HomeLink
® Wireless Control System is a registered trademark
of Johnson Controls Inc..
HomeLink® provides a convenient way to consolidate the
functions of up to three individual hand-held transmitters into
one built-in device.
HomeLink® will operate most radio frequency devices such as
garage doors, gates, home and office lighting, entry door locks
and security systems.
NOTE
Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off while program-
ming HomeLink
®.

HomeLink
® is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No sep-
arate batteries are required. If the vehicle’s battery is dis-
charged or is disconnected, HomeLink
® will retain all
programming.

Once HomeLink
® is programmed, retain the original
transmitter for future programming procedures (for exam-
ple, new vehicle purchases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the
programmed HomeLink
® buttons should be erased for
security purposes.
WA R N I N G
!
Do not use HomeLink
® with any garage door opener
that lacks safety stop and reverse features as
required by U.S. Federal Regulations. A garage door
opener which cannot detect an object in the path of
a closing garage door and then automatically stop
and reverse, does not meet current U.S. Federal
Regulations. Using a garage door opener without
these features increases the risk of serious injury or
death.

During programming, your garage door or gate may
open or close. Make sure that people and objects are
clear of the garage door or gate that you are pro-
gramming.

Driving safety

4 Vehicle preparation before driving
N00629000630
For a safer and more enjoyable trip, always observe the follow-
ing: Seat belts and seats
Before starting the vehicle, make certain that you and all
passengers are seated and wearing their seat belts properly
(with children in the rear seat, in appropriate restraints),
and that all the doors are locked.

Move the driver’s seat as far backward as possible, while
still keeping good visibility, and good control of the steer-
ing wheel, brakes, accelerator, and controls. Check the
instrument panel indicators for any possible problem.

Move the front passenger seat as far back as possible.

Make sure that infants and small children are properly
restrained in accordance with all laws and regulations.Defrosters Check these by selecting the defroster mode, and set the blower
switch on high. You should be able to feel the air blowing
against the windshield.
(Refer to “Defrosting or defogging the windshield and door
windows” on page 5-12, 5-19.)
Tires Check all the tires for heavy tread wear or uneven wear pat-
terns. Look for stones, nails, glass, or other objects stuck in the
tread. Look for any tread cuts or sidewall cracks. Check the
wheel nuts for tightness, and the tires (including spare tire) for
proper pressures. Replace your tires before they are heavily
worn out.
As your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring
system, there is a risk of damage to the tire inflation pressure
sensors when the tire is replaced on the rim. Tire replacement
should, therefore, be performed only by an authorized Mitsub-
ishi Motors dealer.Lights Have someone watch while you turn all the exterior lights on
and off. Also check the turn signal indicators and high-beam
indicators on the instrument panel. Fluid leaks Check the ground under the vehicle after parking overnight, for
fuel, water, oil, or other leaks. Make sure all the fluid levels are
correct. Also, if you can smell fuel, you need to find out why
immediately and have it fixed.
