REAR WINDOW WIPER/WASHER
The rear wiper/washer controls are located on
the multifunction lever on the left side of the
steering column. The rear wiper/washer is
operated by rotating a switch, located at the
middle of the lever.
Rear Wiper/Washer Control
Rotate the center portion of the lever
upward to the first detent for
intermittent operation and to the
second detent for continuous rear wiper
operation.
Rotating the center portion upward
once more will activate the washer
pump which will continue to operate
as long as the switch is held. Upon release of the switch, the wipers will
resume the continuous rear wiper operation.
When this rotary control is in the OFF position,
rotating it downward will activate the rear
washer pump which will continue to operate as
long as the switch is held. Once the switch is
released it will return to the OFF position and
the wipers will cycle several times before
returning to the parked position.
NOTE:
As a protective measure, the pump will stop if
the switch is held for more than 20 seconds.
Once the switch is released the pump will
resume normal operation.
If the rear wiper is operating when the ignition is
placed in the OFF position, the wiper will
automatically return to the “park” position.
CLIMATE CONTROLS
The Climate Control system allows you to
regulate the temperature, air flow, and direction
of air circulating throughout the vehicle. The
controls are located on the touchscreen (if
equipped) and on the instrument panel below
the radio.

Be sure that your vehicle is parked outside of
the garage before you begin programming.
For more efficient programming and accurate
transmission of the Radio Frequency (RF)
signal, it is recommended that a new battery be
placed in the hand-held transmitter of the
device that is being programmed to the
HomeLink® system.
To erase the channels, place the ignition in the
ON/RUN position and push and hold the two
outside HomeLink® buttons (I and III) for up 20
seconds or until the red indicator flashes.
NOTE:
Erasing all channels should only be
performed when programming HomeLink®
for the first time. Do not erase channels when
programming 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 infor -
mation or assistance.
Programming A Rolling Code
For programming garage door openers that
were manufactured after 1995:
These garage door openers can be identified by
the “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button located where
the hanging antenna is attached to the garage
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.

P
ROGRAMMING
For programming transmitters in Canada/
United States that require the transmitter
signals to “time-out” after several seconds of
transmission:
Canadian Radio Frequency (RF) 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.
It may be helpful to unplug the device during the
cycling process to prevent possible overheating
of the garage door or gate motor.
1. Place the ignition in the ON/RUN position.
NOTE:
For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go,
place the ignition in the RUN position with the
engine on. Make sure while programming
HomeLink® with the engine on that your vehicle
is outside of your garage, or that the garage
door remains open at all times.
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. Continue to push and hold the HomeLink® button while you push and release (“cycle”)
your hand-held transmitter every two
seconds until HomeLink® has successfully
accepted the frequency signal. The indicator light will flash slowly and then
rapidly when fully trained.
4. Watch for the HomeLink® indicator to change flash rates. When it changes, it is
programmed. It may take up to 30 seconds
or longer in rare cases. The garage door
may open and close while you are
programming.
5. Push and hold the programmed HomeLink® button and observe the
indicator light.
NOTE:
If the indicator light stays on constantly,
programming is complete and the garage
door/device should activate when the Home -
Link® button is pushed.
To program the two remaining HomeLink®
buttons, repeat each step for each remaining
button. DO NOT erase the channels.
If you unplugged the garage door opener/
device for programming, plug it back in at this
time.

6. Repeat the procedure to stow the second crossbar on the opposite side.
Stowed Crossbars
NOTE:
To help control wind noise, stow the cross -
bars in the side rails when they are not in use.
If any metallic object is placed over the satel -
lite radio antenna (if equipped), you may
experience interruption of satellite radio
reception.
WARNING!
Cargo must be securely tied down before
driving your vehicle. Improperly secured loads
can fly off the vehicle, particularly at high
speeds, resulting in personal injury or
property damage. Follow the roof rack
cautions when carrying cargo on your roof
rack.
CAUTION!
To prevent damage to the roof of your
vehicle, DO NOT carry any loads on the roof
rack without the crossbars deployed. The
load should be secured and placed on top
of the crossbars, not directly on the roof. If
it is necessary to place the load on the roof,
place a blanket or other protective layer
between the load and the roof surface.
To avoid damage to the roof rack and
vehicle, do not exceed the maximum roof
rack load capacity of 150 lbs (68 kg).
Always distribute heavy loads as evenly as
possible and secure the load appropriately.
Load should always be secured to cross -
bars first, with tie down loops used as addi -
tional securing points if needed. Tie loops
are intended as supplementary tie down
points only. Do not use ratcheting mecha -
nisms with the tie loops. Check the straps
and thumb wheels frequently to be sure
that the load remains securely attached.
Long loads that extend over the windshield,
such as wood panels or surfboards, or
loads with large frontal area should be
secured to both the front and rear of the
vehicle.
Travel at reduced speeds and turn corners
carefully when carrying large or heavy loads
on the roof rack. Wind forces, due to
natural causes or nearby truck traffic, can
add sudden upward lift to a load. This is
especially true on large flat loads and may
result in damage to the cargo or your
vehicle.
The use of Sport Mode, Track Mode, or
Launch Control is not recommended when
using the Roof Luggage Rack to carry a
load.

SAFETY
SAFETY FEATURES
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS)
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) provides
increased vehicle stability and brake
performance under most braking conditions.
The system automatically prevents wheel lock,
and enhances vehicle control during braking.
The ABS performs a self-check cycle to ensure
that the ABS is working properly each time the
vehicle is started and driven. During this
self-check, you may hear a slight clicking sound
as well as some related motor noises.
ABS is activated during braking when the
system detects one or more wheels begin to
lock. Road conditions such as ice, snow, gravel,
bumps, railroad tracks, loose debris, or panic
stops may increase the likelihood of ABS
activation(s).You also may experience the following when
ABS activates:
The ABS motor noise (it may continue to run
for a short time after the stop).
The clicking sound of solenoid valves.
Brake pedal pulsations.
A slight drop of the brake pedal at the end of
the stop.
NOTE:
These are all normal characteristics of ABS.
WARNING!
The ABS contains sophisticated electronic
equipment that may be susceptible to inter -
ference caused by improperly installed or
high output radio transmitting equipment.
This interference can cause possible loss of
anti-lock braking capability. Installation of
such equipment should be performed by
qualified professionals.
Pumping of the Anti-Lock Brakes will
diminish their effectiveness and may lead
to a collision. Pumping makes the stopping
distance longer. Just press firmly on your
brake pedal when you need to slow down or
stop.
The ABS cannot prevent the natural laws of
physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can
it increase braking or steering efficiency
beyond that afforded by the condition of the
vehicle brakes and tires or the traction
afforded.
The ABS cannot prevent collisions,
including those resulting from excessive
speed in turns, following another vehicle
too closely, or hydroplaning.
The capabilities of an ABS equipped vehicle
must never be exploited in a reckless or
dangerous manner that could jeopardize
the user’s safety or the safety of others.

The BSM system notifies the driver of objects in
the detection zones by illuminating the BSM
warning light located in the outside mirrors. In
addition, when the turn signal is activated
during the alert on the side of the vehicle
corresponding to the alert, an audible (chime)
alert can be heard. During the audible (chime)
alert, the radio volume will be reduced. Refer to
“Modes Of Operation” for further information.
BSM Warning Light
The BSM system monitors the detection zone
from three different entry points (Side, Rear,
Front) while driving to see if an alert is
necessary. The BSM system will issue an alert
during these types of zone entries.
Entering From The Side
