After closing the luggage compartment lid,
make sure that it is latched. Otherwise the
luggage compartment lid could open sud-
denly when driving, which increases the risk
of an accident.
— Never drive with the luggage compartment
lid ajar or open, because poisonous gases
from the surrounding area can enter the ve-
hicle interior and increase the risk of asphyx-
iation.
— Applies to: vehicles with rear seats: Never
leave your vehicle unattended when the lug-
gage compartment lid is open. A child could
climb into the vehicle through the luggage
compartment. If the luggage compartment
lid was then closed, the child would be trap-
ped in the vehicle and unable to escape. To
reduce the risk of injury, do not allow chil-
dren to play in or around the vehicle. Always
keep the luggage compartment lid and the
doors closed when the vehicle is not in use.
— Applies to: vehicles without rear seats: Nev-
er leave your vehicle unattended when the
luggage compartment lid is open. A child
could crawl into the luggage compartment.
If the luggage compartment lid was then
closed, the child would be trapped in the ve-
hicle and unable to escape. To reduce the
risk of injury, do not allow children to play in
or around the vehicle. Always keep the lug-
gage compartment lid and the doors closed
when the vehicle is not in use.
— Always make sure no one is in the luggage
compartment lid's range of motion when it

With the garage door opener, you can activate
systems such as the garage doors, security sys-
tems or house lights from inside your vehicle. Up
to three remote control functions can be pro-
grammed to the three buttons that are integrat-
ed in the control unit above the rearview mirror.
To be able to operate systems using the garage
door opener, the buttons in the control unit must
first be programmed.
ZX WARNING
When operating or programming the garage
door opener, make sure that no people or ob-
jects are in the area immediately surrounding
the equipment. People can be injured or prop-
erty can be damaged if struck when closing.
— For security reasons, we recommend that
you clear the programmed buttons before
selling the vehicle.

Programming the button: step 1 on the
control panel
1. Switch the ignition on.
Page 31 of 280
8S1012721BB
Opening and closing
Press both of the outer buttons on the con-
trol unit > page 28, fig. 28 until the yellow
LED (2) turns off and the green LED @ blinks.
This procedure clears the standard codes that
were set at the factory and does not need to
be repeated again to program the other but-
tons.
Briefly press the button in the control panel
that you want to program.
Wait until the yellow LED (2) blinks. The pro-
gramming mode is active for five minutes.
Go in front of the vehicle with the original re-
mote control transmitter for the system that
you are programming to the control panel
button.
Programming the button: step 2 at the
radiator grille
6. Hold the remote control transmitter at the
vehicle radiator grille > fig. 29.
Now press the remote control transmitter
until the turn signals on your vehicle blink.
This can take up to 30 seconds.
If the emergency flashers blink three times,
the programming was successful. If the
emergency flashers only blink one time, the
five-minute time limit for programming has
expired or the programming was unsuccess-
ful. Repeat the programming procedure
starting from the third step or change the
distance to the radiator grille.
If the garage door or other systems do not
open with the HomeLink buttons even if the
programming was successful, the system
may use a rolling code instead of a fixed
code. You must also then perform rolling
code programming > page 29.
The other two buttons in the control panel can be
programmed using the instructions given above.
Start with step 3.
Deleting button programming
The programmed buttons cannot be deleted indi-
vidually. They must be deleted all at once. Repro-
gram the buttons if necessary.
> Switch the ignition on.
> Press both of the outer buttons on the control
unit until the yellow LED (2) turns off and the
green LED (@ blinks.
Reprogramming buttons
> Switch the ignition on.
> To reprogram an individual button, press the
desired button until the green LED (@) turns off
and the yellow LED (2) starts to blink (after ap-
proximately 20 seconds). Release the button
immediately. The programming mode is active
for five minutes.
> Continue with step 5.
@ Tips
— The distance needed between the remote
control transmitter and the garage door
opener module in the radiator grille
=> fig. 29 depends on the system you are
programming.
— Depending on the system model, you may
need to release the button on the remote
control transmitter while it is programming
and press it again. Hold every position you
try when programming for at least 15 sec-
onds before trying a new position. Keep an
eye on the vehicle turn signals while doing
this.
Rolling code programming
Applies to: vehicles with garage door opener
On some systems, programming a rolling code is
also necessary.
Identifying a rolling code
> Press the button in the control unit that is al-
ready programmed again and hold it down.
>» Watch the green LED @) & page 28, fig. 28. If
the green LED blinks quickly, the system (such
as a garage door) has a rolling code.
> Program the rolling code as follows:
Activating the system motor unit
> Locate the programming button on the system
motor unit. The exact location and color of the
button may vary depending on the brand.
> Press the programming button on the system
motor unit (usually this will activate a “display” >
29
Page 32 of 280
Opening and closing
on the motor unit). You now have approximate-
ly 30 seconds to program the button in the
control panel.
Programming the button in the control
panel
> Press and hold the previously programmed but-
ton in the control panel for two seconds.
> To complete rolling code programming, press
and hold the button again for two seconds.
> On some systems, the button might need to be
pressed a third time to end the programming
procedure.
After programming, the system should recognize
the signal and operate when the button in the
control panel is pressed. Now you may program
the other buttons as needed.
@ Tips
— The rolling code can be programmed more
quickly and more easily with the help of a
second person.
— If any difficulties occur when programming
the rolling code, it may be helpful to read
the system operating manual.
