Integrated universal remote
control*
The concept
The integrated universal remote control can
replace as many as three hand-held trans-
mitters for various remote-controlled
accessories, such as door openers and
house alarm systems. The integrated uni-
versal remote control registers and stores
signals from the original hand-held trans-
mitters.
The signal of an original hand-held trans-
mitter can be programmed on one of the
three memory keys1. Following that, each
of the devices can be actuated with the
appropriately-programmed memory key1.
The indicator lamp 2 flashes to confirm
transmission of the signal.
Should you sell your vehicle one day, be
sure to delete the stored programs before-
hand for your safety, refer to page113.
To prevent possible damage or injury,
before programming or using the inte-
grated universal remote control, always
inspect the immediate area to make certain
that no people, animals or objects are
within the swiveling and movement range
of the device. Also, comply with the safety
precautions of the original hand-held trans-
mitter.<
Checking compatibility
If you see this symbol on the pack-
aging or in the manual supplied with
the original hand-held transmitter, it
is safe to assume that it is compatible with
the integrated universal remote control.
If you have additional questions,

2Indicator lamp
Fixed-code hand-held transmitter
1.Switch on the ignition
2.When using for the first time: press both
outer keys1 for approx. 20 seconds,
maintaining pressure until the indicator
lamp2 starts to flash. The three mem-
ory keys1 are cleared
3.Hold the original hand-held transmitter
at a distance of approx. 2 in/5 cm to
8 in/20 cm from the memory keys1
The required distance between
the hand-held transmitter and
memory keys1 depends on the relevant
system of the original hand-held trans-
mitter used.<
4.Simultaneously press the transmit key
on the original hand-held transmitter
and the desired memory key1 of the
integrated universal remote control.
Initially, the indicator lamp2 flashes
slowly. Release both keys as soon as
the indicator 2 lamp flashes rapidly. If
the indicator lamp2 does not flash rap-
idly after approx. 15 seconds, change
the distance
5.To program other original hand-held
transmitters, repeat steps 3 and 4.
