HIGH BEAM ASSIST (LED
HEADLIGHT ONLY)
You can use this function to set the head-
lights to change between low beam and high
beam automatically. The system recognizes
vehicles with their lights on, either approach-
ing from the opposite direction or traveling in
front of your vehicle, and consequently
switches the headlights from high beam to
low beam.
The system automatically adapts the low
beam headlight range depending on the dis-
tance to the other vehicle. Once the system
no longer detects any other vehicles, it
switches on the high beam headlights again.
The system's optical sensor is located behind
the windshield near the overhead control
panel.
WARNING
•The high beam assist system is a conve-
nience but is not a substitute for safe
driving operation. The driver should re-
main alert at all times, ensure safe driv-
ing practices and switch the high beams
and low beam manually when necessary.
•The high beam or low beam may not
switch automatically under the follow-
ing conditions. Switch the high beam
and low beam manually.
–During bad weather (rain, fog, snow,
wind, etc.).
–When a light source similar to a head-
light or tail light is in the vicinity of
the vehicle.
–When the headlights of the oncoming
vehicle or the leading vehicle are
turned off, when the color of the light
is affected due to foreign materials
on the lights, or when the light beam
is out of position.
–When there is a sudden, continuous
change in brightness.
–When driving on a road that passes
over rolling hills, or a road that has
level differences.
–When driving on a road with many
curves.–When a sign or mirror-like surface is
reflecting intense light towards the
front of the vehicle.
–When the container, etc. being towed
by a leading vehicle is reflecting in-
tense light.
–When a headlight on your vehicle is
damaged or dirty.
–When the vehicle is leaning at an
angle due to a punctured tire, being
towed, etc.
•The timing of switching the low beam
and high beam may change under the
following situations.
–The brightness of the headlights of
the oncoming vehicle or leading ve-
hicle.
–The movement and direction of the
oncoming vehicle and the leading ve-
hicle.
–When only one light on the oncoming
vehicle or the leading vehicle is illumi-
nated.
–When the oncoming vehicle or the
leading vehicle is a two-wheeled ve-
hicle.
–Road conditions (incline, curve, the
road surface, etc.).
–The number of passengers and the
amount of luggage.

VANITY MIRROR LIGHTS
To access the vanity mirror, pull the sun visor
down and flip open the mirror cover.
The vanity mirror light illuminates when the
vanity mirror cover is opened. When the cover
is closed, the light will turn off.
LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
LIGHT
The light illuminates while the lift gate is
opened. When the lift gate is closed, the light
will turn off.
BATTERY SAVER SYSTEM
The interior light will automatically turn off
after a period of time when the ignition
switch has been put in the OFF position. To
turn on the light again, put the ignition switch
in the ON position.The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver, inte-
grated in the vehicle's inside rear view mirror,
provides a convenient way to consolidate the
functions of up to three individual hand-held
transmitters into one built-in device.
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver:
•Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF)
devices such as garage doors, gates, home
and office lighting, entry door locks and
security systems.
•Is powered by your vehicle’s battery. No
separate batteries are required. If the ve-
hicle’s battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLink® will retain all pro-
gramming.
When the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
is programmed, retain the original trans-
mitter for future programming procedures
(Example: new vehicle purchases). Upon sale
of the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink®
Universal Transceiver buttons should be
erased
for security purposes. For addi-
tional information, refer to"Programming
HomeLink® " later in this section.

When doing so, vary the distance be-

5and

The required distance between the hand
held transmitter
5and the integrated ga-
rage door opener depends on the garage
door drive system. Several attempts might
be necessary. You should test every posi-
tion for at least 25 seconds before trying
another position.
Synchronizing the rolling code
If the garage door system uses a rolling code,
you will also have to synchronize the garage
door system with the integrated garage door
opener in the rear-view mirror. To do this you
will need to use the programing button on thedoor drive control panel. The programing
button may be positioned at different loca-
tions depending on the manufacturer. It is
usually located on the door drive unit on the
garage ceiling.
Familiarize yourself with the garage door
drive operating instructions before carrying
out the following steps.
Your vehicle must be within reach of the ga-
rage door or gate opener drive. Make sure
that neither your vehicle nor any persons/
objects are present within the sweep of the
door or gate.
1. Turn the ignition key to the ON position.
2. Get out of the vehicle.
3. Press the programing button on the door
drive unit.
Usually, you now have 30 seconds to ini-
tiate the next step.
4. Get into the vehicle.
5. Press previously programed button
2,3or4on the HomeLink® until the door
closes.
The rolling code synchronization is then
complete.
If you live in Canada
Canadian radio frequency laws require a
"break" (or interruption) of the transmission
signals after broadcasting for a few seconds.
Therefore, these signals may not last long
enough for the integrated garage door
opener. The signal is not recognized during
programing. Comparable with Canadian law,
some U.S. garage door openers also feature a
"break".
Proceed as follows:
•If you live in Canada
•If you have difficulties programing the ga-
rage door opener (regardless of where you
live) when using the programing steps.

PROGRAMMING TROUBLE
DIAGNOSIS
If the HomeLink® does not quickly learn the
hand-held transmitter information:
•Check the transmitter frequency used by
garage door drive hand-held transmitter
5and whether it is supported. The trans-
mitter frequency can usually be found onthe back of the garage door drive hand-
held transmitter. HomeLink® is compat-
ible with devices that have units which
operate in the frequency range of 280 to
433 MHz.
•Replace the hand-held transmitter5bat-
teries with new batteries.
This increases the likelihood that the hand-
held transmitter
5will transmit a strong
and precise signal to the HomeLink®.
•When programing, hold the hand-held
transmitter
5at varying distances and
angles from the button which you are pro-
graming. Try various angles at a distance
between 2 and 12 inches (5 to 30 cm) or at
the same angle but at varying distances.
•If another hand-held transmitter is avail-
able for the same garage door drive, re-
peat the same programing steps with this
hand-held transmitter
5. Before per-
forming these steps, make sure that new
batteries have been installed in the hand-
held transmitter
5.
•Note that some hand-held transmitters
only transmit for a limited amount of time
(the indicator light on the hand-held trans-
mitter goes out). Press button
6on re-
mote hand-held transmitter
5again be-
fore transmission ends.
•Align the antenna cable of the garage door
opener unit. This can improve signal
reception/ transmission.
If you have any questions or are having diffi-
culty programming your HomeLink® but-
tons, refer to the HomeLink® web site at:
www.homelink.com or 1-800-355-3515.
