driver door.
2. Get out of the vehicle, close the door and activate the system by
locking the doors with the RKE
transmitter.
3. Wait for the security light to flash slowly.

Immobilizer Operation
This vehicle has PASS-Key®III+
(Personalized Automotive Security
System) theft-deterrent system.
PASS-Key
®III+ is a passive
theft-deterrent system.
The system is automatically armed
when the key is removed from the
ignition.
You do not have to manually arm or
disarm the system. The security light comes on if there
is a problem with arming or
disarming the theft-deterrent
system.
When the PASS-Key
®III+ system
senses that someone is using the
wrong key, it prevents the vehicle
from starting. Anyone using a
trial-and-error method to start the
vehicle will be discouraged because
of the high number of electrical key
codes.
When trying to start the vehicle if
the engine does not start and the
security light on the instrument
panel cluster comes on, there
may be a problem with your
theft-deterrent system. Turn the
ignition off and try again.

Universal Remote System
Programming
If there is one triangular Light
Emitting Diode (LED) indicator light
above the Universal Home Remote
buttons, follow the instructions
below.
This system provides a way to
replace up to three remote control
transmitters used to activate
devices such as garage door
openers, security systems, and
home automation devices.
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.

6. After Steps 1 through 5 havebeen 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:
