² As the airbags deflate you may see some smoke-like
particles. The particles are a normal by-product of the
process that generates the nontoxic gas used for airbag
inflation. These airborne particles may irritate the skin,
eyes, nose, or throat. If you have skin or eye irritation,
rinse the area with cool water. For nose or throat
irritation, move to fresh air. If the irritation continues,
see your doctor. If these particles settle on your
clothing, follow the garment manufacturer's instruc-
tions for cleaning.
² It is not advisable to drive your vehicle after the
airbags have deployed. If you are involved in another
collision, the airbags and seat belt pretensioners will
not be in place to protect you. WARNING!Deployed airbags and seat belt pretensioners cannot
protect you in another collision. Have the airbags
and seat belt pretensioners replaced by an autho-
rized dealer as soon as possible.

Canadian Programming/Gate Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter sig-
nals to 9 time-out 9 (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
designed to 9 time-out 9 in the same manner. If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties
programming a gate operator by using the 9 Program-
ming 9 procedures (regardless of where you live), replace
( Programming HomeLink ( step 3 with the following:
NOTE: If programming a garage door opener or gate
operator, it is advised to unplug the device during the
9 cycling 9 process to prevent possible overheating.
3. Continue to press and hold the HomeLink button
while you press and release every two seconds ( 9 cycle 9 )
your hand-held transmitter until the frequency signal has
successfully been accepted by HomeLink. (The indicator
light will flash slowly and then rapidly.) Proceed with
9 Programming 9 step four to complete.
Using HomeLink
To operate, simply press and release the programmed
HomeLink button. Activation will now occur for the
trained device (i.e. garage door opener, gate operator,
