Wireless FM Transmitter
Your device may be equipped with an external FM transmitter, which
allows you to listen to the audio signal by tuning your vehicle’s FM radio
to the selected frequency and turning SOUND AROUND on with the
remote. Whenever the SOUND AROUND is on, broadcast radio reception
may be poor. Performance varies based on geographic location. Turning
SOUND AROUND off allows normal radio reception.
How to use the FM Transmitter
Power up your system and place a disc in monitor “A”. While pointing
your remote at the monitor press the “DVD A” button directly under the
red “POWER” button on your remote control. Next press the “Sound
Around ON/ OFF” button to turn FM transmission on or off as desired.
Three buttons to right is the “Sound Around SELECT” button which
cycles through six possible stations (88.3, 88.7, 89.1, 89.5, 89.9, and
90.3MHz) for broadcasting audio to your radio. Once you’ve selected a
frequency, you must then tune your radio to the corresponding
frequency. Try each station frequency until you achieve a clear audio
signal.

Note:We recommend that upon the sale or lease termination of your
vehicle, you erase the programmed function buttons for security reasons.
SeeErasing the function button codeslater in this section.
Note:You can program a maximum of three devices. To change or
replace any of the three devices after it has been initially programmed,
you must first erase the current settings. SeeErasing the function
button codeslater in this section.
The universal garage door opener
replaces the common hand-held
garage door opener with a
three-button transmitter that is
integrated into the driver’s sun visor.
The system includes two primary
features, a garage door opener and
a platform for remote activation of
devices with the home. As well as being programmed for garage doors,
the system transmitter can be programmed to operate entry gate
operators, security systems, entry door locks, and home or office lighting.
Additional system information can be found on-line at www.homelink.com
or by calling the toll-free help line on 1-800-355-3515.
Programming
Note:Put a new battery in the hand-held transmitter. This will ensure
quicker training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
1. Switch the ignition on.
2. Hold the garage door hand-held
transmitter 1–3 inches (2–8
centimeters) away from the button
on the sun visor you want to
program.
Note:During programming, the
hand-held transmitter may stop
transmitting. If this occurs press and hold the function button while you
press and release the hand-held transmitter every two seconds. The
indicator light will flash slowly and then rapidly once the radio frequency
signal is accepted.
3. Press and hold both the button on the sun visor you want to program
and the hand-held transmitter button until the indicator light on the sun
visor changes from flashing slowly to rapidly, then release.

GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING:Extended idling at high engine speeds can produce
very high temperatures in the engine and exhaust system,
creating the risk of fire or other damage.
WARNING:Do not park, idle, or drive your vehicle on dry grass
or other dry ground cover. The emission system heats up the
engine compartment and exhaust system, which can start a fire.
WARNING:Do not start your vehicle in a closed garage or in
other enclosed areas. Exhaust fumes can be toxic. Always open
the garage door before you start the engine.
WARNING:If you smell exhaust fumes inside your vehicle, have
your vehicle checked by an authorized dealer immediately. Do
not drive if you smell exhaust fumes.
If you disconnect the battery, your vehicle may exhibit some unusual
driving characteristics for approximately 5 miles (8 kilometers) after you
connect it. This is because the engine management system must realign
itself with the engine. You may disregard any unusual driving
characteristics during this period.
The powertrain control system meets all Canadian interference-causing
equipment standard requirements regulating the impulse electrical field
strength of radio noise.
When starting your vehicle, avoid pressing the accelerator pedal before
and during operation. Only use the accelerator pedal when you have
difficulty starting the engine.

vehicle to a safe stop. After your vehicle has stopped, switch the engine
off and move the transmission selector lever to positionP.Turn the key
to the accessory or off position.
Note:Do not store the key in the ignition after the vehicle is turned off
and you have left the vehicle. This could cause a drain on the battery.
A.Off:The ignition is off.
B.Accessory:Allows the electrical accessories, such as the radio, to
operate while the engine is not running.
C.On:All the electrical circuits are operational. Warning lights are
illuminated. This is the key position when driving.
D.Start:Cranks the engine. Release the key as soon as the engine
starts.
STARTING A GASOLINE ENGINE
When the engine starts, the idle RPM runs faster to warm the engine. If
the engine idle speed does not slow down automatically, have the vehicle
checked.
Before starting the vehicle:
•Make sure all occupants buckle their safety belts.
•Make sure the headlamps and electrical accessories are off.
•Make sure the parking brake is set.
•Make sure the gearshift is in positionP.
•Turn the key to on without turning the key to start.

SENSING SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING:To help avoid personal injury, please read and
understand the limitations of the system as contained in this
section. Sensing is only an aid for some (generally large and fixed)
objects when moving in reverse on a flat surface at parking speeds.
Traffic control systems, inclement weather, air brakes, and external
motors and fans may also affect the function of the sensing system; this
may include reduced performance or a false activation.
WARNING:To help avoid personal injury, always use caution
when in R (Reverse) and when using the sensing system.
WARNING:This system is not designed to prevent contact with
small or moving objects. The system is designed to provide a
warning to assist the driver in detecting large stationary objects to
avoid damaging the vehicle. The system may not detect smaller objects,
particularly those close to the ground.
WARNING:Certain add-on devices such as large trailer hitches,
bike or surfboard racks and any device that may block the normal
detection zone of the system, may create false beeps.
Note:Keep the sensors (located on the bumper/fascia) free from snow,
ice and large accumulations of dirt. If the sensors are covered, the
system’s accuracy can be affected. Do not clean the sensors with sharp
objects.
Note:If your vehicle sustains damage to the bumper/fascia, leaving it
misaligned or bent, the sensing zone may be altered causing inaccurate
measurement of obstacles or false alarms.
Note:If your vehicle is equipped with MyKey, it is possible to prevent
turning the sensing system off. Refer to theMyKeychapter.
The sensing system warns the driver of obstacles within a certain range
of the bumper area. The system turns on automatically whenever the
ignition is switched on.
When receiving a detection warning, the radio volume is reduced to a
predetermined level. After the warning goes away, the radio volume
returns to the previous level.

Front Sensing System
The front sensors are active when the gearshift is in any position other
than P (Park) or N (Neutral) and the vehicle speed is below 8 mph
(13 km/h).
A. Coverage area of up to 27 inches
(70 centimeters) from the front of
the vehicle and about 6–9 inches
(15–23 centimeters) to the side of
the front end of the vehicle. Refer
to the reverse sensing section for
details on coverage area.
The system sounds an audible warning when obstacles are near either
bumper in the following manner:
•Objects detected by the front sensors are indicated by a high-pitched
tone from the front radio speakers.
•Objects detected by the rear sensors are indicated by a lower pitched
tone from the rear radio speakers.
•The sensing system reports the obstacle which is closest to the front
or rear of the vehicle. For example, if an obstacle is 12 inches (30
centimeters) from the front of the vehicle and, at the same time, an
obstacle is only 6 inches (15 centimeters) from the rear of the vehicle,
the lower pitched tone sounds.
•An alternating warning sounds from the front and rear if there are
objects at both bumpers that are closer than 10 inches (25
centimeters).
For specific information on the reverse sensing portion of the system,
refer to that section.
