2-53 Convex Outside Mirror
Your passenger's side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror's surface is curved so you can see more from
the driver's seat.
CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder
before changing lanes.
Heated Outside Rearview Mirror
(If Equipped)
When you operate the rear window defogger, the heated
driver's and passenger's outside rearview mirrors also

such as a cellular telephone, CB radio, etc. Follow the

2-60 Operating the HomeLink

Transmitter
Press and release the appropriate button on the
HomeLink Transmitter. The indicator light comes on
while the signal is being transmitted. The trunk release
lockout switch must be OFF.
If the hand
-held transmitter appears to program the
HomeLink Transmitter but does not open your garage
door, and if the garage door opener was manufactured
after 1996, the garage door opener may have a ªrolling
codeº system. A rolling code system changes the code
of the garage door opener every time you open or close
the garage door.
To determine if you have this system, press the button
on the HomeLink Transmitter that you have already
programmed. If the indicator light on the HomeLink
Transmitter flashes rapidly for two seconds and then
turns solid, the garage door opener has a rolling code
system. In a rolling code system, the garage door motor
head unit must be trained to the HomeLink Transmitter.
ªRolling Codeº Programming (If Equipped)
If you have not previously programmed the hand-held
transmitter to the HomeLink Transmitter, see
ªProgramming the HomeLink

Transmitterº listed
previously. If you have completed this programming
already, you now need to train the garage door opener
motor head unit to recognize the HomeLink Transmitter.
Refer to your garage door opener owner's manual for
the proper transmitter training procedure for your garage
door opener brand.
1. Find the training button on the garage door opener
motor head unit. The exact location and color of
the button may vary by garage door opener brand.
If you have difficulty finding the training button,
refer to your garage door opener owner's manual.
2. Press the training button on the garage door
opener motor head unit.
Following this step, you have 30 seconds to
start Step 3.

your radio and comfort control settings. See ªComfort
Controls, Personalizationº in the Index.
If you unlock the vehicle using your door key instead
of your transmitter, the personal choice settings will
correspond to the previous driver of the vehicle as
identified by a transmitter, a memory seat control or
through the DIC. If this happens and you were not
the last driver of the vehicle, press your correct driver
number on the memory seat controls, press the
