mately 60 minutes of continuous operation. At
that time, the display will change from HI to LO,
indicating the change. The LO-level setting will
turn off automatically after approximately
45 minutes. Vehicles Equipped With Remote Start
On models that are equipped with remote start,
the heated seats can be programmed to come
on during a remote start.
This feature can be programmed through the
instrument cluster display. Refer to “Instrument
Cluster Display” in “Getting To Know Your

When exiting the vehicle the driver can choose
to have the headlights remain on for 30, 60 or
90 seconds or not remain on. To change the
timer setting, see an authorized dealer.
The headlight delay time is programmable on
vehicles equipped with an instrument cluster
display. Refer to “Instrument Cluster Display” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for
further information.
If the headlights are turned off before the
ignition, they will turn off in the normal manner.
NOTE:
The headlights must be turned off within 45
seconds of placing the ignition in the OFF
position to activate this feature.
Lights-On Reminder
If the headlights or the parking lights are left on,
or if the dimmer control is in the extreme top
position after the ignition has been placed in
the OFF position, a chime will sound when the
driver's door is opened.
Front Fog Lights — If Equipped
To activate the front fog lights, turn on the
parking lights or the low beam headlights and

NOTE:
If either light remains on and does not flash, or
there is a very fast flash rate, check for a
defective outside light bulb. If an indicator fails
to light when the lever is moved, it would
suggest that the indicator bulb is defective.
Turn Signal Warning
If the vehicle electronics sense that the vehicle
has traveled at over 18 mph (29 km/h) for
about 1 mile (1.6 km) with the turn signals on, a
chime will sound to alert the driver.
Lane Change Assist
Tap the lever up or down once, without moving
beyond the detent, and the turn signal (right or
left) will flash three times then automatically
turn off.
Battery Protection
This feature provides battery protection to avoid
wearing down the battery if the headlights or
parking lights are left on for extended periods of
time when the ignition is in the OFF position.
After eight minutes of the ignition being placed
in the OFF position, and the headlight switch in
any position other than OFF or AUTO, the lights
will turn off automatically until the next cycle of
the ignition or headlight switch.
The battery protection feature will be disabled if
the ignition is placed in any position other than
OFF during the eight minute delay.
INTERIOR LIGHTS
Courtesy/Interior Lighting
At the forward end of the overhead console are
two courtesy lights (standard dome light has
two buttons). These interior lights are turned on
when a door or the liftgate is opened, the
remote keyless entry key fob is activated, or
when the dimmer control is moved to the
extreme top.

indicator light changes from slow to rapid.
5. At the garage door opener (in the garage), locate the “LEARN” or “TRAINING” button.
This can usually be found where the
hanging antenna wire is attached to the
garage door opener/device motor. Firmly
push and release the “LEARN” or
“TRAINING” button. On some garage door
openers/devices there may be a light that
blinks when the garage door opener/device

previously trained, follow these steps:

1. Place the ignition in the ON/RUN position.

2. Push and hold the desired HomeLink® button until the indicator light begins to
flash after 20 seconds. Do not release the
button.
3. Without releasing the button , proceed with
“Programming A Non-Rolling Code” step two
and follow all remaining steps.
Canadian/Gate Operator Programming
For programming transmitters in
Canada/United States that require the
transmitter signals to “time-out” after several
seconds of transmission:
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. 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.

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.
