On steep hills, a greater speed loss or gain may occur so
it may be preferable to drive without Electronic Speed
Control.
WARNING!
Electronic Speed Control can be dangerous where the
system cannot maintain a constant speed. Your ve-
hicle could go too fast for the conditions, and you
could lose control and have an accident. Do not use
Electronic Speed Control in heavy traffic or on roads
that are winding, icy, snow-covered or slippery.
GARAGE DOOR OPENER — IF EQUIPPED
HomeLinkreplaces up to three hand-held transmitters
that operate devices such as garage door openers, motor-
ized gates, lighting or home security systems. The
HomeLinkunit is powered by your vehicles 12 Volt
battery.The HomeLinkbuttons, located on either the overhead
console, headliner or sunvisor, designate the three differ-
ent HomeLinkchannels. The HomeLinkindicator is
located above the center button.

NOTE:HomeLinkis disabled when the Vehicle Secu-
rity Alarm is active.
Before You Begin Programming HomeLink
Be sure that your vehicle is parked outside of the garage
before you begin programming.For more efficient programming and accurate transmis-
sion of the radio-frequency signal it is recommended that
a new battery be placed in the hand-held transmitter of
the device that is being programmed to the HomeLink
system.
Erase all channels before you begin programming. To
erase the channels place the ignition in the ON/RUN
position and press and hold the two outside HomeLink
buttons (I and III) for up 20 seconds or until the red
indicator flashes.
NOTE:
•Erasing all channels should only be performed when
programming HomeLinkfor the first time. Do not
erase channels when programming additional buttons.
•If you have any problems, or require assistance, please
call toll-free 1–800–355–3515 or, on the Internet at
www.HomeLink.com for information or assistance.

Programming A Rolling Code
For programming garage door openers that were manu-
factured after 1995. These garage door openers can be
identified by the “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button located
where the hanging antenna is attached to the garage door
opener. It is NOT the button that is normally used to
open and close the door. The name and color of the
button may vary by manufacturer.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position.
2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 in (3 to 8 cm)
away from the HomeLinkbutton you wish to program
while keeping the HomeLinkindicator light in view.

3. Simultaneously press and hold both the Homelink
button you want to program and the hand-held transmit-
ter button.
4. Continue to hold both buttons and observe the indi-
cator light. The Homelinkindicator will flash slowly
and then rapidly after Homelinkhas received the fre-
quency signal from the hand-held transmitter. Release
both buttons after the indicator light changes from slow
to rapid.
5. At the garage door opener motor (in the garage),
locate the “LEARN” or “TRAINING” button. This can
usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is
attached to the garage door opener/device motor. Firmly
press and release the “LEARN” or “TRAINING” button.
On some garage door openers/devices there may be a
light that blinks when the garage door opener/device is
in the LEARN/TRAIN mode.NOTE:You have 30 seconds in which to initiate the next
step after the LEARN button has been pressed.
6. Return to the vehicle and press the programmed
HomeLinkbutton twice (holding the button for two
seconds each time). If the garage door opener/device
activates, programming is complete.
NOTE:If the garage door opener/device does not
activate, press the button a third time (for two seconds) to
complete the training.
To program the remaining two HomeLinkbuttons,
repeat each step for each remaining button. DO NOT
erase the channels.
Reprogramming A Single HomeLinkButton
To reprogram a channel that has been previously trained,
follow these steps:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position.
164 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

2. Press and hold the desired HomeLinkbutton until
the indicator light begins to flash after 20 seconds.Do not
release the button.
3.Without releasing the buttonproceed with “Program-
ming A Rolling Code” Step 2 and follow all remaining
steps.
Programming A Non-Rolling Code
For programming Garage Door Openers manufactured
before 1995.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position.
2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 in (3 to 8 cm)
away from the HomeLinkbutton you wish to program
while keeping the HomeLinkindicator light in view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold both the Homelink
button you want to program and the hand-held transmit-
ter button.4. Continue to hold both buttons and observe the indi-
cator light. The Homelinkindicator will flash slowly
and then rapidly after Homelinkhas received the fre-
quency signal from the hand-held transmitter. Release
both buttons after the indicator light changes from slow
to rapid.
5. Press and hold the programmed HomeLinkbutton
and observe the indicator light.
•If the indicator light stays on constantly, program-
ming is complete and the garage door/device
should activate when the HomeLinkbutton is
pressed.
•To program the two remaining HomeLinkbuttons,
repeat each step for each remaining button. DO
NOT erase the channels.

Reprogramming A Single HomeLinkButton
To reprogram a channel that has been previously trained,
follow these steps:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position.
2. Press and hold the desired HomeLinkbutton until
the indicator light begins to flash after 20 seconds.Do not
release the button.
3.Without releasing the buttonproceed with “Program-
ming A Non-Rolling Code” Step 2 and follow all remain-
ing steps.
Canadian/Gate Operator Programming
For programming transmitters in Canada/United States
that require the transmitter signals to “time-out” after
several seconds of transmission.
Canadian radio frequency laws require transmitter sig-
nals to time-out (or quit) after several seconds of trans-
mission – which may not be long enough for HomeLinkto pick up the signal during programming. Similar to this
Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to
time-out in the same manner.
It may be helpful to unplug the device during the cycling
process to prevent possible overheating of the garage
door or gate motor.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position.
2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 in (3 to 8 cm)
away from the HomeLinkbutton you wish to program
while keeping the HomeLinkindicator light in view.
3. Continue to press and hold the HomeLinkbutton,
while you press and release (“cycle”), your hand-held
transmitter every two seconds until HomeLinkhas
successfully accepted the frequency signal. The indicator
light will flash slowly and then rapidly when fully
trained.

4. Watch for the HomeLinkindicator to change flash
rates. When it changes, it is programmed. It may take up
to 30 seconds or longer in rare cases. The garage door
may open and close while you are programming.
5. Press and hold the programmed HomeLinkbutton
and observe the indicator light.
•If the indicator light stays on constantly, program-
ming is complete and the garage door/device
should activate when the HomeLinkbutton is
pressed.
•To program the two remaining HomeLinkbuttons,
repeat each step for each remaining button. DO
NOT erase the channels.
If you unplugged the garage door opener/device for
programming, plug it back in at this time.
Reprogramming A Single HomeLinkButton
To reprogram a channel that has been previously trained,
follow these steps:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position.
2. Press and hold the desired HomeLinkbutton until
the indicator light begins to flash after 20 seconds.Do not
release the button.
3.Without releasing the buttonproceed with
“Canadian/Gate Operator Programming” Step 2 and
follow all remaining steps.
Using HomeLink
To operate, press and release the programmed
HomeLinkbutton. Activation will now occur for the
programmed device (i.e., garage door opener, gate opera-
tor, security system, entry door lock, home/office light-
ing, etc.,). The hand-held transmitter of the device may
also be used at any time.
