Your vehicle's engine should be turned while off programming the transmitter. Follow these steps to program upto three channels: 1. If you have not previously programmed a universal channel, proceed to Step2. Otherwise, hold down the two outside buttons on the universal transmitter until the red light begins to flash rapidly (approximately 20 seconds). Thenrelease the buttons. This procedure initializes the memory and erases any previous settings for all three channels. 2. Hold the end ofthe hand-held transmitter against the bottom surface of the universal transmitter so that you can still see the red light. If you have trouble programming the universal transmitter, make sure that you have followed the directions exactly as described and that the battery in the hand-held transmitter is not dead. If you still cannot program it, rotate thehand-held transmitter end over end and try again. Theuniversal transmitter may not work with older garage door openers that donot meet current Federal Consumer Safety Standards. If you cannot program the transmitterafter repeated attempts,consult your Cadillac dealer. Be sure to keep the original hand-held transmitter in case you need to erase and reprogramthe universal transmitter. 3. Decide which one of the three channels you want to program. Using both hands, press the hand-held transmitter button and the desired button on the universal transmitter. Continue to hold both buttons through Step 4. 4. Hold down bothbuttons until you see the red light on the universal transmitter flash rapidly and then stop. The rapid flashing, which could take upto 90 seconds, indicates that the universal transmitter has been programmed. Release both buttons the once light starts to flash rapidly. Note to Canadian Owners: During programming, the hand-held transmitter maystop transmitting afterone or two seconds. If you are programmingfrom one of these transmitters, you should press and repressthe button on the hand-held transmitter every two seconds without ever releasing the button on the universal transmitter. Release both buttons when the red light the universal on transmitter begins to flash rapidly. 2-58
