Controls in detail Useful features Step 2: If you have previously programmed an signal transmitter button and wish to retain its programming, proceed to step 3. If you are programming the integrated remote control for the first time, press and hold the two outer signal transmitter buttons 2 and 4 and release them only when the indicator lamp 1 begins to flash after approximately 20 seconds (do not hold the button for longer than 30 seconds). This procedure erases any previous settings for all three channels and initializes the memory. If you later wish to program a second and/or third hand-held transmitter to the remaining two signal transmitter buttons, do not repeat this step and begin directly with step 3. Step 3: Hold the end of the hand-held remote control 5 of the device you wish to train approximately 2 to 5 in (5 to12 cm) away from the signal transmitter button (2, 3 or 4) to be programmed, while keeping the indicator lamp 1 in view. Step 4: Using both hands, simultaneously press the hand-held remote control button 6 and the desired signal transmitter button (2, 3 or 4). Do not release the buttons until step 5 is completed. The indicator lamp 1 will flash, first slowly and then rapidly. When programming a garage door opener, it is advised to park outside the garage. Do not run the engine while programming the integrated remote control. Inhalation of exhaust gas is hazardous to your health. All exhaust gas contains carbon monoxide, and inhaling it can cause unconsciousness and possible death. Programming the integrated remote control Step 1: Switch on the ignition ( page 36). 282
