The required distance between remote
control Aand the integrated garage door
opener depends on the garage door drive
system. Several attempts might be neces-
sary. You should test every position for at
least 25 seconds before trying another
position.
Synchronizing the rolling code
Pay attention to the "Important safety notes"
(
Ypage 530).
If the garage door system uses a rolling code,
you will also have to synchronize the garage
door system with the integrated garage door
opener in the rear-view mirror. To do this you
will need to use the programing button on the
control panel of the door drive. The program-
ing button may be positioned in different pla-
ces depending on the manufacturer. It is usu- ally located on the door drive unit on the
garage ceiling.
Familiarize yourself with the garage door
drive operating instructions, e.g. under "Pro-
graming of additional remote controls",
before carrying out the following steps.
Your vehicle must be within reach of the
garage door or gate opener drive. Make sure that neither your vehicle nor any persons/
objects are present within the sweep of the
door or gate.

Notes on programing the remote control
Canadian radio frequency laws require a
"break" (or interruption) of the transmission
signals after broadcasting for a few seconds.
Therefore, these signals may not last long
enough for the integrated garage door
opener. The signal is not recognized during
programing. Comparable with Canadian law,
some U.S. garage door openers also feature a
"break".
Proceed as follows:
Rif you live in Canada
Rif you have difficulties programing the
garage door opener (regardless of where
you live) when using the programing steps.

Problems when programing
If you experience problems programing the
integrated garage door opener on the rear-
view mirror, take note of the following instruc-
tions:
RCheck the transmitter frequency used by
garage door drive remote control Aand
whether it is supported. The transmitter
frequency can usually be found on the back
of the garage door drive remote control.
The integrated garage door opener is com-
patible with devices that have units which
operate in the frequency range of 280 to
433 MHz.
RReplace the batteries in garage door
remote control A. This increases the like-
lihood that garage door remote control A
will transmit a strong and precise signal to the integrated garage door opener.
RWhen programing, hold remote control A
at varying distances and angles from the
button which you are programing. Try vari-
ous angles at a distance between 2and
12 inches (5to 30 cm) or at the same angle
but at varying distances.
RIf another remote control is available for the
same garage door drive, repeat the same
programing steps with this remote control. Before performing these steps, make sure
that new batteries have been installed in
garage door drive remote control A.
RNote that some remote controls only trans-
mit for a limited amount of time (the indi-
cator lamp on the remote control goes out).
Press buttonBon remote control Aagain
before transmission ends.
RAlign the antenna cable of the garage door
opener unit. This can improve signal recep-
tion/transmission.
