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
above the center button.
Before You Begin Programming
HomeLink®
Ensure that your vehicle is parked out-
side of the garage before you begin programming.
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.
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 atHomeLink.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 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink®
button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink®indicator light in view.

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.
POWER INVERTER
A 115 Volt, 150 Watt power inverter
outlet is located on the rear of the center
console. This outlet can power cellular
phones, electronics and other low power
devices requiring power up to 150 Watts.
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 in-
verter 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:
• 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.

CARGO AREA FEATURES
• The cargo load floor system has a load capacity of 400 lbs (181 kg). The load floor
has a built-in storage bin that can hold a variety of items. The underside of the
storage bin cover also contains a plastic-lined tray. The cover can be installed with
either side facing up for added utility.
Cargo Tie-Down Hooks and Loops
• The tie-downs located on the cargo area floor should be used to secure loads safely
when the vehicle is moving.
WARNING!
• Cargo tie-downs are not safe anchors for a child seat tether strap. In a sudden
stop or a collision, a tie-down could pull loose and allow the child seat to come
loose. A child could be badly injured. Use only the anchors provided for child
seat tethers.
• To help protect against personal injury, passengers should not be seated in the
rear cargo area. The rear cargo space is intended for load carrying purposes
only, not for passengers, who should sit in seats and use seat belts.

This light will flash rapidly for approximately 15 seconds when the vehicle security
alarm is arming. The light will flash at a slower speed continuously after the alarm is
set. The security light will also come on for about three seconds when the ignition is
first turned on.
-FuelCap/LooseGasCapEVICMessage
• If a “gas cap” message (shown as gASCAP) appears, tighten the gas cap until a
“clicking” sound is heard.
• If the message continues to appear for more than three days after tightening the
gas cap, see your authorized service center.
- Electronic Speed Control ON Indicator
This indicator will illuminate when the electronic speed control has been activated to
the “ON” position.
- Electronic Speed Control SET Indicator
This indicator will illuminate when the cruising speed has been set.
-AdaptiveCruseControl(ACC)ONIndicator
• If your vehicle is equipped with adaptive cruise control the controls operate
exactly the same as the normal (fixed speed) cruise control with one difference.
You can set a specified distance you would like to maintain between you and the
vehicle in front of you.
• If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC will apply limited braking or
acceleration automatically to maintain a preset following distance, while matching
the speed of the vehicle ahead.
• If the sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead of you, ACC will maintain a fixed set
speed.
• For further information on Adaptive Cruse Control (ACC) ON operation and proper
use, refer to “Speed Control ” in “Operating Your Vehicle”.
NOTE:
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) increases the driving convenience provided by cruise
control while traveling on highways and major roadways. However, it is not a safety
system and not designed to prevent collisions.

9. Position the spare wheel/tire on the vehicle and install lug bolts with the
cone-shaped end toward the wheel. Lightly tighten the bolts.
10. Lower the vehicle by turning the jack screw to the left, and remove the jack.
11. Finish tightening the lug bolts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the
handle for increased leverage. Tighten the lug bolts in a star pattern until each
nut has been tightened twice. The correct wheel bolt tightness is 100 ft lb
(135 N·m). If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a
torque wrench by your authorized dealer or at a service station.
12. Lower the jack to it's fully closed position.
13. Secure the tire, jack, and tools in their proper locations.
14. Remove chocks from wheels.
Road Tire Installation
1. Mount the road tire on the axle.
2. Install the remaining lug bolts with the threaded end of the bolt toward the wheel.
Lightly tighten the lug bolts.
3. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
4. Finish tightening the lug bolts. Push down on the wrench while at the end of the
handle for increased leverage. Tighten the lug bolts in a star pattern until each
bolt has been tightened twice. The correct tightness of each lug bolt is 100 ft/lbs
(135 N·m). If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a
torque wrench by your authorized dealer or service station.
5. After 25 miles (40 km) check the lug bolt torque with a torque wrench to ensure
that all lug bolts are properly seated against the wheel.
CAUTION!
Do not attempt to raise the vehicle by jacking on locations other than those
indicated in the Jacking Instructions for this vehicle.
