elapsed.
X Keep the transmitter buttons depressed.

the transmitter towards the left-hand side
of the rear-view mirror from a distance of
5 to 20 cm.

mately 20 seconds and did not flash rapidly
before this:

integrated and portable remote controls.
X Repeat the programming procedure. When
doing so, change the distance between the
garage door's remote control and the trans-
mitter buttons in the rear-view mirror.

rolling code, after programming you must
synchronise the remote control integrated
in the rear-view mirror with the garage door
system receiver.
