WARNING!


Vehicle exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a danger- ous gas. Do not run your vehicle in the garage while training the transceiver. Exhaust gas can cause seri- ous injury or death.


Programming HomeLinkT


Before You Begin If you have not trained any of the HomeLinkt buttons, erase all channels before you begin training. To do this, press and hold the two outside buttons for 20
seconds. The EVIC will display “CLEARING CHAN- NELS.” Release the buttons when the EVIC message states “CHANNELS CLEARED.”


It is recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLinkt for more efficient training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal. Your vehicle should be parked outside of the garage while training. 1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position. 2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1–3 inches (3–8 cm) from the HomeLinkt buttons while keeping the EVIC display in view. For optimal training, point the battery end of the hand- held transmitter away from the HomeLinkt. 3. Simultaneously press and hold both the chosen HomeLinkt button and the hand-held transmitter button until the EVIC display changes from “CHANNEL # TRAINING” to “CHANNEL # TRAINED.”


Then release both the HomeLinkt and hand-held trans- mitter buttons. If the EVIC display states “DID NOT TRAIN” repeat Step 3. If the signal is too weak, replace the battery in the original hand-held transmitter. It may take up to 30 seconds, or longer in rare cases. The garage door may open & close while you train. NOTE: Some gate operators and garage door openers may require you to replace Step #3 with procedures noted in the “Gate Operator/Canadian Programming” section. 4. Press and hold the just-trained HomeLinkt button. If the channel has been trained, the EVIC display will now state “CHANNEL # TRANSMIT.”


UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 161


If the EVIC display still states “CHANNEL # TRAIN- ING” repeat Step 3. NOTE: After training a HomeLinkt channel, if the garage door does not operate with HomeLinkt and the garage door opener was manufactured after 1995, the garage door opener may have rolling code. If so, proceed to the heading “Programming A Rolling Code System.” 5. PROGRAMMING A ROLLING CODE SYSTEM At the garage door opener motor (in the garage), locate the “learn” or “training” button.


162 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE


This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the garage door opener motor (it is NOT the button normally used to open & close the door).


1 — Garage Door Opener 2 — Training Button


6. Firmly press and release the “learn” or “training” button. The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer. NOTE: There are 30 seconds in which to initiate the next step after the “Learn” button has been pressed. 7. Return to the vehicle and press the programmed HomeLinkt button twice (holding the button for 2 sec- onds each time). If the device is plugged in and activates, programming is complete. If the device does not activate, press the button a third time (for 2 seconds) to complete the training. If you are have any problems, or require assistance, please call toll-free 1–800–355–3515 or, on the Internet at www.HomeLink.com for information or assistance. To program the remaining two HomeLinkt buttons, repeat each step for each remaining button. DO NOT erase the channels.


Gate Operator/Canadian Programming Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter sig- nals to “time-out” (or quit) after several seconds of transmission – which may not be long enough for HomeLinkt 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. If you are having difficulties programming a garage door opener or a gate operator, replace “Programming HomeLink” Step 3 with the following: 3. Continue to press and hold the HomeLinkt button while you press and release - every two seconds (“cycle”) your hand-held transmitter until HomeLinkt


UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 163


has successfully accepted the frequency signal. The EVIC display will change from “CHANNEL # TRAIN- ING” to “CHANNEL # TRAINED.” If you unplugged the device for training, plug it back in at this time. Then proceed with Step 4 under “Programming HomeLink.” earlier in this section. Using HomeLinkT To operate, simply press and release the programmed HomeLinkt button. Activation will now occur for the trained device (i.e. garage door opener, gate operator, security system, entry door lock, home/office lighting, etc. The hand-held transmitter of the device may also be used at any time.

CAUTION!


WARNING!


UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 179


Cargo must be securely tied before driving your vehicle. Improperly secured loads can fly off the vehicle, particularly at high speeds, resulting in per- sonal injury or property damage. Follow the roof rack “Cautions” when carrying cargo on your roof rack.


