PROGRAM YOUR OPENER & REMOTE
Activate the opener only when door is in full view, free of
obstruction and properly adjusted. No one should enter or leave
garage while door is in motion. Do not allow children to operate
push button(s) or remote(s). Do not allow children to play near
the door.
Your garage door opener receiver and remote control transmitter are
set to a matching code. If you purchase additional remote controls, the
garage door opener must be programmed to accept the new remote
code.
Program the Receiver to Match Additional Remote Control Codes
1. Press and hold the remote control push button (1).
2. Press and release the right "Smart" button (2) on the opener panel.
The opener lights will flash once.
3. Release the remote push button.
Now the opener will operate when the remote control push button is
pressed.
If you release the remote control push button before the opener lights
flash, the opener will not accept the code.
To Erase all Remote Control Codes
• Press and hold the right "Smart" button on the opener panel until the
indicator light (3) turns off (about 6 seconds). All the codes the
opener has learned will be erased.
• To reprogram, repeat Steps 1 – 3 for each remote control in use.
OPERATION OF YOUR OPENER
Your opener can be activated by any of the following devices:
• The Lighted Door Control Button. Hold the button down until door
starts to move.
• The Outside Keylock or Keyless Entry System (if you have
installed either of these accessories).
• The Remote Control Transmitter. Hold the push button down until
the door starts to move.
• The left push button on the on the opener panel, when the
opener is not in a learn or limit setting mode (the indicator light must
not be on).
Opening the Door Manually:
Door should be fully closed if possible. Weak or broken springs
could allow an open door to fall rapidly. Property damage or
serious personal injury could result.
A. C-rail: The door can be opened manually by pulling the trolley
release handle down. To reconnect the trolley, rotate the lever. It
will reconnect on the next up or down operation.
B. T-rail: The door can be opened manually by pulling the trolley
release handle down and back (toward the opener). To reconnect
the trolley, pull the release handle straight down. It will reconnect
on the next up or down operation.
Do not use the manual release handle to pull the door open or
closed.
When the Opener is Activated by the Remote Control
or Lighted Door Control Button:
1. If open, the door will close. If closed, the door will open.
2. If closing, the door will reverse.
3. If opening, the door will stop (allowing space for entry and exit of
pets and for fresh air).
4. If the door has been stopped in a partially open position, it will close.
5. If an obstruction is encountered while closing, the door will reverse.
6. If an obstruction is encountered while opening, the door will stop.
7. The optional Protector System™ uses an invisible beam which,
when broken by an obstruction, causes a closing door to open and
prevents an open door from closing. It is STRONGLY
RECOMMENDED for homeowners with young children.
The opener light will turn on: 1) when opener is initially plugged in;
2) when the power is interrupted; 3) when the opener is activated.
The light turns off automatically after 2-1/2 minutes. Bulb size is
40 Watts maximum.
CARE OF YOUR OPENER
22
When properly installed, opener will provide high performance with a
minimum of maintenance. The opener does not require additional
lubrication.
Limit and Force Adjustments: These adjustments must be properly
set and checked when the opener is installed. Weather conditions may
cause some minor changes in the door operation, requiring some re-
adjustments, particularly during the first year of operation.
Refer to the limit and force adjustments on page 4. Follow the
instructions carefully and repeat the safety reverse test after any
adjustment.
Remote Control Transmitter: The portable remote control may be
secured to a car sun visor with the clip provided. Additional remotes
can be purchased at any time for use in all vehicles using garage.
Refer to Accessories. The receiver must be programmed to operate
with any new remote.
Remote Control Battery: The battery should produce power for at
least one year. When the light becomes dim or does not come on,
replace the battery. If transmission range lessens, check the battery
test light.
Do not dispose of the old battery with household waste. Take batteries
to a proper disposal center.
MAINTENANCE OF YOUR OPENER
• Repeat safety reverse test. Make any necessary adjustments.
• Manually operate door. If it is unbalanced or binding, call for
professional garage door service.
• Check to be sure door opens and closes fully. Adjust Limits and/or
Force if necessary.
Oil door rollers, bearings and hinges. The opener does not require
additional lubrication. Do not grease the door tracks.
HAVING A PROBLEM?
1. Opener doesn't operate from either door control or remote:
• Does the opener have electric power? Plug lamp into outlet. If it
doesn't light, check the fuse box or the circuit breaker. (Some outlets
are controlled by a wall switch.)
• Have you disengaged all door locks? Review installation instruction
warnings on page 1.
• Is there a build-up of ice or snow under door? The door may be
frozen to ground. Remove any obstruction.
• The garage door spring may be broken. Have it replaced.
2. Opener operates from remote but not from door control:
• Is door control button lit? If not, remove the bell wire from the opener
terminals. Short the red and white terminals by touching both
terminals at the same time with a piece of wire. If the opener runs,
check for a faulty wire connection at the door control, a short under
the staples, or a broken wire.
• Are wiring connections correct? Review Step 20.
3. Door operates from door control but not from remote:
• Check the battery test light. Replace battery if necessary.
• If you have two or more remotes and only one operates, review
receiver programming procedures in Step 22.
4. Remote has short range:
• Is battery installed? Check battery test light. If the light is dim,
change the battery.
• Change the location of the remote control on the car.
• A metal garage door, foil-backed insulation or metal siding will
reduce the transmission range.
• Use co-axial antenna adapter to move antenna. See Step 23.
