Toreduce the risk of severe injury or death:1.READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

2.Never let children operate or play with the door controls. Keep the remote control away from children.

3.Always keep the moving door in sight and away from people and objects until the door is completely closed. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING DOOR.

4.NEVER GO UNDER A STOPPED, PARTIALLY OPEN DOOR.

5.Test operator monthly. The door MUST reverse on contact with a 1-1/2" high object (or a 2" x 4" board laid flat) at the center of the doorway on the floor. After adjusting either the force or the limit of travel, retest the door Opener. Failure to adjust the Opener properly may cause severe injury or death.

6.When possible, use the emergency release only when the door is closed. Use caution when using this release with the door open. Weak or broken springs are capable of increasing the rate of door closure and increasing the risk of severe injury or death.

7.KEEP DOORS PROPERLY BALANCED. See your garage door Owner’s Manual. An improperly balanced door increases the risk of severe injury or death. Have a trained professional service technician make repairs to cables, spring assemblies, and other hardware.
