outdated garage door opener can lead to malfunction of the garage door, potentially causing serious injury or
death.

When programming the RF transceiver to a garage door opener or entry gate, make sure that the area is
clear of people and objects. Potential harm or damage may occur, as the gate or garage door activates during
programming.
