Using Your Garage Door Opener
Your opener and hand-held remote control have been
factory-set to a matching code to operate with the
large push button. Your opener will operate with as
many as four "SRT" (Smart Receiver/Transmitter)
hand-held remote controls and one Multi-function
Keyless Entry. However, you can use either of the
two small buttons, if you prefer. And, the 3-function
remote control can also activate additional garage
door openers and/or light controls. If you purchase a
new remote, or if you wish to deactivate any remote,
follow the instructions in the Programming section.
Activate your opener with any of the following:
The hand-held Remote Control: Holdthe large
push button down until the door starts to move.
The wall-mounted Door Control: Hold the push
button down until the door starts to move.
The Keyless Entry (See Accessories): If supplied
with your garage door opener, it must be
programmed before use. See Programming,
