CAUTION!
The high beams can only be switched
on manually by pushing the left-hand
multifunction lever forward.
WARNING!
If the high beams are activated, they
will turn on automatically every time
the low beams are switched on either
manually or automatically. We
recommend therefore that you switch
them off when they are no longer
necessary and every time the twilight
sensor deactivates the external lights.
“Follow me Home” Function
This function allows you to set a
timing for activation of the position
lights and low beams, so that they may
remain on for a set time after turning
off the vehicle.
This function is activated by pushing
the left-hand multifunction lever on
the steering column, used to flash the
headlights.
The position lights and low beams turn
on for 30 seconds, the message
“Follow me” appears on the
instrument cluster display for 20seconds, and the light activation time
is displayed.
When this function is active, every
time the left-hand multifunction lever
for flashing the headlights is operated,
the time the lights remain on is
increased by 30 seconds, with a
maximum total time of 210 seconds.
The display will show the time set.
If the left-hand multifunction lever for
flashing the headlights is operated for
more than 2 seconds, the function is
deactivated, and the indicator on the
instrument cluster display goes off.
When the function is active, turning
the key in the ignition switch back to
MAR (ON)position deactivates the
system.Front Domelights
The front domelight includes a central
and two reading lights.
The central light automatically turns
on when one of the doors is opened
and turns off when the door is closed
(timed switching off). The light may be
switched on manually by pressing the
central button.
The reading lights are controlled by
the respective side buttons.
If they are turned on by pressing the
button, both central and reading lights
will stay on for about 15 minutes afterturning the engine off, and will then
turn off gradually.
When the exterior lights are switched
on, the two night LEDs fitted on the
side of the lateral buttons will light up
to facilitate use of the transmission
shift lever and the central console
controls.
In the event of a collision causing the
inertia switch activation, the
domelights turn on automatically for
approx. 15 minutes.
If one or more doors are opened, the
front and rear domelights will turn on
for approx. 3 minutes. If the door is
closed before this time, the lights will
dim and subsequently switch off after
about 10 seconds.

HomeLink®replaces up to three
hand-held transmitters operating the
automatic devices that open garage
doors and gates, enable/disable the
lighting or security systems. The
HomeLink
®unit is powered by your
vehicle's 12 Volt battery. The
HomeLink

the control panel behind the driver's
side sun visor designate the three
different HomeLink
®channels.
The HomeLink®LED is located above
the central button.
HomeLink

vehicle security alarm is active (see
“Vehicle security alarm” in section
“Before Starting”).
WARNING!
Vehicle exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, a dangerous gas. Do not
run your vehicle in the garage while
programming the transceiver. Exhaust
gas can cause serious injury or death.
Customer Service
If you have problems with training the
HomeLink Universal Transceiver, or
would like information on home
products that can be operated by the
transmitter, call (800) 355-3515. On the
Internet, go to www.Homelink.com.
Safety Precautions
Always refer to the operating
instructions and safety information
that came with your garage door
opener or other equipment you intend
to operate with the HomeLink
Universal Transceiver. If you do not
have this information, you should
contact the manufacturer of the
equipment.
While training or using HomeLink

General Information
While programming HomeLink®,itis
advisable to disconnect the drive
motor of the gate/door to be remote
controlled, since the numerous driving
pulses launched for this operation
might damage it.
If the battery fails or is disconnected,
the stored settings are not deleted.
If the gate/door was manufactured
prior to April 1982 (not equipped with
safety systems or automatic stop in the
event of an obstacle in the range of
action), the gate/door cannot be
controlled by HomeLink
®.
If you have questions, call (800)

Programming
• Press and hold buttons "1" and "3".
• After about 20 seconds, the LED
starts flashing.
• Release the buttons.
• Hold the remote control for the
device to be controlled close to the
HomeLink
®control panel (0-30 cm/
0-12 in).
• Simultaneously press and hold the
button on the hand-held remote
control and one of the three
HomeLink
®buttons "1", "2" or "3".
• Successful programming is signaled
by the LED flashing faster.
• Release the buttons.
To program the other buttons, repeat
the operations skipping the first three
steps.
Use
• When the signal of the device to be
activated reaches its operatingrange, press the dedicated
HomeLink
®button.
• The LED remains on while the signal
is being transmitted.
The devices controlled through the
HomeLink
®function can always be
activated using the original remote
controls.
Should the so programmed
HomeLink
®not activate the system to
be controlled, this may be due to the
fact that this system is controlled by a
remote control with a rolling code.
A rolling activation code can be
recognized in the following ways:
• consulting the instruction manual
provided with the device to be
controlled;
• despite the fact that the HomeLink
®
programming procedure has been
carried out correctly, the HomeLink®
function does not activate the
device;
• holding the dedicated HomeLink
®
button pressed down, the LED
briefly flashes fast and then remains
on for 2 seconds; this sequence is
repeated for about 20 seconds.
