Programming A Non-Rolling Code
NOTE:
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 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink®button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink® indicator light in view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold both the HomeLink® button you want to program and the hand-held transmitter button.
4. Continue to hold both buttons and observe the indicator light. The HomeLink® indicator will flash slowly and then rapidly after HomeLink® has received the frequency signal
from the hand-held transmitter. Release both buttons after the indicator light changes
from slow to rapid.
5. Press and hold the programmed HomeLink® button and observe the indicator light. If the indicator light stays on constantly, programming is complete and the garage door (or
device) should activate when the HomeLink® button is pressed.
6. To program the two remaining HomeLink® buttons, repeat each step for each remaining button. DO NOT erase the channels.
Using HomeLink®
• To operate, press and release the programmed HomeLink® button. Activation will nowoccur for the programmed device (e.g., garage door opener, gate operator, security
system, entry door lock, home/office lighting, etc.,). The hand-held transmitter of the
device may also be used at any time.
WARNING!
• Your motorized door or gate will open and close while you are programming the
universal transceiver. Do not program the transceiver if people or pets are in the path
of the door or gate.
• Do not run your vehicle in a closed garage or confined area while programming the
transceiver. Exhaust gas from your vehicle contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is
odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide is poisonous when inhaled and can cause
you and others to be severely injured or killed.

POWER INVERTER
• There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt power inverteroutlet located on the left rear trim panel
immediately behind the second row left
passenger seat. This outlet can power
cellular phones, electronics and other
low power devices requiring power up to
150 Watts.
• Press the switch located in the center of the instrument panel to turn the power to
the outlet on.
• Press the switch again to turn the power off.
• The status indicator of the AC power inverter indicates whether the inverter is producing AC power.
NOTE:
The power inverter is designed with built-in overload protection. If the power rating of
150 Watts is exceeded, the power inverter will automatically shut down. Once the electrical
device has been removed from the outlet, the inverter should automatically reset. If the
power rating exceeds approximately 170 Watts, the power inverter may have to be reset
manually. To reset the inverter manually, unplug the device and plug it in again. To avoid
overloading the circuit, check the power ratings on electrical devices prior to using the
inverter.
WARNING!
To Avoid Serious Injury or Death DO NOT:
• use a three-prong adaptor
• insert any objects into the receptacles
• touch with wet hands
Close the lid when not in use. If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric shock
and failure.

WARNING!
In a collision, serious injury could result if the seat storage bin covers are not properly
latched. Do not drive the vehicle with the storage bin covers open. Keep the storage bin
covers closed and latched while the vehicle is in motion. Do not use a storage bin latch
as a tie down.
ROOF LUGGAGE RACK
• The crossbars on your vehicle are deliv-ered stowed within the roof rack side rails.
When installed, the roof rack can hold a
maximum of 150 lbs (68 kg) of evenly
distributed weight.
Installing The Crossbars
•
To install the crossbars, completely loosen
the thumb screws at both ends and lift the
crossbar from its stowed position.
• Bend the pivot points at each end of the crossbar and slide the thumb screw down.
• Set the crossbars into position and tighten the thumb screws.
NOTE:
Make sure the directional arrow on the
crossbar aligns with the directional arrow on
the side rail.
• Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WARNING LIGHTS
- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Indicator Light
If this indicator light flashes during acceleration, apply as little throttle as possible. While
driving, ease up on the accelerator. Adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road
conditions. To improve the vehicle's traction when starting off in deep snow, sand or gravel,
it may be desirable to switch the ESC system off.
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Light
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the
size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine
the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you
should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper
pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can
lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may
affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
IF THE LIGHT STARTS FLASHING INDICATING A LOW TIRE PRESSURE, ADJUST THE AIR
PRESSURE IN THE LOW TIRE TO THE AIR PRESSURE SHOWN ON THE VEHICLE PLACARD
OR TIRE INFLATION PRESSURE LABEL LOCATED ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR.
