HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
Introduction
HomeLink1 is a system that can be programmed to learn the codes of three different remote controlled-devices (for
example, a garage door opener, remote lighting, entry gate). HomeLink's sun visor-mounted transceiver, powered by
your car's electrical system, may then be used in place of your handheld remote controls. The HomeLink transceiver
consists of three programmable buttons and an indicator light.
1HomeLink is a registered trademark Johnson Controls, Intl.
® JCI, All rights reserved
NOTE
For your security, the HomeLink Universal Transceiver is designed to not function if you lock your car from the
outside.
Retain the original transmitter(s) for future programming procedures (for example, if you purchase a new vehicle).
For your own security, erase all programmed buttons on the HomeLink Universal Transceiver when you sell your
vehicle.
Metallic sun protection films should not be used on any windows in a vehicle 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 the driver's door has been opened without
switching on the vehicle's ignition.
Press the programmed HomeLink button to activate the garage door, driveway gate, security lightning, home security
system etc. Your original hand -held transmitters may, of course, be used at any time.
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.

1. Blower
The blower speed can be increased or decreased by turning the knob. If the knob is turned counterclockwise and the
indicator light in the display goes out, the blower and the air conditioning are switched off. The display shows the
blower symbol and OFF.
2. 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. Recirculation (together with the air conditioning system) cools the passenger compartment more quickly in
very warm weather. If the air in the car recirculates for too long, there is a risk of condensation

During a 10 minute period after the doors have been unlocked if the door remains open.
If the door is closed and the ignition key is not yet in the ignition, or if the key is in position 0, the seat can be
adjusted or during a period of 40 seconds. The power passenger's seat can only be adjusted if the ignition key is in
position I or II, or if the engine is running.

Seat adjustment controls 1, 2, 3, and 4 on the side of the seat can be used to move the seat to the position of your
choice.

3. Move this section of the control up or down to raise/lower the rear section of the seat cushion.
4. Backrest tilt.
NOTE
The power seats have an overload protector that activates if a seat is blocked by any object. If this occurs, switch off
the ignition (key in position 0) and wait for approximately 20 seconds before operating the seat again.
Emergency stop
If the seat inadvertently begins to move, press any of the buttons to stop the seat.
Programming the seat memory, driver's seat only (option)
ProCarManuals.com

Three different seating positions can be stored in the seat's memory. The memory buttons are located on the outboard
side of the driver's seat (see the illustration). The following example explains how memory button 1 can be
programmed. Buttons 2 and 3 can be programmed in the same way.
To program (store) a seat position in memory button 1:

2. Press and hold down the "M" (Memory) button.
3. With the "M" button depressed, press memory button 1 to store the seat's current position.
To move the seat to the position that it was in when memory button 1 was programmed, press and hold down button 1
until the seat stops moving.
As a safety precaution, the seat will stop automatically if the button is released before the seat has reached the preset
position.

The remote control transmitter can also be equipped with an optional function that controls the electrically operated
driver's seat in the following way:
1. Adjust the seat to the desired position.
2. When you leave the car, lock it using the remote control.
3. The next time the driver's door is unlocked with the same remote control and that door is opened within 2 minutes,
the driver's seat and side door mirrors will automatically move to the position that they were in when the doors were
most recently locked with the same remote control.
NOTE
The memory function in the remote control operates independently of the memory function in the seat.
