WARNING
Children operating or playing with a garage door opener can injure themselves or others. The garage door could close and cause serious injury or death.
Install the Door Control (or any additional push buttons) out of the reach of children and away from all moving parts of the door and door hardware, but where the garage door is visible. Do not allow children to operate the push button(s) or the remote control transmitter(s).
A moving garage door could injure someone under it. Activate the opener only when the door is properly adjusted, you can see it clearly, and there are no obstructions to door travel.
Do NOT connect the power and operate the opener at this time. The trolley will travel to the full open position but will not return to the close position until the sensor beam is connected and properly aligned.
See Safety Reversing Sensor Instructions beginning on page 17.
