1-800-387-0100
WARNING
Before programming the integrated remote
control 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. When
programming a garage door opener, the door
moves up or down. When programming a gate
operator, the gate opens or closes.
Do not use the integrated remote control with any garage door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as 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.
When programming a garage door opener, park vehicle outside the garage.
Do not run the engine while programming the integrated remote control. Inhalation of exhaust gas is hazardous to your health. All exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide (CO), and inhaling it can cause unconsciousness and possible death. All exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide (CO), and inhaling it can cause unconsciousness and possible death.

Programming
WARNING
Only press the transmitter button on the
integrated garage door opener if there are no
persons or objects present within the sweep
of the garage door. People could otherwise be
injured by the movement of the door.
Integrated garage door opener on the rear-view mirror Garage door remote control 5 is not part of this integrated garage door opener.
To achieve the best result, insert new batteries in garage door remote control 5 before programming.
•► Before programming for the first time, clear the memory of the integrated garage door opener.
•► Turn the SmartKey to position 2 in the ignition lock.
•► Press and hold one of transmitter buttons 2 to 4 on the integrated garage door opener.
Indicator lamp : starts to flash yellow after a short period.
Indicator lamp 1 flashes yellow immediately after the transmitter button has been stored for the first time. If the transmitter button has already been programmed, indicator lamp 1 does not flash yellow until 10 seconds have elapsed.
•► Release the transmitter button.
•► Point transmitter button 6 of garage door remote control 5 towards the transmitter buttons on the rear-view mirror at a distance of 2 to 8 inches (5 to 20 cm).
The distance required between garage door remote control 5 and the integrated garage door opener depends on the system of the garage door drive. You might require several attempts. You should test every position for at least 25 seconds before trying another position.
•► Press and hold transmitter button 6 on garage door remote control 5 until indicator lamp 1 lights up green.
Programming is complete if indicator lamp 1 lights up or flashes green.
•► Release transmitter button 2, 3 or 5 on the integrated garage door opener and the transmitter button on garage door remote control 6.
If indicator lamp 1 lights up red:
•► Repeat the programming procedure for the transmitter button. When doing so, vary the distance between the garage door remote control and the rear-view mirror.
If the indicator lamp flashes green after successful programming, the garage door system is operating on a rolling code. After programming, you must synchronize the garage door opener integrated in the rearview mirror with the receiver of the garage door system.
Synchronizing the rolling code
Your vehicle must be within range of the garage or gate opener drive. Make sure that neither your vehicle nor any persons/objects are present within the sweep of the door or gate.
Observe the safety notes when performing the rolling code synchronization.
•► Turn the SmartKey to position 2 in the ignition lock.
•► Press the programming button of the door or gate drive (see the door or gate drive operating instructions, e.g. under "Programming of additional remote controls").
You now normally have 30 seconds to initiate the next step.
•► Press the previously programmed transmitter button of the HomeLink® integrated garage door opener repeatedly in succession until the door opens.
The rolling code synchronization is then complete.
Notes on programming the remote control
Canadian radio frequency laws require a "break" (or interruption) of the transmission signals after broadcasting for a few seconds.
These signals may not therefore last long enough for the integrated garage door opener to recognize the signal during programming.
Comparable with Canadian law, some U.S.
garage door openers also have a built-in "interruption".
If you live in Canada or have difficulties programming the garage door opener (regardless of where you live) when using the programming steps (see above), proceed as follows:
•► Press and hold one of transmitter buttons 2 to 4 of the integrated garage door opener.
Indicator lamp 1 starts to flash yellow after a short period.
•► Release the transmitter button.
•► Press transmitter button 6 of the garage door remote control and hold for two seconds, then release for two seconds, then press again and hold for two seconds.
•► Repeat this sequence on transmitter button 6 of the garage door remote control until indicator lamp 1 is green.
Repeat the process if indicator lamp 1 turns red.
•► Continue with the other programming steps (see above).
