1996 CHEVROLET ASTRO garage door opener

Installing a Garage Door Opener
If you have a garage door opener, the front overhead
compartment can be used to conveniently store
the opener.
To install the garage door opener, first open the
compartment door by pressing the latch forward.
Peel the protective
backing from the hook
and loop patch. Center
the garage
door opener activation button over
the console door button and press the opener firmly
into place.
Press it firmly to the back
of your garage door opener, as
close to the center of the opener as possible. The
pegs inside
the
compartment door are used
to make sure the button on
the compartment door will
contact the control button
on the garage door opener.
Add one peg at
a time until the garage door opener
operates with
the compartment door closed when you
press the
button.

Now, with the compartment
door closed, press the
button again
to make sure
the garage
door opener
operates properly.
With the garage door opener positioned properly and the
right number
of pegs in place, you should only have to
press the button slightly to operate the opener. Adjust the
position of the garage door opener and add or remove
pegs, as needed, until the opener operates properly.
Temperature and Compass Display
The outside air temperature and the compass are
displayed at the front
of the overhead console. The
control switches are located
to the left of the display.
