Controls in detail Useful features Garage door opener* Warning! The integrated remote control is capable of operating up to three separately controlled devices. It provides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held remote controls used to operate devices such as garage door openers, gate openers, or other devices compatible with HomeLink® or some other systems. Before the integrated remote control can be used, it must be programmed to the garage door opener, gate operator or other device you wish to operate. See the following instructions for programming information. Interior rear view mirror with integrated remote control G 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 the vehicle outside the garage. 1 Indicator lamp 2 3 4 Signal transmitter button Needed for programming (not part of vehicle equipment): 5 Hand-held remote control of garage door opener, gate operator or other device Hand-held remote control button 6 303
