replace driver vision. RVC does not:
.Detect objects that are outside the camera's
field of view, below the bumper, or underneath
the vehicle.
.Detect children, pedestrians, bicyclists,
or pets.
(Continued)
WARNING: (Continued)
Do not back the vehicle by only looking at the
RVC screen, or use the screen during longer,
higher speed backing maneuvers or where there
could be cross-traffic. Your judged distances using
the screen will differ from actual distances.
So if you do not use proper care before backing
up, you could hit a vehicle, child, pedestrian,
bicyclist, or pet, resulting in vehicle damage,
injury, or death. Even though the vehicle has the
RVC system, always check carefully before
backing up by checking behind and around
the vehicle.

Universal Home Remote System
Operation (With Three Round LED)
This vehicle may have the Universal Home RemoteSystem. If there are three round Light EmittingDiode (LED) indicator lights above the UniversalHome Remote buttons, follow the instructions below.
This system provides a way to replace up tothree remote control transmitters used to activatedevices such as garage door openers, securitysystems, and home automation devices.
3-55

Do not use this system with any garage door openerthat does not have the stop and reverse feature. Thisincludes any garage door opener model manufacturedbefore April 1, 1982.
Read the instructions completely before attempting toprogram the transmitter. Because of the steps involved,it may be helpful to have another person assist withprogramming the transmitter.
Be sure to keep the original remote control transmitterfor use in other vehicles, as well as, for futureprogramming. Only the original remote controltransmitter is needed for Fixed Code programming.The programmed buttons should be erased when thevehicle is sold or the lease ends. See“ErasingUniversal Home Remote Buttons”later in this section.
Park the vehicle outside of the garage whenprogramming a garage door. Be sure that people andobjects are clear of the garage door or gate that isbeing programmed.
Programming Universal Home
Remote—Rolling Code
For questions or help programming the Universal HomeRemote System, call 1-866-572-2728 or go tolearcar2u.com.
Most garage door openers sold after 1996 areRolling Code units.
Programming a garage door opener involvestime-sensitive actions, so read the entire procedurebefore starting. Otherwise, the device will time out andthe procedure will have to be repeated.
To program up to three devices:
1. From inside the vehicle, press the two outsidebuttons at the same time for one to two seconds,and immediately release them.
3-56

2. Locate in the garage, the garage door openerreceiver (motor-head unit). Locate the“Learn”or“Smart”button. It can usually be found wherethe hanging antenna wire is attached to themotor-head unit and may be a colored button.Press this button. After pressing this button,complete the following steps in less than30 seconds.
3. Immediately return to the vehicle. Press and holdthe Universal Home Remote button that will beused to control the garage door until the garagedoor moves. The indicator light, above the selectedbutton, should slowly blink. This button may needto be held for up to 20 seconds.
4. Immediately, within one second, release the buttonwhen the garage door moves. The indicator lightwill blink rapidly until programming is complete.
5. Press and release the same button again.The garage door should move, confirming thatprogramming is successful and complete.
To program another Rolling Code device such as anadditional garage door opener, a security device,or home automation device, repeat Steps 1 through 5,choosing a different function button in Step 3 than whatwas used for the garage door opener.
If these instructions do not work, the garage dooropener is probably a Fixed Code unit. Follow theProgramming instructions that follow for a Fixed Codegarage door opener.

Programming Universal Home
Remote—Fixed Code
For questions or help programming the Universal HomeRemote System, call 1-866-572-2728 or go tolearcar2u.com.
Most garage door openers sold before 1996 are FixedCode units.
Programming a garage door opener involvestime-sensitive actions, so read the entire procedurebefore starting. Otherwise, the device will time out andthe procedure will have to be repeated.
To program up to three devices:
1. To verify that the garage door opener is a FixedCode unit, remove the battery cover on the handheld transmitter supplied by the manufacturer ofthe garage door opener motor. If there are a rowof dip switches similar to the graphic above, thegarage door opener is a Fixed Code unit. If youdo not see a row of dip switches, return to theprevious section for Programming Universal HomeRemote–Rolling Code.
3-58

Your hand held transmitter can have betweeneight to 12 dip switches depending on the brandof transmitter.
The garage door opener receiver (motor head unit)could also have a row of dip switches that can beused when programming the Universal HomeRemote. If the total number of switches on themotor head and hand held transmitter are different,or if the dip switch settings are different, use thedip switch settings on the motor head unit toprogram the Universal Home Remote. The motorhead dip switch settings can also be used whenthe original hand held transmitter is not available.
Example of Eight Dip Switches with Two Positions
3-59

Example of Eight Dip Switches with Three Positions
The panel of switches might not appear exactlyas they do in the examples above, but they shouldbe similar.
The switch positions on the hand-held transmittercould be labeled, as follows:
.A switch in the up position could be labeledas“Up,”“+,”or“On.”
.A switch in the down position could be labeledas“Down,”“!,”or“Off.”
.A switch in the middle position could be labeledas“Middle,”“0,”or“Neutral.”
2. Write down the eight to 12 switch settings fromleft to right as follows:
.When a switch is in the up position,write“Left.”
.When a switch is in the down position,write“Right.”
.If a switch is set between the up and downposition, write“Middle.”
The switch settings written down in Step 2 nowbecome the button strokes to be entered intothe Universal Home Remote in Step 4. Be sureto enter the switch settings written down inStep 2, in order from left to right, into theUniversal Home Remote, when completingStep 4.
3. From inside your vehicle, first firmly press allthree buttons at the same time for aboutthree seconds. Release the buttons to put theUniversal Home Remote into programming mode.