† To prevent damage to the roof of your vehicle, DO NOT carry any loads on the roof rack without cross rails installed. The load should be secured and placed on top of the cross rails, not directly on the roof. If it is necessary to place the load on the roof, place a blanket or some other protection between the load and the roof surface. † To avoid damage to the roof rack and vehicle, do not exceed the rated load capacity of your cross rail system or the roof rack system maximum load capacity of 150
lbs (68 kg). Always distribute heavy loads as evenly as possible and secure the load appropriately. † Long loads which extend over the windshield, such as wood panels or surfboards, should be secured to both the front and rear of the vehicle. † Travel at reduced speeds and turn corners carefully when carrying large or heavy loads on the roof rack. Wind forces, due to natural causes or nearby truck traffic, can add sudden upward loads. This is especially true on large flat loads and may result in damage to the cargo or your vehicle.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER


INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DESCRIPTION


1. Speedometer Indicates vehicle speed. 2. Brake Warning Light


The BRAKE warning light will come on when the ignition is first turned on, and stay on briefly as a bulb check. If the bulb does not come on during starting, have the bulb re- paired promptly. If the light stays on longer, it may be an indication that the parking brake has not been released. If the light remains on when the parking brake is off, it indicates a possible brake hydraulic system malfunction or low fluid level. In this case, the “Brake Warning Light” will remain on until the cause is corrected. If a brake malfunction is indicated, immediate repair is necessary and continued operation of the vehicle in this condition is dangerous.

3. Turn Signal Indicator Light


The arrow will flash with the exterior turn signal when the turn signal lever is operated.


If the vehicle electronics sense that the vehicle has traveled about one mile with the turn signals on, a chime will sound to alert you to turn the signals off. If either indicator flashes at a rapid rate, check for a defective outside light bulb. 4. High Beam Indicator Light


Indicates that headlights are on high beam.


5. Malfunction Indicator Light


This light is part of an onboard diagnostic system called OBD II that monitors engine and auto- matic transmission control systems. The light will illuminate when the key is in the ON position before


188 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL


engine start. If the bulb does not come on when turning the key from OFF to ON, have the condition checked promptly. Certain conditions such as a loose or missing gas cap, poor fuel quality, etc. may illuminate the light after engine start. The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on through several of your typical driving cycles. In most situations the vehicle will drive normally and will not require towing. The Malfunction Indicator Light flashes to alert you to serious conditions that could lead to immediate loss of power or severe catalytic converter damage. The vehicle should be serviced as soon as possible if this occurs. 6. Airbag Warning Light


This light turns on and remains on for 6 to 8
seconds as a bulb check when the ignition switch is first turned ON. If the light is not on


during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, have the system inspected by an authorized dealer as soon as possible. 7. Anti-Lock Brake Warning Light


This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System. The light will turn on when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position and may stay on for as long as four seconds. If the ABS light remains on or turns on while driving, it indicates that the Anti-Lock portion of the brake system is not functioning and that service is required. However, the conventional brake system will continue to operate normally if the BRAKE warning light is not on. If the ABS light is on, the brake system should be serviced as soon as possible to restore the benefits of Anti-Lock brakes. If the ABS light does not turn on when the Ignition switch is turned to the ON position, have the light inspected by an authorized dealer.


8. Tachometer The red segments indicate the maximum permissible engine revolutions-per-minute (r.p.m. x 1000) for each gear range. Before reaching the red area, ease up on the accelerator. 9. Security Alarm System Indicator Light — If Equipped This light will flash rapidly for approximately 15 seconds when the vehicle theft alarm is arming. The light will flash at a slower speed continuously after the alarm is set. The security light will also come on for about three seconds when the ignition is first turned on. 10. Oil Pressure Warning Light


This light shows low engine oil pressure. The light should turn on momentarily when the engine is started. If the light turns on while driving, stop the vehicle, and shut off the engine as soon as possible. A continuous chime will sound when this light turns on.


