Teen Driver if equipped, or tires.
Universal Remote System
SeeRadio Frequency Statement 0404.
Universal Remote System
Programming
If equipped, the Universal Garage Door
(Universal Remote) controls are located on
the infotainment screen.
This system can replace up to eight remote
control transmitters used to activate devices
such as garage door openers, security
systems, and home automation devices.
These instructions refer to a garage door
opener, but can be used for other devices. Do not use the Universal Remote system
with any garage door opener that does not
have the stop and reverse feature. This
includes any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982.
Keep the original hand-held transmitter for
use in other vehicles as well as for future
programming. Erase the programming when
vehicle ownership is terminated. See
“Erasing Universal Remotes.”
To program a garage door opener, park
outside directly in line with and facing the
garage door opener receiver. Clear all people
and objects away from the garage door.
Make sure the hand-held transmitter has a
new battery for quick and accurate
transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
Programming the Universal Remote
System
Programming involves time-sensitive actions
and may time out, requiring the procedure
to be repeated. Read these instructions
completely before programming the
Universal Remote system. It may help to
have another person assist with the
programming process. 1. On the infotainment home screen,
navigate to the Universal Remote
controls.
2. Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter about 3 to 8 cm (1 to 3 in)
away from the rear-view mirror. The
hand-held transmitter was supplied by
the manufacturer of the garage door
opener.
3. Select the “Add Remotes” option on the
infotainment screen.
4. Press and hold the hand-held transmitter button. Do not release the hand-held
transmitter button until “Signal Found”
appears on the infotainment screen.
5. Once the signal is found, test the Universal Remote System by pressing the
Test button. If your garage door moves,
then programming was successful. You
may need to press the Test button
several times. Indicate the successful
programming of a remote by pressing
the It Worked button. After successfully
programming a remote, there is no need
to complete Steps 6–10.

188 Driving and Operating
{Warning
Driving on frozen lakes, ponds, or rivers
can be dangerous. Ice conditions vary
greatly and the vehicle could fall through
the ice; you and your passengers could
drown. Drive your vehicle on safe
surfaces only.
Water Fording
Your vehicle is capable of driving across
water of varying depth, provided a ride
height is selected that gives enough ground
clearance. To adjust ride height, seeAir
Suspension 0211.
.Normal height ground clearance —Can
drive through water up to 66 cm
(26 in) deep
.Increased height ground clearance —Up
to 71 cm (28 in) deep
.Extract Mode (if equipped) —Up to
81 cm (32 in) deep
{Warning
Driving in water can cause loss of vehicle
control or vehicle damage. As water
depths increase, reduce the vehicle speed.
.Never drive through water deeper
than the driver’s side front gravel
guard behind the front tire.
.Be aware of submerged obstacles.
.Never open your doors while in water.
{Warning
Driving through flowing water can be
dangerous and have an unpredictable
effect on vehicle control. Even shallow
water can wash away the ground from
under your tires. Traction could be lost,
the vehicle could be swept downstream
or the vehicle could roll over. Do not
drive through rushing water.
Caution
Do not drive through standing water if it
is deep enough to cover the gravel
guards. Deep water can damage vehicle
parts.
Before driving in water:
.Determine the depth of the water.
.Enter the water slowly. Never exceed
5 km/h (3 mph) in water deeper than the
center of the front hubs.
.Always drive in the direction of the
current.
.Avoid oncoming vehicles, as they will
increase the water depth surrounding
your vehicle.
