of these features:
•
Driver seat.
• Power mirrors.
MEMORY FUNCTION
PRECAUTIONS WARNING: Before activating the
memory seat, make sure that the area
immediately surrounding the seat is clear
of obstructions and that all occupants
are clear of moving parts. WARNING:
Do not use the memory
function when your vehicle is moving.
LOCATING THE MEMORY
FUNCTION BUTTONS The memory function buttons are on the
driver door. SAVING A PRESET POSITION
1. Switch the ignition on.
2. Adjust the memory features to your
preferred position.

A confirmation message appears in the
information display.
You can save up to three preset memory
positions at any time.
RECALLING A PRESET
POSITION
Press and release the preset button.
Note: You can only recall a preset memory
position when the ignition is off, or when you
place the transmission in park (P) or neutral
(N) if the ignition is on and the vehicle is not
moving.
You can also recall a preset memory
position by:
• Pressing the unlock button on your
remote control if you linked it to a
preset position.
• Unlocking the intelligent driver door
handle if a linked remote control is
present.
Using a linked remote control to recall your
memory position when the ignition is off
moves the seat to the easy entry position.
Note: Pressing any active memory feature
adjustment control, or any preset buttons
during a memory recall cancels the
operation.

WHAT IS THE GARAGE DOOR
OPENER
HomeLink Wireless Control
System
The universal garage door opener replaces
the common hand-held garage door
opener with a three-button transmitter
integrated into the driver
’s sun visor.
HOW DOES THE GARAGE
DOOR OPENER WORK
The system includes two primary features,
a garage door opener and a platform for
remote activation of devices within the
home. You can program garage doors as
well as entry gate operators, security
systems, entry door locks and home or
office lighting.
Additional system information can be
found online at www.homelink.com or by
calling the toll-free help line at
1-800-355-3515.
Note: You can program a maximum of
three devices. To change or replace any of
the three devices after it has been initially
programmed, you must first erase the
current settings. See Clearing the Garage
Door Opener (page 164). GARAGE DOOR OPENER
PRECAUTIONS WARNING:
Do not use the system
with any garage door opener that does
not have the safety stop and reverse
feature as required by U.S. Federal
Safety Standards (this includes any
garage door opener manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage door
opener which cannot detect an object,
signaling the door to stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal safety
standards. Using a garage door opener
without these features increases the risk
of serious injury or death.
Note: Make sure that the garage door and
security device are free from obstruction
when you are programming. Do not program
the system with your vehicle in the garage.
Note: Make sure you keep the original
remote control transmitter for use in other
vehicles as well as for future system
programming.
Note: We recommend that upon the sale
or lease termination of your vehicle, you
erase the programmed function buttons for
security reasons. See Clearing the Garage
Door Opener
(page 164).
GARAGE DOOR OPENER
LIMITATIONS
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to time-out (or quit)
after several seconds – which may not be
long enough for HomeLink to pick up the
signal.
U.S. gate operators time-out in the same
manner.

ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (If
Equipped)
Engine Block Heater Precautions
WARNING: Failure to follow engine
block heater instructions could result in
property damage or serious personal
injury. WARNING: Do not use your heater
with ungrounded electrical systems or
two-pronged adapters. There is a risk of
electrical shock. WARNING:
Do not fully close the
hood, or allow it to drop under its own
weight when using the engine block
heater. This could damage the power
cable and may cause an electrical short
resulting in fire, injury and property
damage.
We recommend that you do the following
for a safe and correct operation:
• Use a 16-gauge outdoor extension cord
that is product certified by
Underwriter ’s Laboratory (UL) or
Canadian Standards Association
(CSA). This extension cord must be
suitable for use outdoors, in cold
temperatures, and be clearly marked
Suitable for Use with Outdoor
Appliances. Do not use an indoor
extension cord outdoors. This could
result in an electric shock or become a
fire hazard.
• Use as short an extension cord as
possible.
• Do not use multiple extension cords. •
Make sure that when in operation, the
extension cord plug and engine block
heater cord plug connections are free
and clear of water. This could cause an
electric shock or fire.
• If the engine block heater cord is under
the hood, do not remove the wiring
from its original location. Do not close
the hood on the extension wiring.
• Park your vehicle in a clean area, clear
of combustible materials.
• Firmly connect the engine block heater
cord and the extension cord.
• Check the extension cord for heat
anywhere when the system has been
operating for approximately 30
minutes.
• Unplug and properly stow the system
before starting and driving your vehicle.
The protective cover seals the
terminals of the engine block heater
cord plug when not in use.
• Check the engine block heater system
for proper operation before winter.
How Does the Engine Block Heater
Work
The engine block heater warms the engine
coolant. This allows the climate control
system to quickly respond. The equipment
includes a heater element installed in the
engine block and a wire harness. You can
connect the system to a grounded
220-240 volt AC electrical source.
Note: The engine block heater is most
effective when outdoor temperatures are
below
0°F (-18°C).
Using the Engine Block Heater
Make sure the receptacle terminals are
clean and dry prior to use. Clean them with
a dry cloth if necessary.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: When your vehicle is
stationary, keep the brake pedal fully
pressed when shifting gears. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in
personal injury, death or property
damage. WARNING:
Do not apply the brake
pedal and accelerator pedal
simultaneously. Applying both pedals
simultaneously for more than a few
seconds will limit power, which may
result in difficulty maintaining speed in
traffic and could lead to serious injury.
Note: You may not be able to shift out of
park (P) unless the intelligent access key is
inside your vehicle.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
POSITIONS
Park (P)
This position locks the driveline and
prevents the wheels from turning.
The engine can start with the shifter in this
position.
The electric parking brake could apply if:
• You shift to park (P) on a slope.
• You shift to park (P) without the brake
pedal fully pressed.
Note: A warning tone sounds if you open
the driver door and you have not shifted the
transmission selector to park (P). Reverse (R)
This position allows your vehicle to move
backward. Come to a complete stop
before shifting into and out of reverse (R).
Neutral (N) WARNING:
In neutral (N) your
vehicle has the ability to roll freely. If you
intend to leave your vehicle, make sure
you apply the parking brake.
This position allows your vehicle to roll
freely. Hold the brake pedal down when in
this position.
The engine can start with the shifter in this
position.
Drive (D)
This position, drive (D), is the normal
driving position, and allows your vehicle to
move forward.
Low (L)
This mode is for driving on steep slopes.
The transmission will hold low gear for
maximum torque driving uphill and
maximum engine braking driving downhill.
You can enter this mode at any vehicle
speed.
Note: Prolonged use of this mode could
lower fuel economy. With your vehicle in
drive (D), press the L button to enter this
mode.
