camera and its position and
mounting angle checked at your
dealer/retailer.
There are extreme temperature
changes.
The rear vision camera system
display in the rearview mirror may
turn off or not appear as expected
due to one of the following
conditions. If this occurs the left
indicator light on the mirror will ash.
A slow ash may indicate a loss of
video signal, or no video signal
present during the reverse cycle.
A fast ash may indicate that
the display has been on for the
maximum allowable time during a
reverse cycle, or the display has
reached an Over Temperature
limit.
The fast ash conditions are used
to protect the video device from
high temperature conditions.
Once conditions return to normal
the device will reset and the green
indicator will stop ashing.
During any of these fault conditions,
the display will be blank and the
indicator will continue to ash as long
as the vehicle is in R (Reverse) or
until the conditions return to normal.
Pressing and holding
zwhen the
left indicator light is ashing will turn
off the video display along with
the left indicator light.

How OnStar Service Works
The OnStar system can record
and transmit vehicle information.
This information is automatically
sent to an OnStar Call Center when
the OnStar button is pressed, the
emergency button is pressed, or if
the airbags or AACN system deploy.
This information usually includes
the vehicle’s GPS location and,
in the event of a crash, additional
information regarding the crash that
the vehicle was involved in (e.g. the
direction from which the vehicle was
hit). When the Virtual Advisor feature
of OnStar Hands-Free Calling is
used, the vehicle also sends OnStar
the vehicle’s GPS location so they
can provide services where it is
located.OnStar service cannot work
unless the vehicle is in a place
where OnStar has an agreement
with a wireless service provider for
service in that area. OnStar service
also cannot work unless the vehicle
is in a place where the wireless
service provider OnStar has hired
for that area has coverage, network
capacity and reception when the
service is needed, and technology
that is compatible with the OnStar
service. Not all services are available
everywhere, particularly in remote
or enclosed areas, or at all times.
Location information about the
vehicle is only available if the GPS
satellite signals are unobstructed
and available.
The vehicle must have a working
electrical system, including adequate
battery power, for the OnStar
equipment to operate. There areother problems OnStar cannot
control that may prevent OnStar
from providing OnStar service at
any particular time or place. Some
examples are damage to important
parts of the vehicle in a crash, hills,
tall buildings, tunnels, weather or
wireless phone network congestion.
Your Responsibility
Increase the volume of the radio if
the OnStar advisor cannot be heard.
If the light next to the OnStar buttons
is red, the system may not be
functioning properly. Press the
OnStar button and request a vehicle
diagnostic. If the light appears clear
(no light is appearing), your OnStar
subscription has expired and all
services have been deactivated.
Press the OnStar button to conrm
that the OnStar equipment is active.

Do not use the Universal Home
Remote with any garage door
opener that does not have the stop
and reverse feature. This includes
any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982.
Read the instructions completely
before attempting to program the
Universal Home Remote. Because of
the steps involved, it may be helpful
to have another person available to
assist you in the programming the
Universal Home Remote.
Keep the original hand-held
transmitter for use in other vehicles
as well as for future Universal Home
Remote programming. It is also
recommended that upon the sale
of the vehicle, the programmed
Universal Home Remote buttons
should be erased for security
purposes. See “Erasing Universal
Home Remote Buttons” later in this
section.When programming a garage
door, park outside of the garage.
Park directly in line with and facing
the garage door opener motor-head
or gate motor-head. Be sure that
people and objects are clear of the
garage door or gate that is being
programmed.
It is recommended that a new
battery be installed in your hand-held
transmitter for quicker and more
accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency signal.
Programming the Universal
Home Remote System
For questions or help programming
the Universal Home Remote System,
call 1-800-355-3515 or go to
homelink.com.
Programming a garage door opener
involves time-sensitive actions, so
read the entire procedure before
starting. Otherwise, the device will
time out and the procedure will have
to be repeated.To program up to three devices:
1. From inside the vehicle, press
and hold down the two outside
buttons at the same time,
releasing only when the Universal
Home Remote indicator light
begins to ash, after 20 seconds.
This step will erase the factory
settings or all previously
programmed buttons.
Do not hold down the buttons for
longer than 30 seconds and do
not repeat this step to program
the remaining two Universal
Home Remote buttons.

2. Hold the end of your hand-held
transmitter about 1 to 3 inches
(3 to 8 cm) away from the
Universal Home Remote buttons
while keeping the indicator light in
view. The hand-held transmitter
was supplied by the manufacturer
of your garage door opener
receiver (motor head unit).
3. At the same time, press and hold
both the Universal Home Remote
button to be used to control the
garage door and the hand-held
transmitter button. Do not release
the Universal Home Remote
button or the hand-held
transmitter button until Step 4
has been completed.
Some entry gates and
garage door openers may
require substitution of Step 3
with the procedure noted in
“Gate Operator and Canadian
Programming” later in this
section.4. The indicator light on the
Universal Home Remote will
ash slowly at rst and then
rapidly after Universal Home
Remote successfully receives
the frequency signal from the
hand-held transmitter. Release
both buttons.
5. Press and hold the newly-trained
Universal Home Remote button
and observe the indicator light.
If the indicator light stays on
continuously, the programming is
complete and the garage door
should move when the Universal
Home Remote button is pressed
and released. There is no need to
continue programming Steps 6
through 8.
If the Universal Home Remote
indicator light blinks rapidly
for two seconds and then turns
to a constant light, continue
with the programming Steps 6
through 8.It may be helpful to have another
person assist with the remaining
steps.
6. After Steps 1 through 5 have
been completed, locate inside
the garage the garage door
opener receiver (motor-head
unit). Locate the “Learn” or
“Smart” button. The name and
color of the button may vary
by manufacturer.

7. Firmly press and release the
“Learn” or “Smart” button.
After you press this button,
you will have 30 seconds
to complete Step 8.
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
System.” Do not repeat Step 1,as this will erase all previous
programming from 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
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.
