HomeLink Wireless Control System
WARNINGS
Make sure that the garage door and
security device are free from
obstruction when you are
programming. Do not program the system
with the vehicle in the garage. Do not use the system with any garage
door opener that does not have the
safety stop and reverse feature as
required by U.S. Federal Safety Standards
(this includes any garage door opener
manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage
door opener which cannot detect an object,
signaling the door to stop and reverse, does
not meet current federal safety standards.
Using a garage door opener without these
features increases the risk of serious injury or
death. Note:
Make sure you keep the original remote
control transmitter for use in other vehicles as
well as for future system programming.
Note: We recommend that upon the sale or
lease termination of your vehicle, you erase
the programmed function buttons for security
reasons. See Erasing the Function Button
Codes. Note:
You can program a maximum of three
devices. To change or replace any of the three
devices after it has been initially programmed,
you must first erase the current settings. See
Erasing the Function Button Codes
. The universal garage door opener replaces
the common hand-held garage door opener
with a three-button transmitter that is
integrated into the driver
’s sun visor.
The system includes two primary features, a
garage door opener and a platform for
remote activation of devices within the home.
As well as being programmed for garage
doors, the system transmitter can be
programmed to operate entry gate operators,
security systems, entry door locks and home
or office lighting. Additional system information can be found
online at www.homelink.com,
www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by
calling the toll-free help line on
1-800-355-3515.
In-Vehicle Programming
This process is to program your hand-held
transmitter and your in-vehicle HomeLink
button.
Note:
The programming steps below assume
you will be programming HomeLink that was
not previously programmed.
Note: Put a new battery in the hand-held
transmitter. This will ensure quicker training
and accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency signal. 1. With your vehicle parked outside of the
garage, turn your ignition to the
on
position, but do not start your vehicle.

2. Hold your hand-held garage door
transmitter 2–6 in (5– 14 cm) away from
the HomeLink button you want to
program.
3. Using both hands, simultaneously, press and hold the desired HomeLink button
and the hand-held transmitter button.
DO NOT release either one until the
HomeLink indicator light flashes slowly
and then rapidly. When the indicator light
flashes rapidly, both buttons may be
released. The rapid flashing indicates
successful training.
Note: You may need to use a different method
if you live in Canada or have difficulties
programming your gate operator or garage
door opener. See
Gate Operator / Canadian
Programming.
4. Press and hold the HomeLink button you
programmed for two seconds, then
release. You may need to do this twice to
activate the door. If your garage door
does not operate, watch the HomeLink
indicator light.
If the indicator light stays on, the
programming is complete. No further
action is needed. If the indicator light flashes rapidly for 2
seconds and then turns to a constant light,
the HomeLink button is not programmed yet.
See
Programming Your Garage Door
Opener Motor.
To program additional buttons, repeat Steps
1 – 4.

Programming Your Garage Door Opener
Motor
Note: You may need a ladder to reach the unit
and you may need to remove the cover or lamp
lens on your garage door opener. 1.
Press the learn button on the garage door
opener motor and then you have 30
seconds to complete the next two steps. 2. Return to your vehicle.
3. Press and hold the function button you
want to program for 2 seconds, then
release. Repeat this step. Depending on
your brand of garage door opener, you
may need to repeat this sequence a third
time.
Gate Operator / Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)
after several seconds of transmission – which
may not be long enough for HomeLink to pick
up the signal during programming. Similar to
this Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators
are designed to “time-out” in the same
manner.
Note: If programming a garage door opener
or gate operator, it is advised to unplug the
device during the “cycling” process to prevent
possible overheating.

