Programming the transceiver
1. The ignition switch must be turned to the "accessory" position (II) before programming the HomeLink Universal
Transceiver.
2. Begin by erasing all 3 factory default channels. Hold down the two outside buttons (the left and right buttons in the
illustration) on the HomeLink Universal Transceiver for about 20 seconds, until HomeLink's indicator light begins to
flash. Then release the buttons.
3. Hold your hand -held transmitter (garage door opener, for example) 2 to 5 in. (5 to 12 cm) away from the HomeLink
surface, keeping the indicator light in view. For placement questions, contact HomeLink toll-free 1-800-355-3515
(Internet: http://www.HomeLink.com
).
4. Using two hands, push and hold both your hand -held transmitter's button and the transceiver button you wish to
program. The indicator light will flash first slowly, then rapidly. Rapid flashing indicates that the HomeLink button has
been successfully programmed. Release both buttons.
5. If you are programming a rolling code-equipped device (e.g., garage door opener or entry door lock), refer to
"Programming rolling codes" on the next page to complete the programming process.
6. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to program the other two transceiver buttons. If, after several attempts, you are unable to
successfully train the HomeLink Universal Transceiver to learn your hand -held transmitter's signal, contact HomeLink
toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Internet: http://www.HomeLink.com
).

WARNING!
If you use HomeLink to open a garage door or gate, be sure no one is near the gate or door while it is in motion. Do
not use the HomeLink Universal Transceiver with any garage door opener that lacks safety "stop" and "reverse"
features as required by federal safety standards. (This includes any garage door opener model manufactured before
April 1, 1982) A garage door opener that cannot "detect" an object, signalling the door to "stop" and "reverse" does
not meet current federal safety standards. Using a garage door opener without these features increases the risk of
serious injury or death. For more information on this matter, call toll-free 1-800-355-3515.

Home Link® Universal Transceiver (option)
Canadian residents:
During programming, your hand -held transmitter may automatically stop transmitting. To successfully train
HomeLink, continue to hold the HomeLink button. At the same time, repeatedly press and hold your hand -held
transmitter's button at two-second intervals until HomeLink has learned your transmitter's code. The HomeLink
indicator light will flash first slowly, and then rapidly to indicate that the button has been successfully programmed.
Determining if your garage door uses a rolling code
Determine, in one of the following ways, if your garage door uses a rolling code system and is manufactured after
1996:
Refer to the garage door opener owner's manual for verification.

ECC functions
1. Auto -On/Off
The AUTO function automatically regulates climate control to maintain the desired temperature. The
automatic function controls heating, air conditioning, blower speed, recirculation, and air distribution.
When the retractable hard top is down, warm or cool air from the climate system is directed downward in the
passenger compartment, and the climate system's effect is limited if it is not possible to compensate for the ambient
temperature.
If you select one or more manual functions, the remaining functions continue to be controlled automatically. All
manual settings are switched off when AUTO is switched on. AUTO CLIMATE is shown in the display.
2. Blower speed
The blower speed can be increased or decreased by turning the knob. The blower speed is regulated
automatically if AUTO is selected. The previously set blower speed is disconnected.
NOTE: If the knob is turned counterclockwise and the blower indication in the display goes out, the blower and the air
conditioning are switched off. The display shows the blower symbol and OFF.
3. Recirculation
This function can be used to shut out exhaust fumes, smoke, etc from the passenger compartment. The air
in the passenger compartment is then recirculated, i.e. no air from outside the car is taken into the car when this
function is activated.
