STEP 10 Install the door control

To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from electrocution:

Be sure power is NOT connected BEFORE installing door control.

Connect ONLY to 24 VOLT low voltage wires.

To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a closing garage door:

Install door control within sight of garage door, out of reach of children at a minimum height of 5

feet (1.5 m), and away from ALL moving parts of door.

NEVER permit children to operate or play with door control push buttons or remote control

transmitters.

Activate door ONLY when it can be seen clearly, is properly adjusted, and there are no

obstructions to door travel.

ALWAYS keep garage door in sight until completely closed. NEVER permit anyone to cross path

of closing garage door.

Install the door control within sight of the door at a minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m) where small children
cannot reach, and away from the moving parts of the door. For gang box installations it is not necessary
to drill holes or install the drywall anchors. Use the existing holes in the gang box.

terminals on back of door control by color: white wire to WHT (1) and white/red wire to the RED
(2). If your garage is pre-wired for the door control, choose any two wires to connect, note
which wires are used so the correct wires are connected to the garage door opener in a later
step.
