The
required distance between remotecon-
trol 0083and theintegr atedgarage door
opener depends onthe garage doordrive
system. Severalattemptsmight beneces-
sary. Youshould testevery position forat
least 25seconds beforetryinganother posi-
tion.
Synchronizing therolling code
Pay atten tiontothe "Importan tsafety notes"
(Y page 263).
If the garage doorsystem usesarolling code,
you willalso have tosynchron izethe garage
door system withtheintegr atedgarage door
opener inthe rear-view mirror.Todo this you
will need touse theprogramming buttonon
the door drive controlpanel. Theprogramming
button maybelocated indifferent places
depending onthe manufact urer.Itis usuall y
located onthe door drive unitonthe garage
ceiling.
Familiarize yourselfwiththegarage doordrive
operating instructions ,e.g. under "Program-
ming additional remotecontrols", before carry-
ing out thefollowing steps.
Your vehicle mustbewithin reachofthe
garage doororgate opener drive.Makesure
that neither yourvehicle norany persons/
object sare present withinthesweep ofthe
door orgate.
X Turn theSmart Keytoposition 0048inthe igni-
tion lock (Ypage 126).
X Get outofthe vehicle.
X Press theprogramming buttononthe door
drive unit.
Usually ,you now have 30seconds toinitiate
the next step.
X Get into thevehicle.
X Press previously programed button0044,0087
or 0085 onthe integr atedgarage dooropener
repeatedly untilthedoor closes.
The rolling codesynchron izationisthen
complete.
Notes onprogr ammingthe remot econ-
tr ol
Canadian radiofrequency lawsrequire a
"break" (orinter ruption) ofthe trans mission
signals afterbroadcasting forafew seconds.
Therefore, thesesignals maynotlast long
enough forthe integr atedgarage dooropener.
The signal isnot recogn izedduring program-
ming. Comparable withCanadian law,some U.S.
garage dooropeners alsofeature a
"break".
Proceed asfollows:
R ifyou liveinCanada.
R ifyou have difficulties programming the
garage dooropener (regardless ofwhere
you live) when following theprogramming
steps.
X Press andhold oneofbutton s0044 to0085 on
the integr atedgarage dooropener.
Aft erashort time,indicator lamp0043lights

X Release thebutton .
Indicat orlamp 0043flashes yellow.
X Press button 0084ofgarage doorremote con-
trol 0083for two seconds, thenrelease itfor
two seconds.
X Press button 0084again fortwo seconds.
X Repeat thissequence onbutton 0084of
remote control0083 until indicator lamp0043
lights upgreen.
When indicator lamp0043lights upgreen:
programming isfinished.
When indicator lamp0043flashes green:pro-
gramming wassuccessful. Thenext step is
to synchron izethe rolling code.
X Release button0084ofremote control0083 of
the garage doordrive.
When indicator lamp0043lights upred:
repeat theprogramming processforthe cor-
responding buttononthe rear-view mirror.
When doingso,vary thedistance between

Problems whenprogramming
If you areexperienc ingproblems programming
the integr atedgarage dooropener onthe rear-
view mirror, takenoteof the following instruc-
tions:
R Check thetrans mitterfrequency usedby
garage doordrive remote control0083 and
whether itis supported. Thetrans mitterfre-
quency canusuall ybe found onthe back of
remote control0083 for the garage doordrive. 264

The
integr atedgarage dooropener iscom-
patible withdevices thathave units which
operate inthe frequency rangeof280 to
433 MHz.
R Replace thebatteries ingarage doorremote
cont rol0083. This increases thelikelihood that
garage doorremote control0083 will trans mit
a stron gand precise signaltothe integr ated
garage dooropener.
R When programming, holdremote control0083
at varying distances andangles frombut-
ton s0044 to0085 which youareprogramming.
Try various anglesatadistance between
2and 8inches (5to20cm) oratthe same
angle butatvarying distances .
R Ifafurther remote control0083 isavailabl efor
the same garage doordrive, repeat the
same programming stepswiththisremote
