This transmitter allows
you to consolidate the functions
of up to three individual hand-held transmitters. It will
operate garage doors and gates, or other devices
controlled
by radio frequency such as home and office
lighting systems.
The transmitter will learn and transmit the frequencies
of most current transmitters and is powered by your
vehicle’s battery and charging system.

Battery Warning Light
U
VOLTS
This light will come on
briefly when you start the
vehicle, as a check to show
you it is working, then it
should go out. If
it stays on,
or comes on while
you are
driving, you may have a
problem with the electrical
charging system.
A warning chime and the message CHECK CHARGE
SYSTEM may also come on. Have it checked right
away. Driving while this light is on could drain
your battery.
If you must drive a short distance with the light on, be
certain to turn off all your accessories, such as the radio
and climate control.
Brake System Warning Light
Your Aurora’s hydraulic brake system is divided into
two parts. If one part isn’t working, the other part can
still work and stop you. For good braking, though, you
need both parts working well.
This light should come on
when you turn
the ignition
key to
START. If it doesn’t
come
on then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn
BRAKE (a) you if there’s a problem. FLUID
If this warning light stays on after you start the engine,
there could be a brake problem. Have your brake system
inspected right away.