Problems when programming
If you are experiencing problems programming the integrated garage door opener on the rear-view mirror, take note of the following instructions:
- check the transmission frequency of garage door remote control 5 (usually found on the reverse side of the remote control).
The integrated garage door opener is compatible with devices that can be operated with units in a frequency range of 280 to 390 MHz.
- change the batteries in garage door remote control 5. This increases the probability that garage door remote control 5 will send a strong and precise signal to the integrated garage door opener on the rearview mirror.
- when programming, hold garage door remote control 5 at different distances and angles from the transmitter button that you are programming. Try different angles at a distance between 2 and 12 inches (5 to 30 cm) or the same angle at varying distances.
- if another remote control for the same garage door drive is available, repeat the same programming steps with this remote control. Before you perform the steps of the operation, make sure that there are new batteries in the garage door remote control.
- note that some remote controls only transmit for a limited amount of time (the indicator lamp on the remote control goes out). Press the remote control button again before it stops transmitting.
- align the antenna cable of the garage door opener unit. This can improve signal reception/transmission.
Opening/closing the garage door
Once programmed, the integrated garage door opener will assume the function of the garage door system's remote control. Please also read the operating instructions for the garage door system.
•► Turn the SmartKey to position 2 in the ignition lock.
•► Press transmitter button 2, 3 or 4 in the overhead control panel that you have programmed to operate the garage door.
Garage door system with a fixed code:
indicator lamp 1 lights up green.
Garage door system with a rolling code:
indicator lamp 1 flashes green.
The transmitter will transmit a signal for as long as the transmitter button is being pressed. After a maximum of ten seconds, transmission is terminated and indicator lamp 1 flashes yellow. Press the transmitter button again, if necessary.
Clearing the memory of the integrated garage door opener on the rear-view mirror
•► Turn the SmartKey to position 2 in the ignition lock.
•► Press transmitter buttons 2 and 4.
The indicator lamp lights up yellow.
•► Press and hold transmitter buttons 2 and 4 until the indicator lamp turns green.
Make sure that you clear the memory of the integrated garage door opener before selling the vehicle.
Compass
Calling up the compass
To obtain a correct display in rear-view mirror 1, the compass must be calibrated and the magnetic field zone must be set.
•► Press button 3 briefly.
The compass shows which direction the vehicle is currently traveling in: N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W or NW.
Setting the compass
•► Determine your position using the following zone maps.
North America zone map
South America zone map
•► Press and hold button 3 for approximately three seconds.
The currently selected zone appears in compass display 2.
•► To select the zone: press button 3 repeatedly until the desired zone is selected.
The zone has been selected when compass display 2 shows the heading.
This takes a few seconds.
Calibrating the compass
•► Make sure that there is sufficient space for you to drive in a circle without impeding the remaining traffic.
In order to calibrate the compass correctly, observe the following points:
- calibrate the compass in the open and not
in the vicinity of steel constructions or highvoltage
transmission lines.
- switch off electrical consumers, for
example, the climate control, windshield
wipers or rear window defroster.
- close all doors and the trunk lid/tailgate.
•► Switch the ignition on.
•► Press and hold button 3 for approximately six seconds until the C symbol appears in compass display 2.
•► Drive a full circle at approximately 3 mph (5 km/h) to 6 mph (10 km/h).
Once the calibration has been successfully completed, the current direction appears in compass display 2.
Floormat on the driver's side
WARNING
Whenever you are using a floormat, make sure
there is enough clearance and that the
floormat is securely fastened.
The floormat should always be securely fastened using the fastening equipment. Before driving off, check that the floormat is securely in place and adjust it if necessary. A loose floormat could slip and hinder proper functioning of the pedals.
Do not place several floormats on top of each other as this may impair pedal movement.
•► Slide the seat backwards.
•► To install: place the floormat in the footwell.
•► Press studs 1 onto retainers 2.
•► To remove: pull the floormat off retainers 2.
•► Remove the floormat.
