Information
• If the vehicle is not on level ground or
the battery power has been interrupted,
the distance to empty function may not
operate correctly.
• The distance to empty may differ
from the actual driving distance as it
is an estimate of the available driving
distance.
• The trip computer may not register
additional fuel if less than 2.4 gallons (9
liters) of fuel are added to the vehicle.
• The distance to empty may vary
significantly based on driving
conditions, driving habits, and
condition of the vehicle.
Fuel economy (for 12.3-inch 3D
cluster)

1) Programming Preparation
OJX1050293NOJX1050293N
1. When programming a garage door
opener, it is advised to park the
vehicle outside of the garage.2. It is recommended that a new battery
be placed in the handheld transmitter
of the device being programmed to
HomeLink for quicker training and
accurate transmission of the radio-
frequency signal.
3. Place the ignition switch to the ACC
(Accessory) position for programming
of HomeLink.
2) Programming a New HomeLink®
OJX1050294NOJX1050294N
1. Press and release the HomeLink
button (1), (2) or (3), you would like
to program. The HomeLink indicator
light (7) will flash orange slowly (if
not, perform the steps of “Erasing
HomeLink Buttons” section, and start
over).
OJX1050295NOJX1050295N
2. Position the garage door opener
remote 1–3 inches (2–8 cm) away from
the HoleLink buttons.

4) Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter remote signals to “time-
out” (or quit) after a couple seconds of
transmission, which may not be long
enough for HomeLink to pick up the signal
during programming.
If you live in Canada or you are having
difficulties programming a gate operator
or garage door opener by using the
programming procedures, replace
“Programming a New HomeLink Button”
step 3 with the following:
While the HomeLink indicator light (7) is
flashing orange, press and release (“cycle”)
your device’s handheld remote every two
seconds until the HomeLink indicator light
(7) changes from orange to green. You may
now release the hand-held remote button.
Then proceed with “Programming a New
HomeLink Button” step 4.
2. Operating HomeLink®
1) Operating HomeLink®
OJX1050294NOJX1050294N
1. Press and release the desired
programmed HomeLink button (1, 2
or 3).
Information
The HomeLink indicator (7) should
light green, solid or flashing, and your
programmed device should operate.
If your device does not operate, the
HomeLink programming was not
successful, and you’ll need to reprogram
the button.
2) Two-Way Communication Display
Behavior
ORG3050212NORG3050212N
1. Press and release one of the
programmed HomeLink buttons (1, 2
or 3).
OJX1050296NOJX1050296N
2. The indicator (4) and (6) operates as
below, if your garage door opener
has Two-Way Communication
functionality.
