CAUTION
Do not use organic solvents to clean
the seat. It may damage the seat
surface and the heater.

NOTE
  If the ignition is switched off while the
seat warmer is operating (High, Mid or
Low) and then switched ON again, the
seat warmer will automatically operate
at the temperature set before switching
off the ignition.
  Use the seat warmer when the engine
is running. Leaving the seat warmer
on for long periods with the engine not
running could cause the battery power
to be depleted.
  The temperature of the seat warmer
cannot be adjusted beyond High, Mid
and Low because the seat warmer is
controlled by a thermostat.

Driving Position Memory *
The desired driving position can be called
up after programming the position.
The following driving positions can be
programmed.
  Driver’s seat position (seat slide, height
adjustment, front edge of seat bottom,
seat recline)
 Refer to Seat Operation on page 2-5 .   Active driving display (display position,
brightness level, display information)
 Refer to Active Driving Display on page 4-28 .

CAUTION
Do not place fi ngers or hands around
the bottom of the seat while the seat
memory function is operating. The
seat moves automatically while the
seat memory function is operating and
fi ngers or hands could get pinched and
injured.

Doors and Locks
*Some models.
Closing the liftgate
Lower the liftgate slowly using the liftgate
grip recess, then push the liftgate closed
using both hands.
Do not slam it. Pull up on the liftgate to
make sure it is secure.
For the power liftgate operation, refer to
Power Liftgate on page 3-24 .

NOTE
Confi rm that the liftgate is securely closed.
The liftgate, move it without pressing the
electric liftgate opener to verify that the
liftgate has not been left ajar.

Power Liftgate *
The power liftgate opens/closes
electrically by operating the switches in
the vehicle or the buttons on the keyless
entry system transmitter.
WARNING
Be sure to watch the power liftgate as it
opens or closes, and make sure that it
closes completely: Opening or closing the power
liftgate while not watching it move
is dangerous. Because of unseen
obstacles and the jam-safe feature, a
liftgate may not close completely and,
if left unnoticed, could result in serious
injury or death if an occupant were to
fall out of the vehicle.
Always be sure that the area around
the liftgate is clear before activating it.

Always confi rm the safety of the area
around the power liftgate before
operating it electrically. Not checking the area around the
liftgate for people before operating
it using the power liftgate switch
or the button on the keyless entry
system is dangerous. A person could
become caught between the liftgate
and an obstruction while it is opening
electrically or between the liftgate and
vehicle while it is closing electrically,
resulting in an accident and serious
injury.

Never allow children to operate the
power liftgate system: Allowing children to operate the power
liftgate switch and the keyless entry
system is dangerous. Children are not
aware of the dangers of people getting
fi ngers and hands caught in a moving
liftgate. If someone's neck, head or
hands get caught in a closing door, it
could result in death or serious injury.

Switches and Controls
Pre-programming the HomeLink System
NOTE
It is recommended that a new battery be
placed in the hand-held transmitter of the
device being programmed to HomeLink
for quicker training and accurate
transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
   Verify that there is a remote control
transmitter available for the device you
would like to program.
   Disconnect the power to the device.
Programming the HomeLink
System
CAUTION
When programming a garage door
opener or a gate, disconnect the power
to these devices before performing
programming. Continuous operation
of the devices could damage the
motor.

The HomeLink system provides 3 buttons
which can be individually selected and
programmed using the transmitters for
current, on-market devices as follows:

1. Disconnect the power to the garage
door opener or gate programmed to the
hand-held transmitter.
2. Position the end of your hand-held transmitter 2.5—7.5 cm (1—3 inches)
away from the HomeLink button you
wish to program while keeping the
indicator light in view. 3. Simultaneously press and hold both
the chosen HomeLink and hand-held
transmitter buttons. Do not release
the buttons until step 3 has been
completed.
NOTE
Some gate operators and garage door
openers may require you to replace this
Programming Step 2 with procedures
noted in the “Gate Operator/Canadian
Programming” section.

4. After the HomeLink indicator light changes from a slow to a rapidly
blinking light, release both the
HomeLink and hand-held transmitter
buttons.
NOTE
If the HomeLink indicator light does not
change to a rapidly blinking light, contact
HomeLink at www.homelink.com or call
1-800-355-3515 for assistance.

5. Connect the power to the garage door opener or gate programmed to the
hand-held transmitter.

6. Firmly press and hold the programmed HomeLink button for fi ve seconds,
and then release it. Perform this
operation two times to activate the door
or gate. If the door or gate does not
activate, press and hold the just-trained
HomeLink button and observe the
indicator light.
If the indicator light stays on constantly, programming is complete
and your device should activate when
the HomeLink button is pressed and
released.
NOTE
To program the remaining two HomeLink
buttons, begin with “Programming” —
step 1

If the indicator light blinks rapidly
for two seconds and then turns
to a constant light, continue with
“Programming” steps 7—9 to
complete the programming of a rolling
code equipped device (most commonly
a garage door opener).
7. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in the garage, locate
the “learn” or “smart” button. This can
usually be found where the hanging
antenna wire is attached to the motor-
head unit.
8. Firmly press and release the “learn” or “smart” button. (The name and color of
the button may vary by manufacturer.)
NOTE
Complete the programming within
30 seconds.

9. Return to the vehicle and fi rmly press,
hold for two seconds and release the
programmed HomeLink button. Repeat
the “ press/hold/release ” sequence a
second time, and, depending on the
brand of the garage door opener (or
other rolling code equipped device),
repeat this sequence a third time to
complete the programming process.

HomeLink should now activate your
rolling code equipped device.
NOTE
To program the remaining two HomeLink
buttons, begin with “Programming” —
step 1

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.

If you live in Canada or you are having
diffi culties programming a gate operator
by using the “Programming” procedures
(regardless of where you live), replace
“Programming HomeLink” step 3 with
the following:
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.

Continue to press and hold the HomeLink
button while you press and release
— every two seconds (“cycle”) your
hand-held transmitter until the frequency
signal has successfully been accepted by
HomeLink. (The indicator light will fl ash
slowly and then rapidly.)
Proceed with “Programming” step 4 to
complete.
Operating the HomeLink System
Press the programmed HomeLink button
to operate a programmed device. The
code will continue being transmitted for a
maximum of 20 seconds.
Reprogramming the HomeLink system
To program a device to HomeLink using
a HomeLink button previously trained,
follow these steps:

1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink
button. DO NOT release the button.
2. The indicator light will begin to fl ash
after 20 seconds. Without releasing
the HomeLink button, proceed with
“Programming” - step 1.

Erasing Programmed HomeLink Buttons
To erase the existing programming from
all three operating channels, press and
hold the two outside buttons (
, ) on
the auto-dimming mirror until the
HomeLink indicator light begins to fl ash
after approximately 10 seconds.
Verify that the programming has been
erased when you resell the vehicle.
