NOTE:
• When connecting your iPod® device for the first time, the system may take several minutes toread your music, depending on the number of files. For example, the system will take
approximately five minutes for every 1000 songs loaded on the device. Also during the
reading process, the Shuffle and Browse functions will be disabled. This process is needed to
ensure the full use of your iPod® features and only happens the first time it is connected. After
the first time, the reading process of your iPod® will take considerably less time unless changes
are made or new songs are added to the playlist.
• The USB port supports certain Mini, Classic, Nano, Touch, and iPhone® devices. The USB port also supports playing music from compatible external USB Mass Storage Class memory
devices. Some iPod® software versions may not fully support the USB port features. Please visit
Apple’s website for iPod® software updates.
Audio Jack (AUX)
The AUX allows a portable device, such as an MP3 player or an iPod®, to be plugged into the
radio and utilize the vehicle’s sound system, using a 3.5 mm audio cable, to amplify the source and
play through the vehicle speakers.
• Pressing the “AUX” button on the touchscreen will change the mode to auxiliary device if the audio jack is connected, allowing the music from your portable device to be heard through the
vehicle's speakers. In order to activate the AUX, plug in the audio jack.
• The functions of the portable device are controlled using the device buttons. The volume may be controlled using the radio or portable device.
• To route the audio cable out of the center console, use the access cut out in the front of the console.
Bluetooth® Streaming Audio
If using a Bluetooth® - equipped device, you may also be able to stream music to your vehicle's
sound system. Your connected device must be Bluetooth-compatible, and paired with your
system (see Uconnect® Phone for pairing instructions).

Before You Begin Programming HomeLink®
Ensure that your vehicle is parked outside of the garage before you begin programming.
For efficient programming and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal, it is recom-
mended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held transmitter of the device that is being
programmed to the HomeLink® system.
To erase the channels, place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position, then push 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 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 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink® button youwish to program while keeping the HomeLink® indicator light in view.
3. Push and hold the HomeLink® button you want to program while you push and hold 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. 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 push 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 pushed.
6. Return to the vehicle and push the programmed HomeLink® button twice (holding the button for two seconds each time). If the device is plugged in and activates, programming is
complete.

NOTE:
If the device does not activate, push 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 remainingbutton. 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 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink® button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink® indicator light in view.
3. Push and hold the HomeLink® button you want to program while you push and hold 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. Push 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 pushed.
6. To program the two remaining HomeLink® buttons, repeat each step for each remaining button. DO NOT erase the channels.
Using HomeLink®
To operate, push 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 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.
