Retain your original garage door opener
(transmitter) for future programming proce-
dures (i.e., new vehicle purchase). It is also
suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle,
the programmed garage opener buttons be
erased for security purposes, see page 113.
Preparations for first-time programming
Before programming the garage opener for
the first time, you must delete any factory
codes.
Press and hold buttons 1 and 3 for about
20 seconds until the LED starts to flash.
This deletes the factory codes and initiates
the programming phase.
Programming the garage opener
The garage opener can record and store the
frequencies of three different remote con-
trols.
The battery in the remote control should be
fairly new for programming to work well.
1 Turn the ignition ON.
2 Hold your existing garage door opener
1–3 in. (3–7 cm) below the rearview
mirror. Sit where you can see the LED
(4) during programming.
3 Press the button on the remote control
and the desired button on the rear view
mirror at the same time.
4 The LED will now start to flash, slowly at
first and then rapidly. The rapidly flash-
ing LED indicates that programming is
complete and that you can release the
buttons.
The remote control may stop transmitting
during programming. If so, continue to hold
the button on the rearview mirror and
release and press the button on the remote
control every other second, "cycling" until
programming is completed.
WARNING
Make sure that people and objects are out
of the way of moving door or gate to
prevent potential harm or damage.
When programming the garage opener,
you may be operating a garage door or
gate operator.
Do not use the garage opener with any
garage door opener that lacks the safety
stop and reverse feature as required by
federal safety standards. (This includes
any garage door opener model manufac-
tured before April 1, 1982.). A garage
door opener which cannot detect an
object, signaling the door to stop and
reverse, does not meet current federal
safety standards. Using a garage door
opener without these features increases
risk of serious injury or death.
