Do not use the universal transmitter with any garage
door opener that does not have the “stop and reverse’’
safety feature. This includes any garage door opener
model manufactured before April
1, 1982.
Be sure that people and objects are clear of the garage
door you are programming.
Your vehicle’s engine should be turned
off while
programming the transmitter. Follow these steps
to
program up to three channels:
1.
c
2.
P
3.
c
If you have previously programmed a transmitter
channel, proceed
to Step 2. Otherwise, hold down
the two outside buttons
on the universal transmitter
until the red light begins to flash rapidly
(approximately
20 seconds). Then release the
buttons. This procedure initializes the memory and
erases any previous settings for all three channels.
Decide which one of
the three channels you want
to program.
Hold the end
of the hand-held transmitter against the
front surface
of the universal transmitter so that you
can still see the red light.
4. Using both hands, press the hand-held transmitter
button and the desired button
on the universal
transmitter. Continue
to press both buttons through
Step
5.
5. Hold down both buttons until you see the red light
on the universal transmitter flash slowly and
then
rapidly. The rapid flashing, which could take up to
90 seconds, indicates that the universal transmitter
has been programmed. Release both buttons
once the
light starts to flash rapidly.
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 the hand-held transmitter end over end
and try again. The universal transmitter may not work
with older garage door openers that do not meet current
Federal Consumer Safety Standards. If you cannot
program the transmitter after repeated attempts. consult
your Cadillac dealer.
Be sure to keep the original hand-held transmitter
in case you need to erase and reprogram the
universal transmitter.

connect the black
negative
(-) cable to
the good battery’s
negative
(-) terminal.
Don’t let the other end of
the negative (-) cable touch
anything until the next step. The other end
of the
negative
(-) cable doesn P go to the dead battery. It
goes to a heavy unpainted metal part on the engine
of the vehicle with the dead battery.
10. Attach the cable at least
11.
12.
18 inches (46 em) away
from the dead battery,
but not near engine
parts that move. The
electrical connection is
just as good there, but
the chance
of sparks
getting back to the
battery is much less.
Now start the vehicle with the good battery and run
the engine for awhile.
Try to start the vehicle with the dead battery.
If it won’t start after a few tries, it probably
needs service.
