(See Accessories)

When the opener is activated with the Safety
Reversing Sensor installed and correctly aligned:
1. If open, the door will close. If closed, it will open.
2. If closing, the door will reverse.
3. If opening, the door will stop (allowing space for

entry and exit of pets and for fresh air).

4. If the door has been stopped in a partially open

position, it will close.

5. If obstructed while closing, the door will reverse.
6. If obstructed while opening, the door will stop.
7. The garage door will reverse in the closing cycle,

and the opener lights will blink for 5 seconds, when
the invisible beam is broken. If fully open, the door
will not close when the beam is broken. The sensor
has no effect in the opening cycle.

If the sensor is not installed, or is not aligned
correctly, the door won't close from any remote
control transmitter. You can close the door with the
Door Control, the Outside Keylock, or Keyless Entry,
however, if you activate them until down travel is
complete. If you release them too soon, the door will
reverse.
The Opener Lights will turn on under the following
conditions: When the opener is initially plugged in;
when the power is interrupted; when the opener is
activated. It will turn off automatically after 4-1/2
minutes or provide constant light when the Light
feature on the Multi-Function Door Control is activated.
Bulb size is 75 watts maximum.
Lights will also turn on when someone walks through
the open garage door. With a

Multi-Function Door

Control, this feature may be turned off as follows: With
the opener lights off, press and hold the light button for
10 seconds, until the light goes on and off again. To
restore this feature, start with the opener lights on,
then press and hold the light button for 10 seconds.

Weak or broken springs could allow an open
door to fall (either rapidly or unexpectedly),
resulting in serious injury, death or property
damage. If possible, use the manual release rope
and handle

only when the door is fully closed.
