proper mirror performance (i.e. hangtags, parking stickers, aftermarket
window-tint etc.).

auto-dimming feature OFF or return
it to AUTO. When the auto-dimming

in the AUTO position, it will return
to the normal high reflective state
whenever the vehicle is placed in

When programming your HomeLinktWireless Control System to
a garage door or gate, be sure that people and objects are out of
the way to prevent potential harm or damage.
Do not use the HomeLinktWireless Control System with any garage
door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by
U.S. federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener
model manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door which cannot
detect an object, signaling the door to stop and reverse, does not meet
current U.S. federal safety standards. For more information, contact
HomeLinktat:www.homelink.comor1±800±355±3515.

The DTE function will display LOW FUEL LEVEL and sound a tone for
one second when you have approximately 80 km (50 miles) to empty. If
you RESET this warning message, this display and tone will return
within 10 minutes.

economy is reinitialized to a factory default value if the battery is
disconnected.
