8. Immediately return to the vehicle. Firmly press and
hold the Universal Home Remote button, chosen in
Step 3 to control the garage door, for two seconds,
and then release it. If the garage door does not
move, press and hold the same button a second time
for two seconds, and then release it. Again, if the
door does not move, press and hold the same button
a third time for two seconds, and then release.
The Universal Home Remote should now activate
the garage door.
To program the remaining two Universal Home Remote
buttons, begin with Step 2 of “Programming the

Universal Home Remote buttons.
Gate Operator and Canadian
Programming
If you have questions or need help programming the
Universal Home Remote System, call 1-800-355-3515 or
go to www.homelink.com.
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter
signals to time out or quit after several seconds of
transmission. This may not be long enough for Universal
Home Remote to pick up the signal during programming.
Similarly, some U.S. gate operators are manufactured
to time out in the same manner.If you live in Canada, or you are having difficulty
programming a gate operator or garage door opener by
using the “Programming Universal Home Remote”
procedures, regardless of where you live, replace
Step 3 under “Programming Universal Home Remote”
with the following:
Continue to press and hold the Universal Home Remote
button while you press and release every two seconds
(cycle) the hand-held transmitter button until the
frequency signal has been successfully accepted by the
Universal Home Remote. The Universal Home Remote
indicator light will ash slowly at rst and then rapidly.
Proceed with Step 4 under “Programming Universal
Home Remote” to complete.
Using Universal Home Remote
Press and hold the appropriate Universal Home Remote
button for at least half of a second. The indicator light
will come on while the signal is being transmitted.

Headlamps on Reminder
A reminder tone sounds when the headlamps or
parking lamps are manually turned on, if the driver’s
door is open and the ignition is in LOCK/OFF or
ACC/ACCESSORY. To turn the tone off, turn the knob
all the way counterclockwise.
In the automatic mode, the headlamps turn off once the
ignition key is in LOCK/OFF.
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier for
others to see the front of your vehicle during the day.
Fully functional DRL are required on all vehicles
rst sold in Canada.
The DRL system makes the headlamps come on at
reduced brightness when the following conditions
are met:
The ignition is on.
The exterior lamps knob is in automatic
headlamp mode.
The light sensor detects daytime light.
The transmission is not in P (Park).When the DRL are on, only the headlamps will be on.
The taillamps, sidemarker, instrument panel lights
and other lamps will not be on.
When it begins to get dark, the headlamps automatically
switch from DRL to the regular headlamps.
Automatic Headlamp System
When it is dark enough outside, the Automatic
Headlamp System turns on the headlamps when
the vehicle is started and after the transmission
has been shifted out of the P (Park) position.
The headlamps, taillamps, sidemarker, and parking
lamps will come on. The instrument panel lights
and radio lights will also turn on at normal brightness.
Once on, the system remains on during these conditions
even if the vehicle is shifted back into P (Park).
The vehicle has a light sensor on the top of the
instrument panel. Do not cover the sensor or the system
may come on whenever the ignition is on and the
vehicle is shifted out of the P (Park) position.
The system could also turn on the lamps when driving
through a parking garage, heavy overcast weather
or a tunnel. This is normal.
3-14

There is a delay in the transition between the daytime
and nighttime operation of the Daytime Running
Lamps (DRL) and the automatic headlamp systems,
so that driving under bridges or bright overhead street
lights does not affect the system. The DRL and
automatic headlamp system are only affected when the
light sensor sees a change in lighting lasting longer
than the delay.
If the vehicle is started in a dark garage, the automatic
headlamp system comes on after the transmission
is shifted out of P (Park). Once the vehicle leaves the
garage, it takes about one minute for the automatic
headlamp system to change to DRL if it is light outside.
During that delay, the instrument panel cluster might
not be as bright as usual. Make sure the instrument
panel brightness control is in the full bright position.
If the vehicle is running and the automatic headlamp
system is already on, it can be turned off by turning and
releasing the headlamp control at the off position.
The automatic headlamp system stays off until you turn
and release the headlamp control at the off position
again. SeeHeadlamps on page 3-13.Fog Lamps
The fog lamp button is located on the instrument panel
to the right of the exterior lamps knob. Use the fog
lamps for better vision in foggy or misty conditions.
The ignition must be in ON/RUN for the fog lamps
to work.
#:Press to turn the fog lamps on or off. An indicator
light turns on near the button while the fog lamps
are on. Fog lamps turn off whenever the high-beam
headlamps are on.
Some localities have laws that require the headlamps
to be on along with the fog lamps.

This light should come on
when the ignition is on, but
the engine is not running,
as a check to show it
working. If it does not,
have the vehicle serviced
by your dealer/retailer.
If the check engine light comes on and stays on, while
the engine is running, this indicates that there is an
OBD II problem and service is required.
Malfunctions often are indicated by the system before
any problem is apparent. Being aware of the light
can prevent more serious damage to the vehicle.
This system assists the service technician in correctly
diagnosing any malfunction.Notice:If the vehicle is continually driven with
this light on, after a while, the emission controls
might not work as well, the vehicle’s fuel economy
might not be as good, and the engine might not
run as smoothly. This could lead to costly repairs
that might not be covered by the vehicle warranty.
Notice:Modications made to the engine,
transmission, exhaust, intake, or fuel system of
the vehicle or the replacement of the original tires
with other than those of the same Tire Performance
Criteria (TPC) can affect the vehicle’s emission
controls and can cause this light to come on.
Modications to these systems could lead to
costly repairs not covered by the vehicle warranty.
This could also result in a failure to pass a
required Emission Inspection/Maintenance test.
SeeAccessories and Modifications on page 5-3.

leave StabiliTrak on. However, you should turn
StabiliTrak off if your vehicle gets stuck in sand, mud,
ice, or snow and you want to rock your vehicle to
attempt to free it, or if you are driving in extreme off-road
conditions and require more wheel spin. SeeIf Your
Vehicle is Stuck in Sand, Mud, Ice, or Snow on
page 4-30. To turn the StabiliTrak system back on,
press the StabiliTrak button again.
There are several conditions that can cause this
message to appear.
The message may display if the brake system
warning light is on. SeeBrake System Warning
Light on page 3-35.
The message displays if the vehicle is shifted
into 4LO.
The message turns off as soon as the conditions that
caused the message to be displayed are no longer
present.
