• If you use HomeLink ®
to open a garage
door or gate, be sure no one is near the gate or door while it is in motion.
• When programming a garage dooropener, it is advised to park outside of thegarage.
• Do not use HomeLink ®
with any garage
door opener that lacks safety stop andreverse features as required by U.S. fed-eral safety standards (this includes anygarage door opener model manufacturedbefore April 1, 1982). A garage door thatcannot detect an object - signaling thedoor to stop and reverse - does not meetcurrent U.S. federal safety standards. Formore information, contact HomeLink at:www.homelink.com.
The HomeLink ®

Wireless Control System pro-
vides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held radio-frequency (RF) transmitters usedto activate devices such as gate operators,garage door openers, entry door locks, securitysystems, even home lighting. Additional informa-tion can be found on the Internet at,www.homelink.com/www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by phoning the hotline at 1–800–355–3515. Retain the original transmitter of the RF device you are programming for use in other vehicles as well as for future HomeLink programming. It isalso suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle,the programmed HomeLink buttons be erasedfor security purposes. Refer to “Resetting Home- Link Buttons” in HomeLink

Using HomeLinkTo operate, simply press and hold the pro- grammed HomeLink button until the traineddevice begins to operate (this may take severalseconds). Activation will now occur for the traineddevice (i.e., garage door opener, gate operator,security system, entry door lock, home/officelighting, etc.). For convenience, the hand-heldtransmitter of the device may also be used at anytime. In the event that there are still programmingdifficulties or questions, contact HomeLink at:www.homelink.com/www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by phoning the hotline at 1–800–355–3515.
NOTE
If the ignition is switched off, HomeLink will function for 30 minutes after the driver's doorhas been opened.

Wireless Control
System * – programming
The HomeLink Wireless Control System pro- vides a convenient way to replace up to threehand-held radio-frequency (RF) transmittersused to activate devices such as gate operators,garage door openers, entry door locks, securitysystems, even home lighting. Additional informa-tion can be found on the Internetatwww.homelink.com/www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by phoning the hotline at 1–800–355–3515.
NOTE
Some vehicles may require the ignition to be switched on or be in the “accessories” posi-tion for programming and/or operation ofHomeLink. It is also recommended that a newbattery be placed in the hand-held transmitterof the device being programmed to Home-Link for quicker training and accurate trans-mission of the radio-frequency signal. TheHomeLink buttons must be reset first. Whenthis has been completed, Homelink is inlearning mode so that you can perform pro-gramming.
1. Position the end of your hand-held transmit- ter 1–3 inches (5–14 cm) away from the HomeLink button you wish to program whilekeeping the indicator light in view. 2. Simultaneously press and hold both the
chosen HomeLink and hand-held transmitterbuttons until the HomeLink indicator lightchanges from a slow to a rapidly blinkinglight. Now you may release both the Home-Link and hand-held transmitter buttons.
NOTE
Some devices may require you to replace this Programming Step 2 with procedures notedin the “Gate Operator / Canadian Program-ming” section. If the HomeLink indicator lightdoes not change to a rapidly blinking lightafter performing these steps, contact Home-Link at www.homelink.com/www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or byphoning the hotline at 1–800–355–3515.
3. Firmly press, hold for five seconds and
release the programmed HomeLink button
up to two separate times to activate the door. If the door does not activate, press and holdthe just-trained HomeLink button andobserve the indicator light.
• If the indicator light
stays on constantly,
programming is complete and your
device should activate when the Home-Link button is pressed and released.
• If the indicator light blinks
rapidly for two
seconds and then turns to a constantlight continue with “Programming”steps 4-6 to complete the programming
of a rolling code equipped device (mostcommonly a garage door opener).
4. At the garage door opener receiver (motor- head unit) in the garage, locate the “learn” or “smart” button. This can usually be foundwhere the hanging antenna wire is attachedto the motor-head unit.

5. Firmly press and release the “learn” or
“smart” button. (The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer.) There are30 seconds to initiate step 6.
6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two seconds and release the pro-grammed HomeLink button. Repeat the“press/hold/release” sequence a secondtime, and, depending on the brand of thegarage door opener (or other rolling codeequipped device), repeat this sequence athird time to complete the programmingprocess.
HomeLink should now activate your rolling codeequipped device.
Gate Operator/Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmit- ter signals to “time-out” (or quit) after severalseconds of transmission – which may not be longenough for HomeLink to pick up the signal dur-ing 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 difficulties programming a gate operator or garage dooropener by using the “Programming” procedures, replace “Programming HomeLink” step 2 with the following : •
Continue to press and hold the HomeLink button while you
press and release - every
two seconds (“cycle”) your hand-held trans-
mitter until the HomeLink indicator light changes from a slow to a rapidly blinkinglight. Now you may release both the Home-Link and hand-held transmitter buttons.
Proceed with “Programming” step 3 to complete.
Resetting HomeLink ButtonsUse the following procedure to reset (erase pro-gramming) from the three HomeLink buttons(individual buttons cannot be reset but can be“reprogrammed” as outlined in the following sec-tion):
1. Press and hold the two outer HomeLink but- tons until the indicator light begins to flash.
2. Release both buttons. > HomeLink is now in the training (or learn-ing) mode and can be programmed at any time beginning with “Programming” - step1.
Reprogramming a Single HomeLink Button
To program a device to HomeLink using a Home- Link button previously trained, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink but-
ton. DO NOT release the button. 2. The indicator light will begin to flash after 20
seconds. Without releasing the HomeLink button, proceed with “Programming” - step 1.

NOTE
• Triangular areas at the far sides of the windshield are not heated electrically andwill take slightly longer to defrost/de-ice.
• The heated windshield may affect theperformance/range of e.g., transpondersused to automatically pay highway tolls orother communication equipment.
The following occurs when the defroster/wind- shield heating functions have been activated:
• Blower speed increases automatically andthe air conditioning (p. 133) will switch on (ifnot already on and if the passenger compart-ment blower is not turned off) to dehumidifythe air in the passenger compartment. Airconditioning can be switched off by pressing the
AC button.
• Recirculation (p. 135) will not function while defrost is engaged.
The climate system will return to its previous set-tings when the defroster/windshield heatingfunction is switched off. See also Heated windshield *, rear window and
door mirror defrosters (p. 106) for additional information.
