GENERAL AUDIO INFORMATION
Radio frequencies:
AM and FM frequencies are established by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC). Those frequencies are:
AM: 530, 540 – 1700, 1710 kHz
FM: 87.7, 87.9 – 107.7, 107.9 MHz
Radio reception factors:
There are three factors that can affect radio reception:
•Distance/strength: The further you travel from a station, the weaker
the signal and the weaker the reception.
•Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, power lines, electric fences,
traffic lights and thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.
•Station overload: When you pass a broadcast tower, a stronger signal
may overtake a weaker one and play while the weak station frequency
is displayed.
Cassette/player care
Do:
•Tighten very loose tapes by inserting a pen or pencil into the hole and
turning the hub.
•Remove loose labels before inserting tapes.
•Allow tapes which have been subjected to extreme heat, humidity or
cold to reach a moderate temperature before playing.
•Clean the cassette player head with a cassette cleaning cartridge after
10–12 hours of play to maintain good sound/operation.
Don’t:
•Use cassettes that are longer than 90 minutes.
•Expose tapes to direct sunlight, extreme humidity, heat or cold.
•Leave tapes in the cassette player for a long time when not being
played.
CD/CD player care
Do:
•Handle discs by their edges only. Never touch the playing surface.
•Inspect discs before playing. Clean only with an approved CD cleaner
and wipe from the center out.

3. Disconnect the electrical
connector from the bulb by pulling
rearward and unlock the bulb by
rotating it counterclockwise.
Handle a halogen headlamp bulb carefully and keep out of
children’s reach. Grasp the bulb only by its plastic base and do
not touch the glass. The oil from your hand could cause the bulb to
break the next time the headlamps are operated.
Install the new bulb(s) in reverse order.
Replacing front parking/turn/sidemarker signal bulbs
1. Make sure the headlamp switch is in the OFF position and open the
hood.
2. Remove the two headlamp retaining pins to release the headlamp
assembly, then pull the headlamp assembly forward to expose the bulb
socket.

Heated outside mirrors(if equipped)
Both mirrors are heated
automatically to remove ice, mist
and fog when the rear window
defrost is activated.
Do not remove ice from the
mirrors with a scraper or
attempt to readjust the mirror
glass if it is frozen in place.
These actions could cause damage to the glass and mirrors.
Signal indicator mirrors (if equipped)
When the turn signal is activated,
the appropriate mirror will show a
blinking yellow arrow. When the
park lamps are on, the blinking
arrow will be dimmer.
The arrow provides an additional
warning to other drivers that your
vehicle is about to turn.
When the sliding door is open, the indicator in the appropriate mirror
will flash indicating people may be entering/exiting the vehicle.
Fold-away mirrors
Fold the side mirrors in carefully
when driving through a narrow
space, like an automatic car wash.

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.
