INTELLICODE ®Rolling Code Security System.

An electronic rolling code system that enhances the security of

the door opener by continuously changing the access code each time the remote control is used. The door opener

responds to each new code only once. An access code copied

from a working system and tried again will not control the door

opener. Lighted Wall Console*

Operates door opener from inside garage. (Refer to section 3)

and Car2U ®compatible.

Follow the Homelink ®or Car2U ®instructions in your car owner's manual.

Safe-T-Beam ®Non-Contact Reversing System**. Puts an invisible beam across the door opening. The door stops

and reverses to the full open position if anything passes

through the beam. Red or green LED indicator lights on the

power head provide a self diagnostic code if an operational problem exists. (Refer to Section 10.)

Safe-T-Reverse ®Contact Reversing System.

Automatically stops and reverses a closing door within 2

seconds of contact with an object. (Refer to Section 6.) Safe-T-Stop ®Timed Reversed System.

Automatically opens a closing door if it fails to close completely within 30 seconds.

Watch DogTM Monitoring System.

Monitors the Safe=T-Beam@ system to ensure proper function= ality and will automatically stop and reverse a closing door if a

problem is detected.

Automatic Lighting System.

One bulb lighting supplies up to 75 watts of light for safer evening exits and entries. Turns ON when door is activated and

automatically turns OFF 3 minutes later. Manual Emergency Release.

Manually releases door from door opener. Use during a power failure or other emergency to allow manual opening and closing

of door. (Refer to Section 6.)

PN# 3642036534, 02/26/2010 REV. 1 3

Check your ceiling where the power

head of your new unit will be mounted.

Plan how you will be mounting the power head. It is possible that ceiling joists may not be in the

position needed with respect to the garage door opener. It may be necessary to add an

additional bracket and fasteners (not included with your new door opener kit).

(Refer to Section 2.)

Check the wall directly above the garage

door. The door opener's header bracket must be securely fastened to this wall. Insure that the structure will provide a strong mounting

location. (Refer to Section 2.)

Check to see if the mounting location

for the Safe-T-Beam ®System is clear from obstruction and has a wood surface available

for attaching the mounting brackets. The brackets may be attached to concrete if necessary

but extra tools and special fasteners (not supplied) will be required. (Refer to Section 4 and 5.)

You need a properly grounded 110-120 Volt

power supply available. The outlet should be

no more than 3 feet from the power head once it is mounted. (Refer to Section 5.)

To avoid damage to your door and/or

opener, make sure you disable and/or remove any door locks, ropes, and/or cables (NOT door lift cables) prior to installing your

opener. (Refer to Section 1.)

insure that your door is properly balanced

and moving freely. (Refer to Section 2.)

is your sectional garage door made of

aluminum, light-weight steel, fiberglass

or glass panels? Additional support bracing must be added to these type doors. If this is the

case, please contact the door manufacturer or authorized dealer so that they can furnish you with a "bracing kit." (Refer to Section 2.)
