HOMELINKWIRELESS CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The HomeLinkWireless Control System, located on the driver’s visor,
provides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held transmitters
with a single built-in device. This feature will learn the radio frequency
codes of most transmitters to operate garage doors, entry gate operators,
security systems, entry door locks, and home or office lighting.
When programming your HomeLinkWireless 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 HomeLinkWireless 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
HomeLinkat:www.homelink.comor1–800–355–3515.
Retain the original transmitter for use in other vehicles as well as for
future programming procedures (i.e. new HomeLinkequipped vehicle
purchase). It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the
programmed Homelinkbuttons be erased for security purposes, refer to
Programmingin this section.

The cargo doors and liftgate should be closed before driving your
vehicle. Make sure the liftgate and/or the cargo doors are closed
to prevent exhaust fumes from being drawn into the vehicle. Leaving
the liftgate and/or the cargo doors open could cause serious damage to
the TriDoors and its components. If you must drive with the cargo
doors and liftgate window open, keep the vents open so outside air
comes into the vehicle.
LUGGAGE RACK
Maximum load is 200 lb (90 kg) on the roof rack structure, or 100 lbs (45
kg) on the roof panel rails. Distribute the load equally on the cross bars.
To adjust the cross-bar position:
1. Release the latch at both ends of
the cross-bar (both cross-bars are
adjustable).
2. Slide cross-bar to the desired
location.
3. Tighten the latch at both ends of
the cross-bar.
To remove the cross-bar assembly
from the roof rack side rails:
1. Loosen the latch at both ends of
the cross-bar (both cross-bars are
adjustable).
2. Slide cross-bar to the end of the
rail.
3. Press down on the locking feature
inside the side rail and slide the cross-bar over it.
4. Slide the assemblies off the end.
Vehicles with a higher center of gravity such as utility and
four-wheel drive vehicles handle differently than vehicles with a
lower center of gravity. Utility and four-wheel drive vehicles are not
designed for cornering at speeds as high as passenger cars any more than
low-slung sport cars are designed to perform satisfactorily under off-road
conditions. Avoid sharp turns, excessive speed and abrupt maneuvers in
these vehicles. Failure to drive cautiously could result in an increase risk
of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and death.
