Seat belt restraint system
Seat belts are designed to bear upon the
bony structure of the body, and should
be worn low across the front of the pelvis
or the pelvis, chest and shoulders, as
applicable; wearing the lap section of the
belt across the abdominal area must be
avoided.
Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly
as possible, consistent with comfort, to
provide the protection for which they
have been designed.
A slack belt will greatly reduce the pro-
tection afforded to the wearer.
Care should be taken to avoid contami-
nation of the webbing with polishes, oils
and chemicals, and particularly battery
acid. Cleaning may safely be carried out
using mild soap and water. The belt
should be replaced if webbing becomes
frayed, contaminated or damaged.
For maximum restraint system protec-
tion, the seat belts must always be
used whenever the vehicle is moving.
A properly positioned shoulder belt
should be positioned midway over your
shoulder across your collarbone.
Never allow children to ride in the front passenger seat. See child restraint
system section for further discussion.
SEAT BELTS
WARNING - Shoulder belt
Never wear the shoulder belt under
your arm or behind your back. An
improperly positioned shoulder
belt cannot protect the occupant in
a crash.
WARNING - Damaged
seat belt
Replace the entire seat belt assem-
bly if any part of the webbing or
hardware is damage as you can no
longer be sure that a damage seat
belt will provide protection in a
crash.
WARNING - Twisted seat
belt
Make sure your seat belt is not
twisted when worn. A twisted seat
belt may not properly protect you in
an accident and could even cut into
your body.
WARNING - Seat belt
buckle
Do not allow foreign material (gum,
crumbs, coins, etc.) to obstruct the
seat belt buckle. This may prevent
the seat belt from fastening secure-
ly.

Programming HomeLink®
✽
✽NOTICE
• When programming a garage door
opener, it is advised to park the vehi-
cle outside of the garage.
• It is recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held transmit-
ter of the device being programmed to
HomeLink
®for quicker training and
accurate transaxle of the radio-fre-
quency signal.
• Some vehicles may require the igni- tion switch to be turned to the second
(or "accessories") position for pro-
gramming and/or operation of
HomeLink.
• In the event that there are still pro- gramming difficulties or questions
after following the programming steps
listed below, contact HomeLink
®at:
www.homelink.com or 1-800-355-
3515.
Standard programming
To train most devices, follow these
instructions:
1. For first-time programming, press and
hold the two outside buttons,
HomeLink
®Channel 1 and Channel 3
Buttons, until the indicator light begins
to flash (after 20 seconds). Release
both buttons. Do not hold the buttons
for longer than 30 seconds.
2. Position the end of your hand-held transmitter 2-8 cm (1-3 inches) away
from the HomeLink
®buttons while
keeping the indicator light in view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold both the HomeLink
®and hand-held trans-
mitter button. DO NOT release the but-
tons until step 4 has been completed.

slowly and then rapidly after
HomeLink
®successfully trains to the
frequency signal from the hand-held
transmitter. Release both buttons. 5. Press and hold the just-trained
HomeLink
®button and observe the red
Status Indicator LED. If the indicator
light stays on constantly, programming
is complete and your device should
activate when the HomeLink
®button is
pressed and released.

®buttons, follow steps 2
through 5.
