X
Point garage door remote control A
towards buttons ;to? on the rear-view
mirror at a distance of 5 to 20 cm.
i The required distance between remote

at least 25 seconds before trying another
position.
X Press and hold button Bon remot econtrol

gramming, you must synchronise the
garage door opener integrated in the rear-
view mirror with the receiver of the garage
door system.
Synchronising the rolling code
Your vehicle must be within reach of the
garage door or exterior gate drive. Make sure
that neither your vehicle nor any persons/

Problems when programming
If you have problems when programming the
integrated garage door opener, please note
the following:
R Check the transmitter frequency of garage
door drive remote control A.This can usu-

control A.This increases the likelihood
that remote control Awill send a strong
and precise signal to the integrated garage
door opener.
R When programming, hold remote control
A at varying distances and angles from the
button that you are programming. Try vari-
ous angles at a distance of between
5 and 30 cm or at the same angle but at
varying distances.
R If there is another remote control for the
same garage door drive, perform the pro-
gramming steps again using this remote
control. Before performing these steps,
make sure that new batteries have been
fitted in garage door drive remote control
A.
