held transmitter and repeat the step. Sev~
eral more attempts at different distances
may be necessary. Wait at least 15 seconds

For systems with an alternating-code radio sys~
tem, the universal remote control and the sys~
tem also have to be synchronized.
Please read the operating manual to find out how to synchronize the system.
Synchronizing is easier with the aid of a second
