a convenient way to consolidate the func-
tions of up to three individual hand-held
transmitters into one built-in device.
HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver:
. Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF)
devices such as garage doors, gates,
home and office lighting, entry door
locks and security systems.
. Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No
separate batteries are required. If the
vehicle’s battery is discharged or is
disconnected, HomeLink
®will retain all
programming.
Once HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver is
programmed, retain the original transmit-
ter for future programming procedures
(Example: new vehicle purchases). Upon
sale of the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink
®Universal Transceiver buttons
should be erased for security purposes.
For additional information, see “Program-
ming HomeLink
®” (P.2-60).
WARNING
. Do not use HomeLink®Universal Trans-
ceiver with any garage door opener that
lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by federal safety standards.
(These standards became effective for
opener models manufactured after April
1, 1982.) A garage door opener which
cannot detect an object in the path of a
closing garage door and then automati-
cally stop and reverse, does not meet
current federal safety standards. Using a
garage door opener without these fea-
tures increases the risk of serious injury
or death.
. During programming procedure, your
garage door or security gate may open
or close. Make sure that people and
objects are clear of the garage door,
gate, etc. that you are programming.
. Your vehicle’s engine should be turned
off while programming HomeLink

versal Transceiver.

WARNING
.Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat belts,
this provides greater safety in the event
of an accident by helping to prevent
persons from being thrown from the
vehicle. This also helps keep children
and others from unintentionally opening
the doors, and will help keep out
intruders.
. Before opening any door, always look for
and avoid oncoming traffic.
. Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly
activate switches or controls. Unat-
tended children could become involved
in serious accidents.

WARNING
.Radio waves could adversely affect
electric medical equipment. Those who
use a pacemaker should contact the
electric medical equipment manufacturer
for the possible influences before use.
. The Intelligent Key transmits radio
waves when the buttons are pushed.
The FAA advises that the radio waves
may affect aircraft navigation and com-
munication systems. Do not operate the
Intelligent Key while on an airplane.
Make sure the buttons are not operated
unintentionally when the unit is stored
during a flight.
The Intelligent Key system can operate all
the doors and the trunk lid using the
remote controller function or pushing the
request switch on the vehicle without
taking the key out from a pocket or purse.
The operating environment and/or condi-
tions may affect the Intelligent Key system
operation.
Be sure to read the following before using
the Intelligent Key system.
CAUTION
.Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with
you when operating the vehicle.
. Never leave the Intelligent Key in the
vehicle when you leave the vehicle.
The Intelligent Key is always communicat-
ing with the vehicle as it receives radio
waves. The Intelligent Key system trans-
mits weak radio waves. Environmental
conditions may interfere with the operation
of the Intelligent Key system under the
following operating conditions.
.When operating near a location where
strong radio waves are transmitted,
such as a TV tower, power station and
broadcasting station.
. When in possession of wireless equip-
ment, such as a cellular telephone,
transceiver, and CB radio.
. When the Intelligent Key is in contact
with or covered by metallic materials.
. When any type of radio wave remote
control is used nearby.
. When the Intelligent Key is placed near
an electric appliance such as a perso- nal computer.
. When the vehicle is parked near a
parking meter.
In such cases, correct the operating condi-
tions before using the Intelligent Key
function or use the mechanical key.
Although the life of the battery varies
depending on the operating conditions,
the battery’s life is approximately 2 years.
If the battery is discharged, replace it with
a new one.
When the Intelligent Key battery is almost
discharged, insert the Intelligent Key into
the Intelligent Key port to start the engine.
Replace the discharged battery with a new
one as soon as possible. For more details,
see “Push-button ignition switch” (P.5-9).
Since the Intelligent Key is continuously
receiving radio waves, if the key is left near
equipment which transmits strong radio
waves, such as signals from a TV and
personal computer, the battery life may
become shorter.
For information regarding replacement of a
battery, see “Intelligent Key battery repla-
cement” (P.8-26).
As many as 4 Intelligent Keys can be
registered and used with one vehicle. For