The current gap setting and SET also
appears in the instrument cluster.
Setting the Adaptive Cruise Speed
1. Drive to desired speed.
2. Press and release
Set+ or Set-.
3. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
4. The information display will show a green
indicator light, current gap setting and
desired set speed. 5. A vehicle graphic illuminates if there is a
vehicle detected in front of you.
Note: When adaptive cruise control is active,
the speedometer may vary slightly from the
set speed displayed in the information display. Following a Vehicle WARNINGS
When following a vehicle in front of you,
your vehicle will not decelerate
automatically to a stop, nor will your
vehicle always decelerate quickly enough to
avoid a crash without driver intervention.
Always apply the brakes when necessary.
Failing to do so may result in a crash, serious
injury or death. Adaptive cruise control only warns of
vehicles detected by the radar sensor.
In some cases there may be no warning
or a delayed warning. You should always
apply the brakes when necessary. Failing to
do so may result in a crash, serious injury or
death. Note:
The brakes may emit a sound when
modulated by the adaptive cruise control
system.
When a vehicle ahead of you enters the same
lane or a slower vehicle is ahead in the same
lane, the vehicle speed adjusts to maintain
a preset gap distance. The distance setting
is adjustable.
The lead vehicle graphic will illuminate. To help you pass a vehicle in front of you, the
adaptive cruise control system may provide
a small temporary acceleration when you
switch on your left turn signal while following
a lead car.
Your vehicle maintains a consistent gap from
the vehicle ahead until:
•
the vehicle in front of you accelerates to
a speed above the set speed
• the vehicle in front of you moves out of
your lane or out of view
• the vehicle speed falls below 16 mph (26
km/h)
• a new gap distance is set.
The vehicle will apply the brakes to slow the
vehicle to maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle in front. The maximum braking which
the system can apply is limited. You can
override the system by applying the brakes.
If the system predicts that its maximum
braking level will not be sufficient, an audible
warning will sound while the system
continues to brake. This is accompanied by
a heads-up display; a red warning bar
illuminating on the windshield. You should
take immediate action.

ESSENTIAL TOWING CHECKS
Follow these guidelines for safe towing:
•
Do not tow a trailer until you drive your
vehicle at least 1000 miles (1600
kilometers).
• Consult your local motor vehicle laws for
towing a trailer.
• See the instructions included with towing
accessories for the proper installation
and adjustment specifications.
• Service your vehicle more frequently if
you tow a trailer. See your scheduled
maintenance information.
• If you use a rental trailer, follow the
instructions the rental agency gives you.
You can find information on load
specification terms found on the tire label
and Safety Compliance label as well as
instructions on calculating your vehicle's load
in the Load Carrying chapter. See Load Limit
(page 192).
Remember to account for the trailer tongue
weight as part of your vehicle load when
calculating the total vehicle weight. Hitches
Do not use a hitch that either clamps onto
the bumper or attaches to the axle.
Distribute the trailer load so 10-15% of the
total trailer weight is on the tongue.
Safety Chains
Note:
Never attach safety chains to the
bumper.
Always connect the safety chains to the hook
retainers of your vehicle hitch.
To connect the safety chains, cross them
under the trailer tongue and allow enough
slack for turning tight corners. Do not allow
the chains to drag on the ground.
Trailer Brakes WARNING
Do not connect a trailer's hydraulic
brake system directly to your vehicle's
brake system. Your vehicle may not
have enough braking power and your chances
of having a collision greatly increase. Electric brakes and manual, automatic or
surge-type trailer brakes are safe if you install
them properly and adjust them to the
manufacturer's specifications. The trailer
brakes must meet local and federal
regulations.
The rating for the tow vehicle's braking
system operation is at the gross vehicle
weight rating, not the gross combined
weight rating.
Trailer Lamps
WARNING
Never connect any trailer lamp wiring
to the vehicle's tail lamp wiring; this
may damage the electrical system
resulting in fire. Contact your authorized
dealer as soon as possible for assistance in
proper trailer tow wiring installation.
Additional electrical equipment may be
required. Trailer lamps are required on most towed
vehicles. Make sure all running lights, brake
lights, turn signals and hazard lights are
working.
