HomeLink® Buttons And Indicator Light

Use this QR code to access your

digital experience.

HomeLink® replaces up to

three hand-held transmitters

that operate devices such as

garage door openers, motor

-

ized gates, lighting, or home

security systems. The HomeLink® unit is

powered by your vehicle’s 12 Volt battery.

The HomeLink® buttons that are located in the

overhead console or sunvisor designate the

three different HomeLink® channels.

To operate HomeLink®, push and release any

of the programmed HomeLink® buttons. These

buttons will activate the devices they are

programmed to with each press of the corre

-

sponding HomeLink® button.

The HomeLink® indicator light is located above

the center button.

NOTE:

HomeLink® is disabled when the Vehicle Security

system is active

For efficient programming and accurate

transmission of the Radio Frequency (RF) signal, it

is recommended that a new battery be placed in

the hand-held transmitter of the device that is

being programmed to the HomeLink® system.

Make sure your hand-held transmitter is

programmed to activate the device you are trying

to program your HomeLink® button to.
Ensure that your vehicle is parked outside of the

garage before you begin programming.
It is recommended that you erase all the channels

of your HomeLink® before you use it for the first

time.

Before programming a device to one of your

HomeLink® buttons, you must determine whether

the device has a rolling code or non-rolling code.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

41

Rolling Code Devices
To determine if your device has a rolling code, a

good indicator is its manufacturing date. Typically,

devices manufactured after 1995 have rolling

codes. A device with a rolling code will also have a

“LEARN” or “TRAIN” button located where the

antenna is attached to the device. The button may

not be immediately visible when looking at the

device. The name and color of the button may vary

slightly by manufacturer.
NOTE:

The “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button is not the button

you normally use to operate the device.
Non-rolling Code Devices
Most devices manufactured before 1995 will not

have a rolling code. These devices will also not

have a “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button.

To program any of the HomeLink® buttons to

activate your garage door opener motor, follow the

steps below:
NOTE:

All HomeLink® buttons are programmed using this

procedure. You do not need to erase all channels

when programming additional buttons.

1. Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN

position.

2. Place the garage door opener transmitter 1 to

3 inches (3 to 8 cm) away from the

HomeLink® button you wish to program, while

keeping the HomeLink® indicator light in view.

3. Push and hold the HomeLink® button you

want to program while you push and hold the

garage door opener transmitter button you are

trying to replicate.

4. Continue to hold both buttons and observe the

HomeLink® indicator light. The HomeLink®

indicator light will flash slowly and then rapidly.

Once this happens, release both buttons.

NOTE:

Make sure the garage door opener motor is

plugged in before moving on to the rolling code/

non-rolling code final steps.
Rolling Code Garage Door Opener Final Steps
NOTE:

You have 30 seconds in which to initiate rolling

code final step 2, after completing rolling code

final step 1.

1. At the garage door opener motor (in the

garage), locate the “LEARN” or “TRAIN”

button. This can usually be found where the

hanging antenna wire is attached to the

garage door opener motor. Firmly push and

release the “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button.

2. Return to the vehicle and push the

programmed HomeLink® button three times

(holding the button for two seconds each

time). If the garage door opener motor

operates, programming is complete.

3. Push the programmed HomeLink® button to

confirm that the garage door opener motor

operates. If the garage door opener motor

does not operate, repeat the final steps for the

rolling code procedure.

Non-Rolling Code Garage Door Opener Final Steps
1. Push and hold the programmed HomeLink®

button and observe the HomeLink® indicator

ROGRAMMING

For programming transmitters in Canada/United

States that require the transmitter signals to

“time-out” after several seconds of transmission:
Canadian Radio Frequency (RF) 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.
It may be helpful to unplug the device during the

cycling process to prevent possible overheating of

the garage door or gate motor.
1. Place the ignition in the ON/RUN position.
NOTE:

For vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter ‘n Go™,

place the ignition in the RUN position. Make sure

while programming HomeLink® with the engine on

that your vehicle is outside of your garage, or that

the garage door remains open at all times.

