WARNING
Before programing HomeLink® to a
garage door opener or gate operator,
make sure people and objects are out
of the way of the device to prevent
potential harm or damage. Do not
use the HomeLink® with any garage
door opener that lacks the safety
stop and reverse features required
by U.S. federal safety standards (this
includes any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982).
A garage door that cannot detect an
object - signaling the door to stop and
reverse - does not meet current U.S.
federal safety standards. Using a garage
door opener without these features
increases the risk of serious injury or
death.

Information
For some manufacturers’ cellular phones,
the system may not warn you even though
the cellular phone is left on the wireless
charging unit. This is due to the particular
characteristic of the cellular phone and
not a malfunction of the wireless charging.
NOTICE
• The wireless cellular phone charging system may not support certain
cellular phones, which are not
verified for the Qi specification (
).
• When placing your cellular phone on the charging mat, position the
phone in the middle of the mat for
optimal charging performance. If
your cellular phone is off to the side,
the charging rate may be less and in
some cases the cellular phone may
experience higher heat conduction.
• In some cases, the wireless char ging may stop temporarily when the
Remote Key or Smart Key is used,
either when starting the vehicle or
locking/unlocking the doors, etc.
• The wireless charging process may temporarily stop, when temperature
abnormally increases inside the
wireless cellular phone charging
system. Stop the charging cellular
phone and wait until temperature
falls to a certain level.
• The wireless charging process may temporarily stop when there is
any metallic item, such as a coin,
between the wireless cellular phone
charging system and the cellular
phone.
• When charging some cellular phones with a self-protection feature,
the wireless charging speed may
decrease and the wireless charging
may stop.
• If the cellular phone has a thick cover, the wireless charging may not
be possible.
• If the cellular phone is not completely contacting the charging
pad, wireless charging may not
operate properly.
• Some magnetic items like credit cards, phone cards or rail tickets may
be damaged if left with the cellular
phone during the charging process.
• When any cellular phone without a wireless charging function or a
metallic object is placed on the
charging pad, a small noise may
sound. This small sound is due to the
vehicle discerning compatibility of
the object placed on the charging
pad. It does not affect your vehicle or
the cellular phone in any way.
Information
If the ignition switch is in the LOCK/ OFF
position, the charging also stops.
