Maintenance
EVERY MONTH
• Manually operate door. If it is unbalanced or binding,
call a trained door systems technician.
• Check to be sure door opens and closes fully. Adjust if
necessary, page 12.
• Test the safety reversal system. Adjust if necessary,
page 13.
EVERY YEAR
• Oil door rollers, bearings and hinges. The garage door
opener does not require additional lubrication. Do not
grease the door tracks.
• (If applicable) Test the battery backup and consider
replacing the battery to ensure the garage door opener
will operate during an electrical power outage.
Testing the Battery Backup:
1. Unplug the garage door opener from AC power. The
battery status LED will glow solid orange (opener is
operating on battery power) or will fl ash (low battery
power).
2. Open and close the door using the remote control or
door control.
3. In battery backup mode, the Automatic Garage Door
Lock will unlock when the garage door is opened, and
will remain disabled until power is restored.
4. Plug in the garage door opener. Verify the battery
status LED is fl ashing green (battery is charging).
EVERY TWO TO THREE YEARS
• Use a rag to wipe away the existing grease from the
garage door opener rail. Reapply a small layer of white
lithium grease to the top and underside of the rail
surface where the trolley slides.

My garage door opener beeps:
The garage door opener can beep for several reasons:
• Garage door opener has been activated through a device
or feature such as Timer-to-Close, garage door monitor
or LiftMaster Internet Gateway.
• Operating on battery power or the battery needs to be
replaced.
My neighbor's remote control opens my garage door:
Erase the memory from your garage door opener and
reprogram the remote control(s).
The garage door moves 6-8", stops or reverses:
• Manually open and close the garage door. Garage door
may be binding or there may be an obstruction. If the
door is binding, call a trained door systems technician.
• Possible travel module failure.
My remote control will not activate the garage door:
Verify the lock feature is not activated on the door control
or reprogram the remote control.
The wall-mounted door control will not function:
The wires for the door control are shorted or the door
control is faulty.
My garage door opener light(s) will not turn off when the
door is open:
The garage door opener is equipped with a feature that
turns the light on when the safety reversing sensors have
been obstructed or when the motion sensor on the door
control detects movement in the garage. This feature can
be disabled using the door control.
Garage door opener hums for 1-2 seconds with no
movement:
Manually open and close the garage door. Garage door
