Windshield Wipers and
Washer
▼Windshield Wipers and Washer
The ignition must be switched ON to
use the wipers.
WARNING
Use only windshield washer
fluid or
plain water in the reservoir:
Using radiator antifreeze as washer
fluid is dangerous. If sprayed on the
windshield, it will dirty the windshield,
affect your visibility, and could result in
an accident.
Only use windshield washer fluid
mixed with anti-freeze protection in
freezing weather conditions:
Using windshield washer fluid without
anti-freeze protection in freezing
weather conditions is dangerous as it
could freeze on the windshield and
block your vision which could cause an
accident. In addition, make sure the
windshield is sufficiently warmed using
the defroster before spraying the
washer fluid.
CAUTION
 When the wipers are not used during
freezing temperatures or for a long
time, the wiper rubber may adhere
to the glass. If the wipers are
operated while adhered to the glass,
it could damage the wiper rubber
and motor.
 If the wipers are operated while the
glass is dry, the glass could be
scratched and the wiper rubber
damaged. When the glass is dry,
spray washer
fluid before operating
the wipers.

NOTE
Depending on the hand-held
transmitter, it may be easier to do
the programming by holding it 15
to 20 cm (6 to 7.8 in) away from
the HomeLink button.
3. Press the hand-held transmitter button continuously until the
indicator light changes from amber
(flashing) to green (on/flashing).
NOTE
Some gate operators and garage
door openers may require you to
replace this Programming Step 3
with procedures noted in the “Gate
Operator/Canadian Programming”
section.
4. Press the HomeLink button again to check if the programming has been
completed.
If the indicator light remains on in
green, the programming is
complete and the device
becomes operational.
If the indicator light flashes
rapidly in green, firmly press and
hold the Homelink button and
release it after two seconds have
passed. Repeat this process up to
three times to complete the
programming. The device
becomes operational and
programming is complete. If the
device does not operate, go to
the next step.
5. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in the garage,
locate the “learn” or “smart” button.
This can usually be found where the
hanging antenna wire is attached to
the motor-head unit.
6. Firmly press and release the “learn” or “smart” button. (The name and
color of the button may vary by
manufacturer.)
NOTE
Complete the programming within
30 seconds.
7. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and hold the Homelink
button, and then release it after
two seconds have passed. Repeat
the “ press/hold/release ” sequence
a second time, and, depending on
the brand of the garage door
opener (or other rolling code
equipped device), repeat this
sequence a third time to complete
the programming process.
Press the programmed HomeLink
button and make sure that the
HomeLink System operates.
8. If the status indicator arrows are flashing , refer to Garage Door
Two-Way Communication.

▼Gate operator/Canadian
Programming
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.

If you live in Canada or are having
difficulties programming a gate
operator by using the programming
procedures (regardless of where you
live), replace Step 3 of Programming
the HomeLink System with the
following:
NOTE
If programming a garage door opener
or gate operator, it is advised to unplug
the device during the “cycling” process
to prevent possible overheating.
While the indicator light is flashing in
amber, press the button on the
hand-held transmitter for 2 seconds
and release it repeatedly until the
indicator light changes from amber to
green.
Go back to Step 4 of Programming the
HomeLink System to complete the
procedure.
▼ Operating the HomeLink System
Press the programmed HomeLink
button to operate a programmed
device.
▼Reprogramming the HomeLink
system
To program a device to HomeLink
using a HomeLink button previously
trained, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired
HomeLink button. DO NOT release
the button.
2. After 20 seconds, the indicator light
flashes in amber. After the indicator
light flashes, release the HomeLink
button.
3. Go back to Step 2 of Programming the HomeLink System to complete
the procedure.
NOTE
If the programming has not been
completed, the system returns to the
previous programming.

Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM)
*
▼Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
The BSM is designed to assist the driver
in checking the area to the rear of the
vehicle on both sides during lane
changes by notifying the driver of the
presence of vehicles approaching from
the rear in an adjacent lane.
BSM operation
The BSM detects vehicles approaching
from the rear while traveling in the
forward direction at a speed of 10
km/h (6.3 mph) or faster and notifies
the driver by turning on the BSM
warning indicator light and displaying
the vehicle detection screen.
If the turn signal lever is operated to
signal a turn in the direction in which
the BSM warning indicator light is
illuminated while the approaching
vehicle is detected, the BSM
notifies
the driver of possible danger flashing
on the BSM warning indicator light,
and by activating the warning sound
and the warning screen indicator
display.
The detection area on this system
covers the driving lanes on both sides
of the vehicle and from the rear part of
the front doors to about 50 m (164 ft)
behind the vehicle.

A vehicle is in the detection area at
the rear in an adjacent driving lane
but it does not approach. The BSM
determines the condition based on
radar detection data.
A vehicle is traveling alongside
your vehicle at nearly the same
speed for an extended period of
time.
Vehicles approaching in the
opposite direction.
A vehicle in an adjacent driving
lane is attempting to pass your
vehicle.
A vehicle is in an adjacent lane on
a road with extremely wide driving
lanes. The detection area of the
rear side radar sensor is set at the
road width of expressways.
In the following case, the flashing of
the BSM warning indicator light, and
the activation of the warning sound
and the warning screen indicator
display may not occur or they may be
delayed.
A vehicle makes a lane change
from a driving lane two lanes over
to an adjacent lane.
Driving on steep slopes.Crossing the summit of a hill or
mountain pass.
When there is a difference in the
height between your driving lane
and the adjacent lane.
Directly after the BSM system
becomes operable by changing the
setting.
If the road width is extremely
narrow, vehicles two lanes over may
be detected. The detection area of
the rear side radar sensor is set
according to the road width of
expressways.
The BSM warning indicator light may
turn on and the vehicle detection
screen may be displayed in the
display in reaction to stationary
objects (guardrails, tunnels,
sidewalls, and parked vehicles) on
the road or the roadside.
1. Objects such as guardrails and concrete walls running alongside
the vehicle.

1. Places where the width between
guardrails or walls on each side of
