located below the climate control
system inside the front storage
bin, inside the center floor console,
and on the rear of the center floor

ACC/ACCESSORY mode, or until
the driver door is opened within
10 minutes of turning off the vehicle.
The power outlet located in the rear
cargo area is powered at all times.
Open the protective cap to use the
accessory power outlet.

Universal Remote System
Programming
If the vehicle has this feature,
you will see these buttons with one
LED indicator next to them in the
headliner. 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 with
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
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 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 www.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. Hold the end of yourhand-held transmitter about
3 to 8 cm (1 to 3 in) 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). 2. At the same time, press
and hold both the hand-held
transmitter button and one
of the three Universal Home
Remote buttons to be used
to operate the garage door.
Do not release the Universal
Home Remote button or the
hand-held transmitter button
until the indicator light changes
from a slowly to a rapidly
flashing light. You now may
release both buttons.
Some entry gates and
garage door openers may
require substitution of Step 2
with the procedure noted in
“Gate Operator and Canadian
Programming” later in this
section.
3. Press and hold for five seconds the newly-trained Universal
Home Remote button (the button selected in Step 2)
while observing the indicator
light and garage door activation..If the indicator light stays
on continuously or the
garage door starts to move
when the Universal Home
Remote button is pressed
and released, then the
programming is complete.
There is no need to
continue programming
Steps 4 through 6.
.If the Universal Home
Remote indicator
light blinks rapidly for
two seconds, then turns
to a constant light and the
garage door does not
move, continue with the
programming Steps 4
through 6.
It may be helpful to have
another person assist with
the remaining Steps 4
through 6.

“Learn”or“Smart” Buttons
4. After Steps 1 through 3 have been completed, locate the
“Learn” or“Smart” button inside
the garage on the garage door
opener receiver (motor-head
unit). The name and color
of the button may vary by
manufacturer. 5. Firmly press and release the
“Learn” or“Smart” button. After
you press this button, you will
have 30 seconds to complete
Step 6.
6. Immediately return to the vehicle. Firmly press and hold
for two seconds the Universal
Home Remote button, selected
in Step 2 to control the garage
door, and then release it. If the
garage door does not move or
the lamp on the garage door
opener receiver (motor-head
unit) does not flash, press and
hold the same button a second
time for two seconds, and then
release it. Again, if the door
does not move or the garage
door lamp does not flash, 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 1 of
“Programming
the Universal Home Remote
System.”
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 the 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.