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 189


Do not operate the vehicle until the cause is corrected. This light does not show how much oil is in the engine. The engine oil level must be checked under the hood. 11. Electronic Stability Program (ESP) Indicator Light/Traction Control System (TCS) Indicator Light


This indicator light starts to flash as soon as the tires lose traction and the ESP system becomes active. The “ESP/TCS Indicator Light” also flashes when TCS is active. If the “ESP/TCS Indicator Light” begins to flash during acceleration, ease up on the accelerator and apply as little throttle as possible. Be sure to adapt your speed and driving to the prevailing road conditions. The “ESP/TCS Indicator Light” will flash any time the ESP or TCS is active and helping to improve vehicle stability. If the “ESP/TCS Indicator Light” is on solid, the ESP system has been turned off by the driver or a temporary condition exists that will not allow full ESP function.


190 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL


12. Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light


Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires are significantly under-inflated. Ac- cordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to over- heat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also


reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subse- quent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the sys- tem may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety


of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replace- ment or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 191


CAUTION!


The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system opera- tion or sensor damage may result when using re- placement equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style. After-market wheels can cause sensor damage. Do not use aftermarket tire sealants or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may result.


13. Temperature Gauge The temperature gauge shows engine coolant tempera- ture. Any reading within the normal range indicates that the engine cooling system is operating satisfactorily.


192 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL


The gauge pointer will likely indicate a higher tempera- ture when driving in hot weather, up mountain grades, or when towing a trailer. It should not be allowed to exceed the upper limits of the normal operating range.


CAUTION!


Driving with a hot engine cooling system could damage your vehicle. If temperature gauge reads (H), pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range. If the pointer remains on the “H”, and you hear continuous chimes, turn the engine off immediately, and call for service.


WARNING!


A hot engine cooling system is dangerous. You or others could be badly burned by steam or boiling coolant. If you decide to look under the hood your- self, refer to Section 7 of this manual. Follow the warnings under “Cooling System Pressure Cap.”


14. Electronic Vehicle Information Center Display When the appropriate conditions exist, this display shows the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) messages. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Cen- ter” later in this section. 15. TOW/HAUL Indicator Light


This light will illuminate when the TOW/ HAUL button has been selected. The TOW/ HAUL button is located in the center of the instrument panel (below the climate controls).


16. Electronic Stability Program (ESP) Warning Light/Brake Assist System (BAS) Warning Light


The ESP/BAS warning light in the instrument cluster comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position. The light should go out with the engine running. If the ESP/ BAS warning light comes on continuously with the engine running, a malfunction has been detected in either the ESP or the BAS system. If this light stays illuminated, have the ESP and BAS checked at your authorized dealer as soon as possible. 17. 4WD LOW Mode Indicator Light — If Equipped


This light alerts the driver that the vehicle is in the 4WD LOW mode. The front and rear drive- shafts are mechanically locked together forcing the front and rear wheels to rotate at the same speed.


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 193


18. Seat Belt Reminder Light


When the ignition switch is first turned ON, this light will turn on for 5 to 8 seconds as a bulb check. During the bulb check, if the driver’s seat belt is unbuckled, a chime will sound. After the bulb check or when driving, if the driver or front passenger seat belt remains unbuckled, the Seat Belt Warning Light will flash or remain on continuously. Refer to 9Enhanced Driver Seat Belt Reminder System (BeltAlert)9 in the Occupant Restraints section for more information. 19. Cruise Indicator Light


This indicator lights when the speed control system is turned ON.


20. Odometer The odometer shows the total distance the vehicle has been driven.


194 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL


U.S. federal regulations require that upon transfer of vehicle ownership, the seller certify to the purchaser the correct mileage that the vehicle has been driven. There- fore, if the odometer reading is changed during repair or replacement, be sure to keep a record of the reading before and after the service so that the correct mileage can be determined. 21. Transmission Range Indicator This display indicator shows the automatic transmission gear selection. 22. Fuel Gauge The pointer shows the level of fuel in the fuel tank when the ignition switch is in the ON position. 23. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Warning Light — If Equipped


This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control system. If a problem is detected the light will come on while the


engine is running. Cycle the ignition key when the vehicle has completely stopped and the gear selector is placed in the P (Park) position. The light should turn off. If the light remains lit with the engine running your vehicle will usually be drivable, however, see your dealer for service as soon as possible. If the light is flashing when the engine is running, immediate service is re- quired and you may experience reduced performance, an elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your vehicle may require towing. The light will come on when the ignition is first turned on and remain on briefly as a bulb check. If the light does not come on during starting, have the system checked by an authorized dealer. 24. Front Fog Light Indicator Light— If Equipped This light shows the front fog lights are ON.


