Security indicator light
This light will illuminate for the vehicle secu-
rity system.
This light blinks whenever the ignition
switch is in the LOCK, OFF, or ACC posi-
tion. This function indicates the security
system equipped on the vehicle is opera-
tional.
How to activate the vehicle security
system
1. Close all windows.(The system can be
activated even if the windows are
open).
2. Remove the key from the ignition switch.
3. Close all doors and the hood.
4. Push the
button on the keyfob. All
doors lock. The hazard lights flash twice
and the horn beeps once to indicate all
doors are locked.
cWhen the
button is pushed with all
doors locked, the hazard lights flash
twice and the horn beeps once as a
reminder that the doors are already
locked.
The horn may or may not beep once.
Refer to ``silencing the horn beep fea-
ture'' later in this section for details.
5. Confirm that the SECURITY indicator
light comes on. The SECURITY light
glows for about 30 seconds and then
begins to flash once every three seconds.
The system is now activated. If, during
this 30-second time period, the door is
unlocked by the key or the keyfob, or theignition key is turned to ACC or ON, the
system will not activate.
If the key is turned slowly when locking
the door, the system may not activate.
Furthermore, if the key is turned exces-
sively to the unlock position, the system
may be deactivated when the key is re-
moved. If the indicator light fails to glow
for 30 seconds, unlock the door once
and lock it again.
Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will acti-
vate with all doors, hood and rear door
closed with the ignition key in the OFF
position.

LUGGAGE RACK
Always distribute the luggage evenly on the
luggage rack. Do not load more than 100
pounds (45 kg). Be careful that your vehicle
does not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR) or its Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR front and rear). The GVWR
and GAWR are located on the Safety Com-
pliance Certification Label (located on the
driver's door pillar). For more information
regarding GVWR and GAWR, refer to
``Technical and Consumer Information''.
The front and rear cross-bars can be adjusted
forward and backward. Place your luggagebetween the bars, adjust the bars, and secure
the luggage with rope to the bars. Always
check the tightness of the adjusting knobs.
There are also adjustable loops on the side
bars for the rope attachment.
CAUTION
Use care when placing or removing
items from the luggage rack. If you
cannot comfortably lift the items onto
the luggage rack from the ground, use
a ladder or stool.

their hands, etc. inside the vehicle
before closing the windows. Use the
window lock switch to prevent unex-
pected use of the power windows.

To turn on the map lights, press the
switches. To turn them off, press the
switches again.
Do not use for extended periods of time
with the engine stopped. This could
result in a discharged battery.The interior lights, the cargo light, the glove
box light, the stepwell lights near the sliding
doors and on the front doors, and the foot-
well lights near the driver's and front pas-
senger's feet illuminate when the front or
sliding doors are opened. Once the doors
are closed, these lights gradually dim to off
within 30 seconds or turn off immediately
when the key is turned to the ON position.
Battery saver
If the vehicle doors are not fully closed and
the interior lights remain illuminated, they
eventually turn off automatically to prevent
the battery from becoming discharged. If the
interior lights are left in the ON position, with
all doors closed, they will automatically turn
off after approximately 30 minutes. Lights
that illuminate when the front or sliding
doors are opened turn off after approxi-
mately 30 minutes. Lights that illuminate
when the back door is opened turn off after
approximately 60 minutes. Vanity mirror
lights are not part of the battery saver
system.
If the personal reading lights are left on after
the key is removed from the ignition, they
will automatically turn off after approxi-
mately 30 minutes.The HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver pro-
vides a convenient way to consolidate the
functions of up to three individual hand-held
transmitters into one built-in device.
cThe HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
will operate garage doors, gates, home/
office lighting systems and security sys-
tems by storing and transmitting the pro-
gramming information of your current
hand-held transmitters.
cThe HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver is
built-in and powered by your vehicle's
battery and charging system. No separate
batteries are necessary.
WARNING
Do not use this HomeLinkTUniversal
Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and re-
verse features as required by federal
safety standards (these standards be-
came effective for models manufac-
tured 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 the

safety standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features in-
creases the risk of serious injury or
death.

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 your transmit-
ter. The HomeLinkTUniversal Trans-
ceiver may not work with older garage
door openers that do not meet current
Federal Consumer Safety Standards.
1. Test the HomeLinkTUniversal Trans-
ceiver by pressing any button. The red
indicator light should come on. If you
have previously programmed a button
proceed to step 3.
2. Clear all channels on the HomeLinkT
Universal Transceiver by holding down
both outside buttons (#1 & #3) until the
red light begins to flash rapidly (approxi-
mately 20 seconds). Then release both
buttons.
3. Select which of the three HomeLinkT
Universal Transceiver buttons you want
to program.
4. Hold your hand-held transmitter against
the bottom surface of the HomeLinkT
Universal Transceiver so that you can
still see the red indicator light.
