OWNER’S MANUAL

Some states prohibit the service or repair of garage door openers whch cannot be made to comply with the safety standards contained in UL 325 (either the1988 or 1992 revision). In order to comply with both the letter and the spirit of these laws, Chamberlain that this universal remote control not be used with any Chamberlain door opener manufactured prior to April 1, 1982, and that it not be used with state of New York. To find out if your Chamberlain-made garage door opener was manufactured prior to or after April 1, 1982, please call 1-800-528-9131 before installing this universal remote control.

RADIO CONTROLS consist of a receiver and remote control transmitter(s). The remote control sends a coded signal from outside the garage. Inside the garage, the plug-in receiver accepts the transmitted signal and starts the door opener.

IMPORTANT: Disable your existing receiver before installing this replacement unit. If this is not possible, locate receiver as far from original receiver as possible. When installing two or more receivers in a garage, position them at least 10 feet apart to prevent electronic interference.
