This system has a range of about 3 feet (1 m) up to 30 feet
(9 m). At times you may notice a decrease in range.
This is normal for any remote lock control system. If the
transmitter does not work or if
you have to stand closer to
your vehicle for the transmitter to work,
try this:

Check to determine if battery replacement or
resynchronization is necessary. See
the instructions
that follow.
Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. You may need to stand closer during rainy
or snowy weather.
Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal. Take a few steps to
the left or right,
hold the transmitter higher, and
try again.
If you’re still having trouble, see your Aurora retailer
or a qualified technician for service.
Operation
The driver’s door will unlock when UNLOCK is pressed.
If pressed again within
25 seconds, all doors will unlock.
Pressing the
UNLOCK button will also illuminate the
interior lamps. (See “Illuminated Entry’’
in the Index.) All
doors will lock when
LOCK is pressed. The
trunk will unlock when the opened trunk symbol
is
pressed, but only when the ignition is off. The trunk
symbol will also work when the ignition
is on, but only
while in PARK
(P) or NEUTRAL (N).
Instant Alarm
When the button with the horn symbol on the key
transmitter is pressed, the horn will sound and the
headlamps and taillamps will flash for
up to two
minutes. This can be turned
off by pressing the instant
alarm button again, unlocking the vehicle with a key or
by turning
the ignition on.
Resynchronization
If only the instant alarm button works, the transmitter
needs
to be resynchronized to the receiver. Do this by
pressing and holding both the LOCK and UNLOCK
buttons for about eight seconds; you must be within
range of the vehicle.
Once the transmitter has been resynchronized, the horn
will chirp and the exterior lamps will flash once. The
system should now operate properly.

Your vehicle’s engine should be turned off while
programming your transmitter. Follow these steps to
program up to three channels:
1.
2.
3.
4.
- -
If you have not previously programmed a universal
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.
Hold the end
of your hand-held transmitter against
the bottom surface of the universal transmitter
so
that you can still see the red light.
Decide which one of the three channels you want to
program. Using both hands, press the hand-held
transmitter button and the desired button on the
universal transmitter. Continue to hold both buttons
through Step
4.
Hold down both buttons until you see the red light
on the universal transmitter flash slowly then rapidly.
The rapid flashing, which could take up to
90 seconds, indicates that the universal transmitter
has been programmed. Release both buttons three
seconds after 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 batteries in
the hand-held transmitter are not dead. If you still
cannot program it, rotate your 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 Aurora retailer.
Be sure to keep your original hand-held transmitter in case
you need to erase and reprogram the universal transmitter.
Note to Canadian Owners: During programming, your
hand-held transmitter may stop transmitting after one or
two seconds. If you are programming from
one of these
transmitters, you should press and re-press the button on
the hand-held transmitter every two seconds without
ever releasing
the button on the universal transmitter.
Release both buttons three seconds after the red light on
the universal transmitter begins to flash rapidly.
Operating the Transmitter
Press and hold the appropriate button on the universal
transmitter. The red light comes on while the signal
is
being transmitted.
Note that the effective transmission range
of the
universal transmitter may differ from your hand-held
transmitter and also from one channel to another.

Training a Garage Door Opener Equipped
with “Rolling Codes”
If you programmed the universal transmitter, but the
garage door will not open, and
if your garage door
opener was manufactured after
1995, your garage door
may have a security feature that changes the “code”
of your garage door opener every time it is opened
or closed.
To determine if your garage door opener has this rolling
code feature, press the appropriate button on the
universal transmitter that was programmed. If the red
light flashes rapidly for one to two seconds, then turns
solid, your garage door opener has this feature.
To program a garage door opener with the rolling code
feature, do the following:
1.
2.
3. Program your hand-held
transmitter to the universal
transmitter by following the steps provided under
“Programming the Transmitter” earlier.
Remove the cover panel from
the garage door
opener receiver. It is located near the garage door
opener motor.
Locate the training button on the garage door opener
receiver. The exact location and color will vary
among brands.
4.
5.
6.
Press the training button on the garage door opener
receiver for one to two seconds.
Return to your vehicle and press the programmed
button on the universal transmitter until the red light
flashes rapidly (about two seconds).
Release the button, then press it again
to confirm it
was programmed to the garage door opener receiver.
You may now use either the universal transmitter or the
hand-held transmitter to open your garage door. If
you
still have difficulty in programming and require
assistance, please call your Aurora retailer.
Erasing Channels
To erase all three programmed channels, hold down the
two outside buttons until the red light begins to flash.
Individual channels cannot be erased, but can be
reprogrammed using the procedure for programming the
transmitter explained earlier.
