FRONT SEAT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

Sitting improperly, out

of position or with the seatback reclined
too far can take weight off the seat
cushion and affect the decision of the
passenger sensing system, resulting in
serious injury or death in the event of a
crash. Always sit upright against your
seat back, with your feet on the floor.

WARNING:

Do not recline the seat

backrest too far as this can cause the
occupant to slide under the seatbelt,
resulting in personal injury in the event
of a crash.

WARNING:

Do not place objects

higher than the top of the seat backrest.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury or death in the
event of a sudden stop or crash.

WARNING:

Do not adjust the driver

seat or seat backrest when your vehicle
is moving. This may result in sudden seat
movement, causing the loss of control
of your vehicle.

SITTING IN THE CORRECT

POSITION

When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, seatbelt and airbags will
provide optimum protection in the event
of a crash.

We recommend that you follow these
guidelines:

•

Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.

•

Do not recline the seat backrest so that
your torso is more than 30 degrees
from the upright position.

•

Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of it is level with the top of your
head and as far forward as possible.
Make sure that you remain
comfortable.

•

Keep sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. We
recommend a minimum of 10 in
(25 cm) between your breastbone and
the airbag cover.

•

Hold the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent.

148

Front Seats

•

Bend your legs slightly so that you can
press the pedals fully.

•

Position the shoulder strap of the
seatbelt over the center of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips.

Make sure that your driving position is
comfortable and that you can maintain full
control of your vehicle.

WORK

The system monitors when rear doors have
been opened and closed to indicate the

or sounded.

REAR OCCUPANT ALERT

SYSTEM PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

On hot days, the

temperature inside the vehicle can rise
very quickly. Exposure of people or
animals to these high temperatures for
even a short time can cause death or
serious heat related injuries, including
brain damage. Small children are
particularly at risk.

WARNING:

Do not leave children

or pets unattended in your vehicle.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury or death.

REAR OCCUPANT ALERT

It is possible to receive an alert when

there is no rear seat occupant, but alert
conditions are met.

Note:

It is possible to receive no alert when

there is an occupant in the rear seat, if alert
conditions are not met. For example, if a rear
seat occupant does not enter the vehicle

of these features:

•

Driver seat.

•

Power mirrors.

MEMORY FUNCTION

PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

Before activating the

memory seat, make sure that the area
immediately surrounding the seat is clear
of obstructions and that all occupants
are clear of moving parts.

WARNING:

Do not use the memory

function when your vehicle is moving.

WHAT IS THE GARAGE DOOR

OPENER

HomeLink Wireless Control

System

E18821

E188211

The universal garage door opener replaces
the common hand-held garage door
opener with a three-button transmitter
integrated into the driver’s sun visor.

HOW DOES THE GARAGE

DOOR OPENER WORK

The system includes two primary features,
a garage door opener and a platform for
remote activation of devices within the
home. You can program garage doors as
well as entry gate operators, security
systems, entry door locks and home or
office lighting.

Additional system information can be
found online at www.homelink.com or by
calling the toll-free help line at
1-800-355-3515.

Note:

You can program a maximum of

three devices. To change or replace any of
the three devices after it has been initially
programmed, you must first erase the
current settings. See

Clearing the Garage

Door Opener

(page 164).

GARAGE DOOR OPENER

PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

Do not use the system

with any garage door opener that does
not have the safety stop and reverse
feature as required by U.S. Federal
Safety Standards (this includes any
garage door opener manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage door
opener which cannot detect an object,
signaling the door to stop and reverse,
does not meet current federal safety
standards. Using a garage door opener
without these features increases the risk
of serious injury or death.

Note:

Make sure that the garage door and

security device are free from obstruction
when you are programming. Do not program
the system with your vehicle in the garage.

Note:

Make sure you keep the original

remote control transmitter for use in other
vehicles as well as for future system
programming.

Note:

We recommend that upon the sale

or lease termination of your vehicle, you
erase the programmed function buttons for
security reasons. See

Clearing the Garage

Door Opener

(page 164).

GARAGE DOOR OPENER

LIMITATIONS

Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to time-out (or quit)
after several seconds – which may not be
long enough for HomeLink to pick up the
signal.

U.S. gate operators time-out in the same
manner.

162

Garage Door Opener

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.

PROGRAMMING THE GARAGE

DOOR OPENER TO YOUR

HAND-HELD TRANSMITTER

This process is to program your in-vehicle
HomeLink function button with your
hand-held transmitter.

Note:

The programming steps below

assume you will be programming HomeLink
that was not previously programmed. If your
HomeLink was previously programmed, you
may need to erase your HomeLink buttons.
See

Clearing the Garage Door Opener

(page 164).

E188212

With your vehicle parked outside of the
garage, switch your ignition to the on
position, but do not start your vehicle.

2. Press and release one of the three

HomeLink function buttons that you
would like to program.

3. Hold your hand-held garage door

transmitter 1–3 in (2–8 cm) away from
the HomeLink button you want to
program.

4. Press and hold the hand-held

transmitter button you want to
program while watching the indicator
light on HomeLink. Continue to hold
the hand-held button until the
HomeLink indicator light flashes rapidly
or is continuously on.

Note:

You may need to use a different

method if you live in Canada or have
difficulties programming your gate operator
or garage door opener. See

Programming

the Garage Door Opener to Your Gate
Opener Motor

(page 164).

5. Press and hold the HomeLink button

you programmed for two seconds, then
release. You may need to do this twice
to activate the door.

Note:

If the indicator light stays on, the

programming is complete.

Note:

If the HomeLink indicator flashes

rapidly, repeat step 5.

Note:

If your device still does not operate,

you must program your garage door. See

Programming the Garage Door Opener to
Your Garage Door Opener Motor

(page

163).

Steps 1 – 4.
