OPERATION OF YOUR OPENER

Your opener can be activated by any of the following
devices:

• Opener Control Panel: UP & DOWN buttons, and

O.S.C. control button.

• Transmitter: hold the button down until the door

starts to move.

• Wireless Entry Keypad: This is an accessory that

opens the door using a four digit keycode.

When the opener is activated:

• If open, the door will close. If closed, the door will

open.

• If closing, the door will stop.
• If opening, the door will stop (allowing space for

entry and exit of pets and for ventilation).

• If the door has been stopped in a partially open or

closed position, it will reverse direction.

Obstruction behaviour:

• If an obstruction is encountered while closing, the

door will reverse to the fully open position.

• If an obstruction is encountered while opening, the

door will stop and briefly reverse.

• The Protector System

TM

(IR Beams) use an

invisible beam which, when broken by an
obstruction, causes a closing door to open and
prevents an open door from closing. It is
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED for homeowners
with young children or pets.

release cord down firmly.
To re-engage the door, pull the release cord down
firmly.

The opener lights will turn on under the following
conditions:
when the opener is initially plugged in; when power
is restored after interruption or when the opener is
activated.The opener light will turn on for 3
minutes when the opener is activated.

• Repeat the safety reverse test (see Section 15).

additional lubrication.
