WARNING

●

Do not leave glasses, lighters or spray cans in the storage spaces, as this may cause

the following when cabin temperature becomes high:
• Glasses may be deformed by heat or cracked if they come into contact with other

items, the lighter may catch fire or the spray can may release gas, causing a fire

hazard.

●

During programming, it is possible that garage doors, gates, or other
devices may operate. For this reason, make sure that people and objects
are clear of the garage door or other devices to prevent injury or other
potential harm.

●

It is recommended that a new battery be placed in the remote control
transmitter for more accurate programming.

●

Garage door opener motors manufactured after 1995 may be equipped
with rolling code protection. If this is the case, you may need a stepladder
or other sturdy, safe device to reach the “Learn” or “Smart” button on the
garage door opener motor.
