Bounce back override:To override bounce back, within 2 seconds after
reaching bounce back position, if the switch is held in the close position
the moon roof will close with a 20±25 percent increase of closing force
before it will bounce back again. If the switch is released before the
moon roof reaches fully closed position, the moon roof will stop. For
example: Bounce Back Override can be used to overcome the resistance
of ice on the moon roof or seals.
To vent:
²To tilt the moon roof into the vent position (when the glass panel is
closed), press and hold the front portion of the control.
²To close the moon roof from the vent position, press and hold the rear
portion of the control until the glass panel stops moving.
The moon roof has a sliding shade that can be opened or closed when
the glass panel is shut. To close the shade, pull it toward the front of the
vehicle.
Accessory delay:
With accessory delay, the window switches, audio system, and moon roof
(if equipped) may be used for up to 10 minutes after the ignition switch
is turned to the OFF position or until either front door is opened.
HOMELINKTWIRELESS CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The HomeLinktWireless Control System, located on the overhead
console, 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 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.

Retain the original transmitter for use in other vehicles as well as for
future programming procedures (i.e. new HomeLinktequipped vehicle
purchase). It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the
programmed Homelinktbuttons be erased for security purposes, refer to
Programmingin this section.
Programming
Do not program HomeLinktwith the vehicle parked in the garage.
Note:Some vehicles may require the ignition switch to be turned to the
second (or ªACCº) position for programming and/or operation of the
HomeLinkt. It is also recommended that a new battery be placed in the
hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLinktfor
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
HomeLinktbuttons. This will erase
previously programmed hand-held
transmitter signals into HomeLinkt.
2. Position the end of your
hand-held transmitter 1±3 inches
(2±8 cm) away from the HomeLinktbutton you wish to program
(located on your overhead console) while keeping the indicator light in
view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold
both the HomeLinktand 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
ªGate Operator and Canadian
Programmingº 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 HomeLinktbutton and observe the
indicator light. If the light is constant, programming is complete and your
device should activate when the HomeLinktbutton is pressed and
released.Note:To program the remaining two HomeLinktbuttons,
begin with Step 2 in the ªProgrammingº section Ðdo notrepeat Step 1.
Note:If the indicator light blinks rapidly for two seconds and then turns
to a continuous light, 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 ªlearnº or ªsmartº button (usually near where the hanging
antenna wire is attached to the unit).
7. Press and release the ªlearnº or ªsmartº 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 HomeLinktbutton. 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.
HomeLinktshould now activate your rolling code equipped device. To
program additional HomeLinktbuttons begin with Step 2 in the
ªProgrammingº 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 Ð
not allowing enough time for
HomeLinktto accept the signal
from the hand-held transmitter.
After completing Steps 1 and 2
outlined in theªProgrammingº
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 ªcyclingº process to prevent
overheating.
²Continue to press and hold the HomeLinktbutton (note Step 3 in the
ªProgrammingº section) while you press and release Ðevery two
seconds(ªcycleº) your hand-held transmitter until the frequency
signal has been accepted by the HomeLinkt. The indicator light will
flash slowly and then rapidly after HomeLinktaccepts the radio
frequency signal.
²Proceed with Step 4 in the ªProgrammingº section.
Operating the HomeLinkTWireless Control System
To operate, simply press and release
the appropriate HomeLinktbutton.
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
HomeLinktatwww.homelink.comor1±800±355±3515.

both buttons. Do not hold for
longer that 30 seconds.
HomeLinktis now in the train (or
learning) mode and can be programmed at any time beginning with Step
2intheªProgrammingºsection.
Reprogramming a single HomeLinkTbutton
To program a device to HomeLinktusing a HomeLinktbutton previously
trained, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLinktbutton.Do NOTrelease the
button.
2. The indicator light will begin to flash after 20 seconds. Without
