HOMELINKWIRELESS CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The HomeLink
Wireless 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 HomeLink
Wireless 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 HomeLink
Wireless 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
HomeLink
at: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 HomeLink
equipped vehicle
purchase). It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the
programmed Homelink
buttons be erased for security purposes, refer to
Programmingin this section.
Programming
Do not program HomeLink
with the vehicle parked in the garage.
Note:Your vehicle may require the ignition switch to be turned to the
ACC position for programming and/or operation of the HomeLink
.Itis
also recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLink
for quicker
training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
1. Press and hold the two outside
buttons releasing only when the
indicator light begins to flash after
20 seconds.Do notrepeat Step 1
to program additional hand-held
transmitters to the remaining two
HomeLink
buttons. This will erase
previously programmed hand-held
transmitter signals into HomeLink
.
2. Position the end of your
hand-held transmitter 1–3 inches (2–8 cm) away from the HomeLink

button you wish to program (located on your visor) while keeping the
indicator light in view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold
both the HomeLink
and hand-held
transmitter button.Do not release
the buttons until Step 4 has
been completed.
Some entry gates and garage door
openers may require you to replace
Step 3 with procedures noted in the
“Gate Operator and Canadian Programming” in this section for Canadian
residents.
4. The indicator light will flash slowly and then rapidly. Release both
buttons when the indicator light flashes rapidly. (The rapid flashing light
indicates acceptance of the hand-held transmitters’ radio frequency
signals.)

5. Press and hold the just-trained HomeLink
button and observe the
indicator light. If the light is constant, programming is complete and your
device should activate when the HomeLink
button is pressed and
released.Note:To program the remaining two HomeLink
buttons,
begin with Step 2 in the “Programming” section —do notrepeat Step 1.
Note:If the indicator light blinks rapidly for two seconds and then turns
to a continuous red, proceed with Steps 6 through 8 to complete
programming of a rolling code equipped device.
6. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in the garage,
locate the “learn” or “smart” button (usually near where the hanging
antenna wire is attached to the unit).
7. Press and release the “learn” or “smart” button. (The name and color
of the button may vary by manufacturer.)
Note:There are 30 seconds in which to initiate Step 8.
8. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two seconds and
release the HomeLink
button. Repeat the press/hold/release sequence
again, and, depending on the brand of the garage door opener (or other
rolling code equipped device), repeat this sequence a third time to
complete the programming.
HomeLink
should now activate your rolling code equipped device. To
program additional HomeLink
buttons begin with Step 2 in the
“Programming” section. For questions or comments, please contact
HomeLink atwww.homelink.comor1–800–355–3515.
Gate Operator & Canadian Programming
During programming, your
hand-held transmitter may
automatically stop transmitting —
not allowing enough time for
HomeLink
to accept the signal
from the hand-held transmitter.
After completing Steps 1 and 2
outlined in the“Programming”
section, replace Step 3 with the following:
Note:If programming a garage door opener or gate operator, it is
advised to unplug the device during the “cycling” process to prevent
overheating.

•Continue to press and hold the HomeLink
button (note Step 3 in the
“Programming” section) while you press and release —every two
seconds(“cycle”) your hand-held transmitter until the frequency
signal has been accepted by the HomeLink
. The indicator light will
flash slowly and then rapidly after HomeLink
accepts the radio
frequency signal.
•Proceed with Step 4 in the “Programming” section.
Operating the HomeLinkWireless Control System
To operate, simply press and release
the appropriate HomeLink
button.
Activation will now occur for the
trained product (garage door, gate
operator, security system, entry
door lock, or home or office lighting
etc.). For convenience, the
hand-held transmitter of the device
may also be used at any time. In the event that there are still
programming difficulties, contact HomeLink
atwww.homelink.comor
1–800–355–3515.
Erasing HomeLinkbuttons
To erase the three programmed
buttons (individual buttons cannot
be erased):
•Press and hold the two outer
HomeLink
buttons until the
indicator light begins to
flash-after 20 seconds. Release
both buttons. Do not hold for
longer that 30 seconds.
HomeLink
is now in the train (or
learning) mode and can be programmed at any time beginning with Step
2inthe“Programming”section.
Reprogramming a single HomeLinkbutton
To program a device to HomeLink
using a HomeLink
button previously
trained, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink
button.Do NOTrelease the
button.

ELECTRONIC COMPASS/TEMPERATURE DISPLAY WITHOUT
MESSAGE CENTER (IF EQUIPPED)
Outside air temperature
In vehicles without Dual Electronic
Automatic Temperature Control
(DATC), the outside temperature
display is contained in the
instrument cluster and displays all
the time. In vehicles with DATC, the
temperature displays in the climate control display.
To turn the display off or change the display from English to Metric see
your dealer.
Compass
The compass reading may be affected when you drive near large
buildings, bridges, power lines and powerful broadcast antennas.
Magnetic or metallic objects placed in, on or near the vehicle may also
affect compass accuracy.
Usually, when something affects the compass readings, the compass will
correct itself after a few days of operating your vehicle in normal
conditions. If the compass still appears to be inaccurate, a manual
calibration may be necessary. Refer toCompass calibration adjustment
in this section.
Most geographic areas (zones) have a magnetic north compass point that
varies slightly from the northerly direction on maps. This variation is four
degrees between adjacent zones and will become noticeable as the
vehicle crosses multiple zones. A correct zone setting will eliminate this
error. Refer toCompass zone adjustmentin this section.
