Turn Signals
Move the Multi-Function Control Lever up or down and
the arrows on each side of the instrument cluster flash to
show proper operation of the front and rear turn signal
lights. You can signal a lane change by moving the lever
partially up or down without moving beyond the detent.
If either light remains on and does not flash, or there is a
very fast flash rate, check for a defective outside lightbulb. If an indicator fails to light when the lever is
moved, it would suggest that the fuse or indicator bulb is
defective.
Highbeam/Lowbeam Select Switch
Push the Multi-Function Control Lever away from you to
switch the headlights to HIGH beam. Pull the Lever
toward you, to switch the headlights back to Low beam.

To Accelerate For Passing:
Depress the accelerator as you would normally. When the
pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the set speed.
Using Speed Control On Hills
NOTE:
The speed control system maintains speed up
and down hills. A slight speed change on moderate hills
is normal.
On steep hills, a greater speed loss or gain may occur so
it may be preferable to drive without speed control.
GARAGE DOOR OPENER (HomeLink)—IF
EQUIPPED
The HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver replaces up to
three remote controls (hand held transmitters) that oper-
ate devices such as garage door openers, motorized
gates, or home lighting. It triggers these devices at the
push of a button. The Universal Transceiver operates off
your vehicle’s battery and charging system; no batteries
are needed.
NOTE:The HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver is dis-
abled when the Vehicle Security Alarm is active.For additional information on HomeLink, call 1–800–
355–3515, or on the internet at www.homelink.com.
The three buttons for your garage door opener will be
located in the driver’s sunvisor. The training procedure is
the same regardless of the 3-button location.
Programming The Universal Transceiver
(HomeLink)
NOTE:
When programming a garage door opener, it is
advised to park outside the garage and with the engine
off. It is also recommended that you install a new battery

in the hand-held transmitter of the device being pro-
grammed. This will allow for quicker training and accu-
rate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
If your garage door opener (located in the garage) is
equipped with an antenna, make sure that the antenna is
hanging straight down.
1. Erase the factory test codes by pressing the two
outside buttons. Release the buttons when the light in the
Universal Transceiver begins to flash (about 20 seconds).
NOTE:Step 1 above does not have to be followed to
program additional hand held transmitters.
2. Choose one of the three Universal Transceiver buttons
to program. Position the end of your hand-held transmit-
ter 1-3 inches (3-8 cm) away from the HomeLink buttons
while keeping its indicator light in view.3. Simultaneously press and hold the HomeLink button
(that you want to train) and the hand-held transmitter
button.Do not release the buttons until Step 4 is
complete.
NOTE:Some gate operators and garage door openers
may require you to replace this Programming Step 3 with
procedures noted underGate Operator/Canadian Pro-
gramming.

4. The indicator light in the Universal Transceiver will
begin to flash, first slowly and then rapidly. The rapid
flashing indicates successful programming. If after 90
seconds the indicator light does not flash rapidly or goes
out, return to step 1 and repeat the procedure. To train the
other buttons, repeat steps 3 and 4. Be sure to keep your
hand held transmitters in case you need to retrain the
Universal Transceiver.
NOTE:To program the remaining two HomeLink but-
tons, begin withProgrammingStep Two. Do not repeat
Step One.
NOTE:If your garage door opener fails to respond to
the programmed HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver, and
your garage door opener is manufactured after 1995, it
may have a multiple security code system (rolling code
system). If your garage door opener is the “rolling code”
type, please proceed to the heading “Programming A
Rolling Code System.”
Programming A “Rolling Code” System
On garage door openers with the “Rolling Code” feature,
the transmitter code changes after each use to prevent the
copying of your code.
NOTE:The assistance of a second person may make the
following programming procedure quicker and easier.
1. Locate the training button on the garage door motor
head unit. The exact location and color of the button may
vary by garage door opener manufacturer. If you have
difficulty in locating the training button, check your
garage door opener manual, or call 1-800-355-3515 or, on
the Internet, at www.homelink.com.
2. Press and hold the training button on the garage door
opener head unit. This will activate the “training” light.
NOTE:After completing step 2, you have 30 seconds to
start step 3.
3. Return to the Universal Transceiver in the vehicle and
firmly press and release the garage door button. Press
and release the button a second time to complete the
UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 117

training process. Some garage door openers may require
you to do this procedure a third time to complete the
training.
Canadian Programming/Gate Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter sig-
nals totime-out(or quit) after several seconds of
transmission, which may not be long enough for
HomeLink to pick up the signal during programming.
Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are
designed totime-outin the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties
programming a gate operator by using theProgram-
mingprocedures (regardless of where you live),replace
Programming HomeLinkStep 3with the following:
3. Continue to press and hold the HomeLink button
while youpress and releaseyour hand-held transmitter
every two secondsuntil the frequency signal is accepted
successfully by HomeLink. The Universal Transceiver
light will flash slowly and then rapidly when the pro-
gramming is successful. Proceed withProgramming
HomeLinkStep 4to complete the procedure.
NOTE:When programming such a garage door opener
or gate, unplug the device to prevent possible damage to
the garage door or gate motor.
Using HomeLink
To operate, simply press and release the programmed
HomeLink button. Activation will now occur for the
trained device (i.e. garage door opener, gate operator,
security system, entry door lock, home/office lighting,
etc.). The light in the display shows that the signal is
being transmitted. For convenience, the hand-held trans-
mitter of the device may also be used at any time.
Erasing HomeLink Buttons
To erase programming from the three buttons (individual
buttons cannot be erased but can bereprogrammed-
note below), follow the step noted:
Press and hold the two outer HomeLink buttons (for
approximately 20 seconds). Release the buttons when the
indicator begins to flash rapidly. All three channels will
be cleared.

ELECTRICAL POWER OUTLETS
There are two 12-volt electrical outlets on this vehicle.
Both of the outlets are protected by a fuse.
The 12-volt power outlet next to the ash receiver tray (if
equipped with an optional Smoker’s Package) has power
available only when the ignition is on. This outlet will
also operate a conventional cigar lighter unit.
NOTE:If desired, the power outlet next to the ash
receiver tray (if equipped) can be converted by your
authorized dealer to provide power with the ignition
switch in the LOCK position.
The center console outlet is powered directly from the
battery (power available at all times). Items plugged into
this outlet may discharge the battery and/or prevent
engine starting.
Instrument Panel Power Outlet

Page 126 of 376

Electrical Outlet Use With Engine Off
CAUTION!
•Many accessories that can be plugged in draw
power from the vehicle’s battery, even when not
in use (i.e. cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if
plugged in long enough, the vehicle’s battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life
and/or prevent engine starting.
•Accessories that draw higher power (i.e. coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the
battery even more quickly. Only use these inter-
mittently and with greater caution.
•After the use of high power draw accessories, or
long periods of the vehicle not being started (with
accessories still plugged in), the vehicle must be
driven a sufficient length of time to allow the
generator to recharge the vehicle’s battery.
CIGAR LIGHTER AND ASH RECEIVER
The covered ash receiver is located in the instrument
panel below the climate control knobs.
The cigar lighter is located to the right of the ash receiver.
As a child safety precaution, the lighter only operates
with the ignition switch ON. It heats when pushed in and
pops out automatically when ready for use.To preserve
the heating element, do not hold the lighter in the
heating position.
Cup Holder Ash Receiver — If Equipped
Should your vehicle not come equipped with the instru-
ment panel cigar lighter and ash receiver, an optional ash
receiver is available from your authorized dealer and will
fit in either one of the center console cup holders.
