Mirrors

Inside rearview mirror

Before driving your vehicle, check to see that your inside rearview mirror is properly

positioned. Adjust the rearview mirror so that the view through the rear window is

properly centered.

WARNING

Make sure your line of sight is not obstructed. Do not place objects in the rear seat, cargo

area, or behind the rear head restraints that may interfere with your vision through the

rear window.

WARNING

To prevent serious injury during a collision or deployment of the airbag, do not modify the

rearview mirror and do not install a wide mirror.

WARNING

Never adjust the mirror while driving. This may cause loss of vehicle control and result in a

collision.

NOTICE

When cleaning the mirror, use a paper towel or similar material dampened with glass

cleaner. Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the mirror as this may cause the liquid

cleaner to enter the mirror housing.

Automatic-Dimming Night Vision Safety™ (NVS®) Mirror

if equipped

The NVS® Mirror automatically reduces glare by monitoring light levels in the front and

the rear of the vehicle. Any object that obstructs either light sensor will degrade the

automatic dimming control feature.

For more information regarding NVS® mirrors and other applications, please refer to the

Gentex website:

www.gentex.com

Your mirror will automatically dim upon detecting glare from the vehicles traveling behind

you.

The mirror defaults to the ON position each time the vehicle is started.

Integrated HomeLink® Wireless Control System

The HomeLink® Wireless Control System provides a convenient way to replace up to three

handheld radio-frequency transmitters used to activate compatible devices such as gate

operators, garage door openers, entry door locks, security systems, and home lighting.

NOTICE

HomeLink® operates while the Start/Stop button is in the ACC or ON position for safety

reasons. It is to prevent unintentional security problems from happening when the vehicle

is parked outside the garage.

WARNING

Before programming HomeLink® to a garage door opener or gate operator, make sure

people and objects are out of the way of the device to prevent potential harm or damage.

Do not use the HomeLink® with any garage door opener that lacks the safety stop and

reverse features required by U.S. federal safety standards (this includes any garage door

opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door that cannot detect an

object-signaling the door to stop and reverse-does not meet current U.S. federal safety

standards. Using a garage door opener without these features increases the risk of serious

injury or death.

For more information, contact HomeLink® at www.homelink.com, or call Home-Link

customer support at 1-800-355-3515.

It is also recommended that a new battery be replaced in the handheld transmitter of the

device being trained to HomeLink® for quicker training and accurate transmission of the

radio frequency.

indicator light (7) light changes from orange to green. You may now release the

handheld remote button.

proceeding to the next steps.

indicator light.

• If the indicator light remains solid green, your device should operate when the

HomeLink button is pressed. At this point, if your device operates, programming is

complete.

• If the indicator light rapidly flashes green, firmly press, hold for two seconds and

release the HomeLink button up to three times in a row slowly to complete the

programming process. Do not press the HomeLink button rapidly. At this point if

186 Convenience Features

your device operates, programming is complete. If the device does not operate,

continue with step 6.

6 At the garage door opener motor, (security gate motor, etc.) locate the 'Learn', 'Smart',

'Set' or 'Program' button. This can usually be found where the hanging antenna wire is

attached to the motor-head unit (see the device's manual to identify this button). The

name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer.

[A] Learn button

• A ladder and/or second person may simplify the following steps.

Firmly press and release the 'Learn', 'Smart', 'Set' or 'Program' button. You now have up

to 30 seconds in which to complete the next step.

8 Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two seconds and release, the HomeLink

button up to three times in a row slowly. Do not press the HomeLink button rapidly.

As soon as you see the garage door start to move, stop pressing any buttons until a

few seconds after the garage door has come to a complete stop, regardless of position.

At this point, programming is complete and your device should operate when the

HomeLink button is pressed and released.

3) Two-Way Communication Programming (For select garage door openers)

If your garage door opener has the 'myQ' logo on its side, your opener likely has

Two-Way Communication capability. HomeLink has the capability to establish Two-Way

Communication with your garage door opener. HomeLink can receive and display

“closing” or “opening” status messages from compatible garage door openers. At any

time, Home-Link can also recall and display the last recorded status communicated by

the garage door opener to indicate your garage door being “closed” or “opened”.

To check if your garage door opener is compatible with this feature, refer to

www.homelink.com/compatible/Two-way-Communication. If your garage door opener

has this functionality, AND the Two-Way Communication indicators (4), (6) in the mirror

appear while the garage door is opening/closing, then no further steps are needed.

Two-Way Communication Programming is already complete. However, if your garage

door opener has this functionality, AND the Two-Way Communication indicators (4), (6)

in the mirror DO NOT appear while the garage door is opening/closing, use the following

instructions to enable this functionality.

Convenience Features 187

1

In your vehicle, press and hold the programmed HomeLink button for 2 seconds, then

release. Confirm that the garage door is moving. AFTER it stops, you will have one

minute to complete the following steps:

• A ladder and/or second person may simplify the following steps.

2 On your garage door opener in your garage, locate the 'Learn' button (usually near

where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the garage door opener). If there is

difficulty locating this button, reference the device's owner's manual.

3 Press and release the 'Learn' button.

4 A light on your garage door opener may flash, and your Two-Way Communication

indicators (4), (6) in your vehicle may flash, confirming completion of the process.

5 Return to the vehicle and firmly press and release the programmed HomeLink button

to activate your garage door. The Two-Way Communication indicators (4), (6) flash

in orange when the door is moving. Do not make any additional button presses until

AFTER the garage door has come to a complete stop.

6 Your Two-Way Communication programming is now complete.

Information

If your garage door opener has Two-Way Communication functionality, it is possible for

HomeLink to stop functioning the garage door shortly after initial programming, IF the

Two-Way Communication Programming wasn't properly completed. This usually happens

after the first 10 times a programmed HomeLink button is pressed. If you experience this,

completing the “Programming a New HomeLink Button” and “Two-Way Communication

Programming” will restore door operation.

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 handheld remote button. Then

proceed with “Programming a New HomeLink Button” step 4.
