NOTE:
Erasing all channels should only be per-
formed when programming HomeLink for the
first time. Do not erase channels when pro-
gramming additional buttons.
If you have any problems, or require assis-
tance, please call toll-free 1-800-355-3515
or, on the Internet at HomeLink.com for in-

Programming A Rolling Code
NOTE:
For programming Garage Door Openers that
were manufactured after 1995. These Ga-
rage Door Openers can be identified by the
“LEARN” or “TRAIN” button located where
the hanging antenna is attached to the Ga-
rage 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/RUNposition. 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 ob- serve the indicator light. The HomeLink
indicator will flash slowly and then rapidly
after HomeLink has received the fre-
quency signal from the hand-held trans-
mitter. Release both buttons after the in-
dicator light changes from slow to rapid.
5. At the garage door opener motor (in the garage), locate the “LEARN” or “TRAIN-
ING” button. This can usually be found
where the hanging antenna wire is at-
tached 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 pro-
grammed HomeLink button twice (hold-
ing 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 re-
maining button. DO NOT erase the
channels.
Programming A Non-Rolling Code
NOTE:
For programming Garage Door Openers
manufactured before 1995.
1. Place the ignition switch to the ON/RUNposition.
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.

quency signal from the hand-held trans-
mitter. Release both buttons after the
indicator light changes from slow to rapid.
5. Push and hold the programmed HomeLink button and observe the indica-
tor light. If the indicator light stays on

To operate, push and release the pro-
grammed 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 openand close while you are programming
the universal transceiver. Do not pro-
gram 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 program-
ming the transceiver. Exhaust gas from
your vehicle contains Carbon Monoxide
(CO) which is odorless and colorless.
Carbon Monoxide is poisonous when in-
haled and can cause you and others to
be severely injured or killed.

A second front power outlet is located inside
the center console.
The rear power outlet is located in the right
rear cargo area.The power outlets are labeled with either a
“key” or a “battery” symbol to indicate how
the outlet is powered. Power outlets labeled
with a “key” are powered when the ignition
switch is in the ON/RUN or ACC position,
while the outlets labeled with a “battery” are
connected directly to the battery and pow-
ered at all times.
NOTE:
• Do not exceed the maximum power of
160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the
160 Watt (13 Amp) power rating is ex-
ceeded, the fuse protecting the system
will need to be replaced.
• Power outlets are designed for accessory 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. • The rear cargo power outlet can be
switched to “battery” powered all the time
by switching the power outlet right rear
quarter panel fuse in the fuse panel.

Power Inverter
There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt power inverter
outlet located on the back of the center
console. This outlet can power cellular
phones, electronics and other low power de-
vices 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 elec-
trical device has been removed from the out-
let, the inverter should automatically reset. If
the power rating exceeds approximately
170 Watts, the power inverter may have to be
reset manually. To reset the inverter manu-
ally, 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.
