ccident were to cause the airbag

NOTE
l For your security, the HomeLink Universal Transceiver is designed to not\
function if you lock your car from the
outside.
l Retain the original transmitter(s) for future programming procedures (\
for example, if you purchase a new
vehicle).
l For your own security, erase all programmed buttons on the HomeLink Univ\
ersal Transceiver when you sell your
vehicle.
l Metallic sun protection films should not be used on any windows in a veh\
icle equipped with HomeLink Universal
Transceiver. This could interfere with the transceivers function.
Operating the HomeLink Universal Transceiver
Once programmed, the HomeLink Universal Transceiver can be used in place\
of your handheld transmitters.
NOTE
The HomeLink universal transceiver will function for 30 minutes after th\
e driver's door has been opened without
switching on the vehicle's ignition.
Press the programmed HomeLink button to activate the garage door, drivew\
ay gate, security lightning, home security
system etc.
Your original hand-held transmitters may, of course, be used at any time\
.
WARNING
l If you use HomeLink to open a garage door or gate, be sure no one is nea\
r the gate or door while it is in motion.
l Do not use the HomeLink Universal Transceiver with any garage door opene\
r that lacks safety "stop" and
"reverse" features as required by federal safety standards. (This inclu\
des any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door opener that cannot "d\
etect" an object, signalling the door to
"stop" and "reverse" does not meet current federal safety standards. Usi\
ng a garage door opener without these
features increases the risk of serious injury or death. For more informa\
tion on this matter, call toll-free 1-800-355-
3515. (Internet:
www.HomeLink.com).
Programming the transceiver for the first time (U.S. residents)
1. For first time training, press and hold the two outer HomeLink button\
s, releasing only when the HomeLink
indicator light begins to flash after 20 seconds. (Do not perform this \
step when training the additional HomeLink
buttons.)
2. Position the hand-held transmitter 1-3 inches away from the HomeLink \
surface

(Shiftlock). Manual transmission: the clutch must be fully depressed.
3. The vehicle is equipped with an autostart feature. Without touching t\
he throttle pedal, turn the key to
position III and release it. The starter motor will then operate automat\
ically (for up to ten seconds) until
the engine starts. If the engine fails to start, repeat this step.
NOTE
After a cold start, idle speed may be noticeably higher than normal for \
a short period. This is done to
help bring components in the emission control system to their normal ope\
rating temperature as quickly
as possible, which enables them to control emissions and help reduce the\
vehicle's impact on the
environment.
4. To release the gear selector from the Park (P) position, the engine must be running (or the ignition key
must be in position II) and the brake pedal must be depressed.
5. Select the desired gear. On models with an automatic transmission, th\
e gear engages after a very slight
delay which is especially noticeable when selecting R.
NOTE
l Immobilizer: If two of the keys to your vehicle are close together, e.g., on the sa\
me key ring when
you try to start the vehicle, this could cause interference in the immob\
ilizer system and result in the
vehicle not starting. If this should occur, remove one of the keys from \
the key ring before trying to start
the vehicle again.
l Keylock: Models equipped an automatic transmission have a keylock system. When \
the engine is
switched off, the gear selector must be in the Park (P) position before the key can be removed from the
ignition switch.
l When starting in cold weather, the transmission may shift up at slightly\
higher engine speeds than
normal until the automatic transmission fluid reaches normal operating t\
emperature.
l Do not race a cold engine immediately after starting. Oil flow may not r\
each some lubrication points
fast enough to prevent engine damage.
WARNING
Volvo's floor mats are specially manufactured for your car. They must be\
firmly secured in the clips on
the floor so that they cannot slide and become trapped under the pedals \
on the driver's side.
