UNIVERSAL GARAGE DOOR OPENER (HomeLink®)
HomeLink®replaces up to three hand-held transmitters that operate devices such as
garage door openers, motorized gates, lighting or home security systems. The HomeLink®
unit is powered by your vehicles 12 Volt battery.
The HomeLink®buttons that are located in the overhead console or sunvisor
designate the three different HomeLink®channels.
The HomeLink
®indicator is located above the center button.
Before You Begin Programming
HomeLink®
Ensure that your vehicle is parked out-
side of the garage before you begin pro-
gramming.
For efficient programming and accurate
transmission of the radio-frequency sig-
nal, 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 pro-
gramming. 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
®
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 buttons until the EVIC display changes from “CHANNEL # TRAINING” to “CHANNEL # TRAINED”, then release both buttons.
NOTE:
If the EVIC displays “DID NOT TRAIN” repeat from Step 2.
5.
At the garage door opener motor (in the garage), locate the “LEARN” or “TRAINING”
button. This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the
garage door opener motor. Firmly press and release the “LEARN” or “TRAINING”
button.
NOTE:
You have 30 seconds in which to initiate the next step after the LEARN button has
been pressed.
6.
Return to the vehicle and press the programmed HomeLink®button twice (holding
the button for two seconds each time). The EVIC will display “CHANNEL
#
TRANSMIT”. If the garage door opener/device activates, programming is complete.
NOTE:
If the device does not activate, press the button a third time (for two seconds) to
complete the training.
7. To program the remaining two HomeLink
®buttons, repeat each step for each
remaining button. DO NOT erase the channels.

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 in (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 buttons until the EVIC display changes from “CHANNEL #
TRAINING” to “CHANNEL # TRAINED”, then release both buttons.
5. Press and hold the programmed HomeLink®button and observe the indicator
light.
NOTE:
If the EVIC displays “DID NOT TRAIN” repeat from Step 2.
• 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
now occur for the programmed device (i.e., garage door opener, gate operator,
security system, entry door lock, home/office lighting, etc.,). The hand-held trans-
mitter 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 OUTLETS
The auxiliary 12 Volt (13 Amp) power outlets can provide power for in-cab accesso-
ries designed for use with the standard “cigar lighter” plug. The 12 Volt power outlets
have a cap attached to the outlet indicating “12V DC”, together with either a key
symbol or a battery symbol.
The auxiliary power outlets can be found in the following locations:
• Lower left and lower right in the center of the instrument panel – if equipped witha column or a eight-speed electronic shifter.
• Inside the top storage tray.
• Inside the upper lid of the center stor- age compartment — if equipped.
•
Rear of the center console storage com-
partment — Quad Cab®or Crew Cab.
NOTE:
• Do not exceed the maximum power of 160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts.
If the 160 Watt (13 Amp) power rating
is exceeded, the fuse protecting the
system will need to be replaced.
• Power outlets are designed for acces- sory plugs only. Do not insert any other
object in the power outlet as this will
damage the outlet and blow the fuse.
Improper use of the power outlet can
cause damage not covered by your new
vehicle warranty.

CAUTION!
Failure to follow the following items could cause damage to the vehicle:
• Assure that all cargo inside the storage bins is properly secured.
• Do not exceed cargo weight rating of 150 lb (68 kg) per bin.
• Leaving the lid open for extended periods of time could cause the vehiclebattery to discharge. If the lid is required to stay open for extended periods of
time, it is recommended that the bin lights be turned off manually using the
on/off switch.
• Ensure cargo bin lids are closed and latched before moving or driving vehicle.
• Loads applied to the top of the bin lid should be minimized to prevent damage
to the lid and latching/hinging mechanisms.
• Damage to the RamBox
®bin may occur due to heavy/sharp objects placed in
bin that shift due to vehicle motion. In order to minimize potential for damage,
secure all cargo to prevent movement and protect inside surfaces of bin from
heavy/sharp objects with appropriate padding.
• The maximum load per cleat should not exceed 250 lbs (113 kg) and the angle
of the load on each cleat should not exceed 60 degrees above horizontal, or
damage to the cleat or cleat rail may occur.
WARNING!
•Always close the storage bin covers when your vehicle is unattended or in motion.
• Do not allow children to have access to the storage bins. Once in the storagebin, young children may not be able to escape. If trapped in the storage bin,
children can die from suffocation or heat stroke.
• In a collision, serious injury could result if the storage bin covers are not
properly latched.
• Do not use a storage bin latch as a tie down.
• To reduce the risk of potential injury or property damage:
• Cargo must be secured.
• Do not exceed cargo load rating of your vehicle.
• Secure all loads to truck utilizing cargo tie-downs.
• Extender should not be used as cargo tie-down.
• When vehicle is in motion do not exceed 150 lbs (68 kg) load on thetailgate.
• The bed extender is not intended for off road use.
•
When not in use, the extender/divider should be in stowed or divider posi-
tion with the tailgate closed.
• When in use, all handles are to be in the locked position.
