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 page 7.

3. Door operates from door control but not from remote:

• Replace battery if necessary.

• If you have two or more remotes and only one

operates, review Program Your Opener, Remote and

Check The Protector System™ (if you have installed this accessory). If the light is blinking, correct alignment.

If opener light does not blink and it is a new

installation, repeat Setting the Limit and Force steps 26 and 27.

Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.

11. Opener light does not turn on:

Replace light bulb (230V/40W maximum). Replace burned out bulbs with rough service light bulbs.

12. Opener strains:

CARE OF YOUR OPENER

When properly installed, opener will provide high performance with a minimum of maintenance. The opener does not require additional lubrication. Limit and Force Settings: These settings must be checked and properly set when 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 Setting the Limits and Force on page 10. Follow the instructions carefully and repeat the safety reverse test after any adjustment.

Remote Control: The 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. Any new remotes must be programmed into the opener. Remote Control Battery: The lithium batteries should produce power for up to 5 years. If transmission range lessens, replace battery .

To Change Battery: To replace batteries, use the visor clip or screwdriver blade to pry open the case. Insert batteries positive side up. To replace cover, snap shut along both sides. Do not dispose of the old battery with household waste. Take batteries to a proper disposal center.

6.Door reverses for no apparent reason and opener light blinks for 5 seconds after reversing:

Check The Protector System™ (if you have installed this accessory). If the light is blinking, correct alignment.

7.Opener noise is disturbing in living quarters of home:

If operational noise is a problem because of proximity of the opener to the living quarters, Vibration Isolator Kit 41A3263 can be installed. This kit was designed to reduce the "sounding board effect" and is easy to install.

Make sure remote push button is not stuck "on".

NOTE: If neither the black or the orange button is pressed, the door will reverse off the floor and the DOWN travel limit will be set automatically.

If the door does not stop in the desired UP (open)

position or reverses before the door stops at the DOWN (close) position, repeat Setting the Limits and Force, see adjustment steps 26 and 27.
