How to Use Your Opener

  • For maximum efficiency of your operator, your garage door must be in good operating condition.
  • An annual service of your garage door-by-door professional is recommended.

To Operate the opener:

  • Press the programmed transmitter button until your door begins to move (usually 2 seconds). Make sure you can see the door when you use the transmitter (Fig 7.1.1).
  • If you are in a vehicle you should aim the transmitter through your windscreen as shown.
  • Check that the door is fully open or closed before you drive in or away.
  • If you press the transmitter whilst the door is moving the door will stop. The next press of the transmitter will move the door in the opposite direction.

Replacing the Battery: 3V Lithium Battery CR2032.

  • To test whether the battery is working, press and hold a transmitter button. Check the Light Status table to determine if the battery needs replacing
    Light Status| Battery Status
    ---|---
    Solid| OK
    Flashing| Requires replacement
    No light| Requires replacement
  • Remove the screw from the back of the cover.
  • Use a screwdriver to separate the transmitter casing to expose the circuit board.
  • Use a non-metallic object (e.g. pen) to remove the battery. (Fig. 7.1.2).

CAUTION: Activate the operator only when the door is in full view, free of obstructions, and with the operator properly adjusted. No one should enter or leave the garage while the door is in motion. Do not allow children to play near the door.

WARNING!
This operator has a grounding type plug and there are no user serviceable parts inside this operator.

WARNING! Chemical Burn Hazard. Keep batteries away from children.

Battery Disposal
When batteries reach the end of their usual life by the Australian Battery Recycling Initiative please follow the next simple steps for protecting the environment.

  • WARNING! The Battery shall be disposed of properly, including keeping them away from children. Even used batteries may cause injury.
  • DO NOT throw the batteries in municipal waste. This symbol of the crossed-out wheeled bin indicates that the battery should not be placed in the municipal waste. Check your local regulations for appropriate disposal of the batteries.

Recycling all batteries will have other environmental and social benefits:

  • Some batteries are less toxic but hazardous for other reasons. Lithium batteries can explode or catch fire in landfills, while button cells are dangerous if swallowed by children. Recycling offers a safe and environmentally responsible solution for end-of-life batteries.
  • Battery recycling recovers non-renewable materials such as lead, cadmium, Stella, zinc, manganese, cobalt, silver, plastics, and rare earth elements.
  • Removal of batteries and other hazardous household products from household waste facilitates the recovery of organic materials through alternative waste technologies such as composting. Batteries and heavy metals are known contaminants in compost.
  • The community supports recycling because it reduces waste to landfill and achieves environmental benefits.

WARNING!
Before disposal, recycling, or collection, all battery terminals must be securely insulated with a nonconductive material to prevent any two batteries from short-circuiting and generating heat during storage or transport. Battery terminals may be insulated with electrical tape; or batteries may be individually packaged in a nonconductive material (e.g., plastic bag or original packaging).
