UNIVERSAL GARAGE DOOR OPENER (HomeLink®)
• HomeLink®replaces up to three hand-
held transmitters that operate devices
such as garage door openers, motor-
ized gates, lighting or home security
systems. The HomeLink
®unit is pow-
ered by your vehicles 12 Volt battery.
• The HomeLink
®buttons that are lo-
cated in the overhead console or sun-
visor designate the three different
HomeLink
®channels.
• The HomeLink
®indicator is located

Before You Begin Programming
HomeLink®
Ensure that your vehicle is parked outside of the garage before you begin program-
ming.
For efficient programming and accurate transmission 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 switch into the ON/RUN position, then press and hold the two outside
HomeLink
®buttons (I and III) for up to 20 seconds or until the red indicator flashes.
NOTE:
Erasing all channels should only be performed when programming HomeLink
®for
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
NOTE:
For programming Garage Door Openers that were manufactured 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. Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position.
2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 in (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink
®

QUADRA-LIFT™
The Quadra-Lift™ air suspension system provides full time load leveling capability
along with the benefit of being able to adjust vehicle height by the push of a button.
Quadra-Lift™ is available with both Quadra-Trac II
®and Quadra-Drive II™.
• The system requires that the engine be
running for all changes. When lowering
the vehicle all of the doors, including
the liftgate, must be closed.
• The Quadra-Lift™ air suspension sys-
tem uses a lifting and lowering pattern
which keeps the headlights from shin-
ing into oncoming traffic. When raising
the vehicle, the rear of the vehicle will
move up first and then the front. When
lowering the vehicle, the front will
move down first and then the rear.
• After the engine is turned off, you may
notice that the air suspension system
operates briefly. This is normal. The
system is correcting the position of the vehicle.
• To assist with changing a spare tire, the Quadra-Lift™ air suspension system has
a feature which allows the automatic leveling to be disabled. The feature controls
are located in the radio screen. Driving the vehicle over 5 mph (8 km/h) will return
the air suspension to normal operation.
• An audible chime will be heard whenever a system error has been detected.
Operation
• Pressing the “Up” or “Down” button once will move the suspension one position
higher or lower from the current position, assuming all conditions are met (i.e.,
engine running and all doors and liftgate closed).
• The 4 indicator lamps will illuminate to show the current position of the vehicle.
Flashing indicator lamps will show a position which the system is working to
achieve. If multiple indicator lamps are flashing on the “Up” button, the highest
flashing indicator lamp is the position the system is working to achieve.
• Normal Ride Height (NRH) – This is the standard position of the
suspension and is meant for normal driving. Only the bottom Indicator
lamp on the “Up” button will be illuminated when the vehicle is in this
position.
