Read the instructions completely before attempting
to program the transmitter. Because of the
steps involved, it may be helpful to have another
person available to assist you in programming
the transmitter.
Be sure to keep the original remote control
transmitter for use in other vehicles, as well as,
for future programming. You only need the

is a xed code or rolling code device, open your
garage door opener’s remote control battery cover.
Your garage door opener is a xed code device
if there is a panel of switches. If not, your
garage door opener is a rolling code device.
