BEFORE PROGRAMMING

Caution: When programming a garage 
door opener or entry gate that may 
require you to press and re-press the 
hand-held transmitter (cycle), unplug 
the device during the cycling process 
to prevent possible motor failure.

It is recommended that for best results, fit 
a new battery to the hand-held transmitter 
of the garage door opener (or other 
device) before programming. If your 
garage door opener receiver (located in 
the garage) is equipped with an antenna, 
ensure that the antenna is hanging 
straight down.

TO ERASE ALL 
PROGRAMMING

For first time programming, ensure that 
the engine is switched off:

1. Turn the ignition switch to position I.

2. Press and hold the two outer buttons 

on the garage door opener in the 
overhead console. Keep the buttons 
pressed, the indicator light will 
illuminate. The indicator light is part of 
the middle button in the garage door 
opener in the overhead console.

3. Release the buttons when the lights 

begin to flash (this will take 
approximately 20 seconds).

All memories in the garage door opener 
have now been cleared.

Note: Do not perform this procedure 
when programming the additional garage 
door opener buttons.

PROGRAMMING THE VEHICLE

Ensuring that the engine is switched off:

1. Turn the ignition switch to position I.

2. Hold the end of the original garage 

door opener hand-held transmitter 
approximately 50 mm to 150 mm (2 to 
6 inches) away from the transceiver in 
the overhead console, keeping the 
indicator light in view.

3. Using both hands, simultaneously 

press and hold both the desired 
garage door opener button on the 
overhead console and the hand-held 
transmitter button. Keep both buttons 
pressed. The light will flash, slowly at 
first and then change to a fast flash. 
When the indicator light flashes 
rapidly, release both buttons. The 
rapid flashing light indicates 
successful programming.

4. If, after 60 seconds, the indicator light 

does not flash rapidly, release both 
the transceiver and the hand-held 
transmitter buttons and repeat the 
procedure starting with Step 2. 
However, position the hand-held 
transmitter at a different angle and/or 
distance.

5. Press and hold the programmed 

overhead console garage door opener 
button and observe the indicator light:

• If the indicator light is solid/

continuous, programming is 
complete. Your device should 
activate when the garage door opener 
button is pressed and held for one to 
two seconds and then released.

• If the indicator light blinks rapidly for 

two seconds and then turns a 
solid/continuous light, proceed with 
the following programming 
instructions for rolling code device 
equipment.

Note: To programme additional garage 
door opener buttons, begin at Step 2.

programming

Note: A second person may make the 
following steps quicker and easier as once 
the button has been pressed there are 30 
seconds only in which to complete Step 3.

1. At the garage door opener receiver 

(motor head unit) in the garage, locate 
the learn or smart button/switch. The 
name of the button/switch may vary 
between manufacturers.

2. Press and release the learn or smart 

button.

3. Return to the vehicle and firmly press 

and hold the programmed garage 
door opener button for two seconds 
and release.

4. Repeat the press/hold/release 

sequence three times to complete the 
learning/training process.

The garage door opener in the overhead 
console should now activate the rolling 
code device.

Reprogramming a single garage door 
opener button

To programme a device to a previously 
trained button:

1. Press and hold the desired 

pre-programmed garage door opener 
button for at least 20 seconds, but no 
longer than 30 seconds, until the 
indicator light begins to flash.

2. Without releasing the overhead 

console button, position the 
hand-held transmitter approximately 
50 mm to 150 mm (2 to 6 inches) away 
from the transceiver in the overhead 
console, keeping the indicator light in 
view.

3. Carry out Step 3 of programming the 

vehicle, see page 61.

Entry gate/Canadian programming

The technology of some entry gates 
requires you to press and re-press (cycle) 
the hand-held transmitter every two 
seconds during programming.

Continue to press and hold the desired 
overhead console button while you cycle 
your hand-held transmitter until the 
indicator light flashes rapidly.

Before Driving

SEAT BELTS

!

WARNING:

Seat belts are designed to bear upon 
the bony structure of the body, and 
should be worn low across the front of 
the pelvis or the pelvis, chest and 
shoulders, as applicable; wearing the 
lap section of the belt across the 
abdominal area must be avoided.

!

WARNING:

Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly 
as possible, consistent with comfort, to 
provide the protection for which they 
have been designed. A slack belt will 
greatly reduce the protection afforded 
to the wearer.

!

WARNING:

Care should be taken to avoid 
contamination of the webbing with 
polishes, oils and chemicals, and 
particularly battery acid. Cleaning may 
safely be carried out using mild soap 
and water.

!

WARNING:

The belt should be replaced if webbing 
becomes frayed, contaminated or 
damaged.

!

WARNING:

It is essential to replace the entire 
assembly after it has been worn in a 
severe impact even if damage to the 
assembly is not obvious.

!

WARNING:

Belts should not be worn with the 
straps twisted.

!

WARNING:

Do not carry hard, fragile, or sharp 
items between your person and the 
seat belt. In an impact the pressure 
from the seat belt on such items can 
cause them to break, which in turn may 
cause death or serious injuries.

!

WARNING:

Each belt assembly must only be used 
by one occupant; it is dangerous to put 
a belt around a child being carried on 
the occupant's lap.

!

WARNING:

The occupants of the front seats 
should not travel with the seat back at 
more than 30 degrees from upright. 
Doing so will reduce the protection 
afforded by the seat belt.

Seat belt safety

The use of front and rear seat belts is 
mandatory in most countries. Using seat 
belts saves lives. They should be worn by 
all occupants, whenever the vehicle is in 
use, for maximum protection.

Lap/shoulder inertia reel seat belts are 
provided for both front occupants and 
three rear seat positions.