WARNING!

Your motorized door or gate will open and close

while you are programming the universal trans

-

mitter. Do not program the transmitter if people

or pets are in the path of the door or gate.

Do not run your vehicle in a closed garage or

confined area while programming the trans

-

mitter. Exhaust gas from your vehicle contains

Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is odorless and

colorless. Carbon Monoxide is poisonous

when inhaled and can cause you and others to

be severely injured or killed.

you wish to program while keeping the

HomeLink® indicator light in view.

3. Continue to push and hold the HomeLink®

button while you push and release (cycle) your

hand-held transmitter every two seconds until

HomeLink® has successfully accepted the

frequency signal. The indicator light will flash

slowly and then rapidly when fully trained.

4. Watch for the HomeLink® indicator to change

flash rates. When it changes, it is

programmed. It may take up to 30 seconds or

longer in rare cases. The garage door may

open and close while you are programming.

5. Push and hold the programmed HomeLink®

button and observe the indicator light.
NOTE:

If the indicator light stays on constantly,

programming is complete and the garage

door/device should activate when the

HomeLink® button is pushed.

To program the two remaining HomeLink®

buttons, repeat each step for each

remaining button. DO NOT erase the chan

Mode Control

Select Mode by pressing one of the

Mode buttons on the touchscreen to

change the airflow distribution mode.

The airflow distribution mode can be

adjusted so air comes from the instrument panel

outlets, floor outlets, defrost outlets, and demist

outlets.

Panel Mode

Air comes from the outlets in the

instrument panel. Each of these outlets

can be individually adjusted to direct the

flow of air. The air vanes of the center

outlets and outboard outlets can be moved up and

down or side to side to regulate airflow direction.

There is a shut-off wheel located below the air

vanes to shut off or adjust the amount of airflow

from these outlets.

Bi-Level Mode

Air comes from the instrument panel

outlets and floor outlets. A slight amount

of air is directed through the defrost and

side window demister outlets.

NOTE:

Bi-Level mode is designed under comfort condi

-

tions to provide cooler air out of the panel outlets

and warmer air from the floor outlets.

Floor Mode

Air comes from the floor outlets. A slight

amount of air is directed through the

defrost and side window demister

outlets.

Mix Mode

Air is directed through the floor, defrost,

and side window demister outlets. This

setting works best in cold or snowy

conditions that require extra heat to the

windshield. This setting is good for maintaining

comfort while reducing moisture on the

windshield.

Climate Control OFF Button

Refer to the chart at the end of this section for

suggested control settings for various weather

conditions.

Summer Operation

The engine cooling system must be protected with

a high-quality antifreeze coolant to provide proper

corrosion protection and to protect against engine

overheating. OAT coolant (conforming to

MS.90032) is recommended.

Winter Operation

To ensure the best possible heater and defroster

performance, make sure the engine cooling

system is functioning properly and the proper

amount, type, and concentration of coolant is

used. Use of the Air Recirculation mode during

Winter months is not recommended, because it

may cause window fogging.

Vacation/Storage

For information on maintaining the Climate Control

system when the vehicle is being stored for an

extended period of time, see

Ú

page 260.

Window Fogging

Vehicle windows tend to fog on the inside in mild,

rainy, and/or humid weather. To clear the

windows, select Defrost or Mix mode and increase

the front blower speed. Do not use the

Recirculation mode without A/C for long periods,

as fogging may occur.

Outside Air Intake

Make sure the air intake, located directly in front of

the windshield, is free of obstructions, such as

leaves. Leaves collected in the air intake may

reduce airflow, and if they enter the air distribution

box, they could plug the water drains. In Winter

months, make sure the air intake is clear of ice,

slush, and snow.

Cabin Air Filter

The Climate Control system filters out dust and

pollen from the air. Contact an authorized dealer to

service your cabin air filter, and to have it replaced

when needed.
