip
odometer also go back and forth between English and metric.

This feature prevents your vehicle from exceeding
speeds that the tires are not rated for. When this
happens, the engine’s fuel supply is shut
off. When the
vehicle speed slows, the fuel supply will come on again.
Tach neter
This gage indicates the
engine speed in revolutions

Engine Speed Limiter
This feature prevents the engine from operating at too
many revolutions per minute (rpm). When the engine’s
rpm are critically high, the fuel supply to the engine is
shut
off. When the engine speed slows, the fuel supply
will come on again. This helps prevent damage to
the engine.
Warning Lights, Gages and Indicators
This part describes the warning lights and gages that may be on your vehicle. The pictures will help

wrong before it becomes serious enough to cause an
expensive repair or replacement. Paying attention to
your warning lights and gages could also save you or
others from injury.

When one
of the warning lights comes on and stays on
when you are driving, or when one
of the gages shows
there may be

what to do about it. Please follow
this manual’s advice.
Waiting to do repairs can be costly

So please get to know your warning lights
and gages. They’re a big help.
Your vehicle also has a Driver Information Center that
works along with the warning lights and gages. See “Driver Information Center” in the Index.
Safety Belt Reminder Light
When the key is turned to ON or START, a chime will
come on for about eight seconds to remind people to
fasten their safety belts.
The safety belt light will also come on and stay on
for about
70 seconds. If the
driver’s belt is already
buckled, neither the chime
nor the light will come
on.
Air Bag Readiness Light
There is an air bag readiness light on the instrument
panel, which shows
AIR BAG. The system checks the
air bag’s electrical system for malfunctions. The light
tells you if there is an electrical problem. The system
check includes the air bag sensors, the air bag modules,
the wiring and the crash sensing and diagnostic module.

This light will come on when you start your engine, and
it will flash for a few seconds. Then the light should go
out. This means the system
is ready.
If the air bag readiness light stays on after you start the
engine or comes
on when you are driving, your air bag
system may not work properly. Have your vehicle
serviced right away.
The air bag readiness light should flash for a few
seconds when you turn the ignition key
to ON. If the
light doesn’t come on then, have it fixed
so it will be
ready
to warn you if there is a problem.

Charging system Indicator Light
This light goes on when you
turn your key to ON or
START. It goes off once you
start your engine.
That’s a check to be sure the light works.
If it doesn’t

so it will be there to
warn you if something goes wrong.
If this light stays
on, you need service and you should
take your vehicle to the dealer at once. To save your
battery until you get there, turn off all accessories.
