cycle between OFF and ON eight times in rapid
succession (within 10 seconds) ending in ON. After
doors lock/unlock, press any control on all
transmitters (up to four). With each control press of
the transmitters, the door should cycle (lock/unlock)
to confirm programming. When completed, turn the
ignition to OFF. The door locks should cycle
(lock/unlock) one last time to confirm completion of
programming.
All transmittersmustbe programmed at the same
time.