25. Voltage Warning Light


This light monitors the electrical system voltage. The light should turn on momentarily as the engine is started. If the light stays on or turns on while driving, it indicates a problem with the charging system. Immediate service should be obtained. 26. Low Fuel Warning Light


When the fuel level reaches approximately 2.3 U.S. Gallons (8.7 Liters) this light will come on and remain on until fuel is added. The Low Fuel Warning Light may turn on and off again, especially during and after hard braking, accelerations, or turns. This occurs due to the shifting of the fuel in the tank. Also, a single chime will sound.

RADIO GENERAL INFORMATION


Radio Broadcast Signals Your new radio will provide excellent reception under most operating conditions. Like any system, however, car radios have performance limitations, due to mobile op- eration and natural phenomena, which might lead you to believe your sound system is malfunctioning. To help you understand and save you concern about these “ap- parent” malfunctions, you must understand a point or two about the transmission and reception of radio sig- nals.


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 211


FM Reception Because FM transmission is based on frequency varia- tions, interference that consists of amplitude variations can be filtered out, leaving the reception relatively clear, which is the major feature of FM radio. NOTE: The radio, steering wheel radio controls (if equipped), and 6 disc CD/DVD changer (if equipped) will remain active for up to 10 minutes after the ignition switch has been turned off. Opening a vehicle front door will cancel this feature.


Two Types of Signals There are two basic types of radio signals... AM or Amplitude Modulation, in which the transmitted sound causes the amplitude, or height, of the radio waves to vary... and FM or Frequency Modulation, in which the frequency of the wave is varied to carry the sound. Electrical Disturbances Radio waves may pick up electrical disturbances during transmission. They mainly affect the wave amplitude, and thus remain a part of the AM reception. They interfere very little with the frequency variations that carry the FM signal. AM Reception AM sound is based on wave amplitude, so AM reception can be disrupted by such things as lightning, power lines and neon signs.

Notes On Playing MP3/WMA Files The radio can play MP3/WMA files; however, acceptable MP3/WMA file recording media and formats are limited. When writing MP3/WMA files, pay attention to the following restrictions. Supported Media (Disc Types) The MP3/WMA file recording media supported by the radio are CDDA, CD-R, CD-RW, MP3,WMA, DVD Video, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, and CDDA+MP3. Supported Medium Formats (File Systems) The medium formats supported by the radio are ISO 9660
Level 1 and Level 2 and includes the Joliet extension. When reading discs recorded using formats other than ISO 9660 Level 1 and Level 2, the radio may fail to read files properly and may be unable to play the file nor- mally. UDF and Apple HFS formats are not supported. The radio uses the following limits for file systems:


† Maximum number of directory levels: 8
† Maximum number of files: 255
† Maximum number of folders: 100
† Maximum number of characters in file/folder names: † Level 1: 12 (including a separator 9.9 and a † Level 2: 31 (including a separator


3-character extension)


9.9 and a


3-character extension)


Multisession disc formats are supported by the radio. Multisession discs may contain combinations of normal CD audio tracks and computer files (including MP3/ WMA files). Discs created with an option such as 9keep disc open after writing9 are most likely multisession discs. The use of multisession for CD audio or MP3/ WMA playback may result in longer disc loading times.


UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL 223


If a disc contains multi formats, such as CD audio and mp3/wma tracks, the radio will only play the mp3/wma tracks on that disc. Supported MP3/WMA File Formats The radio will recognize only files with the *.MP3/WMA extension as MP3/WMA files. Non-MP3/WMA files named with the *.MP3/WMA extension may cause play- back problems. The radio is designed to recognize the file as an invalid MP3/WMA and will not play the file. When using the MP3/WMA encoder to compress audio data to an MP3/WMA file, the bit rate and sampling frequencies in the following table are supported. In addition, variable bit rates (VBR) are also supported. The majority of MP3/WMA files use a 44.1 kHz sampling rate and a 192, 160, 128, 96 or VBR bit rates.
