the integrated garage door opener.
X The first time before programming, clear
the integrated garage door opener memory
(Y page 268).
X Turn the SmartKey to position 2in the
ignition lock.
X Press and hold one of buttons 0003to0021 on
the integrated garage door opener.
After a short time, indicator lamp 0002lights
up yellow.
i Indicator lamp 0002lights up yellow as soon
as button 0003,0022or0021 is programmed for
the first time. If the selected button has
already been programmed, indicator
lamp 0002will only lightu p yellow after ten
seconds have elapsed.
X Release button 0003,0022or0021. Indicator
lamp 0002flashes yellow.
X Point garage door remote control 001F
towards buttons 0003to0021 on the rear-view
mirror at a distance of 2 to 8 inches (5 to
20 cm).
i The required distance between remote
control 001Fand the integrated garage door
opener depends on the garage door drive
system. Several attempts might be
necessary. You should test every position
for at least 25 seconds before trying
another position. X
Press and hold button 0020on remot econtrol
001F until indicator lamp 0002lights up green.
If indicator lamp 0002lights up green or
flashes, then programming has been
successful.
X Release button 0020on remote control 001Ffor
the garage door drive system.
X If indicator lamp 0002lights up red: repeat
the programming procedure for the
corresponding button on the rear-view
mirror. When doing so, vary the distance
between remote control 001Fand the rear-
view mirror.
i If the indicator lamp flashes green after
successful programming, the garage door
system is using a rolling code. After
programming, you must synchronize the
garage door opener integrated in the rear-
view mirror with the receiver of the garage
door system.
Synchronizing the rolling code
Observe the "Important safety notes"
(Y page 265).
Your vehicle must be within reach of the
garage door or exterior gate drive. Make sure
that neither your vehicle nor any persons/
objects are present within the sweep of the
door or gate.
X Turn the SmartKey to position 2in the
ignition lock.
X Press the program button of the door or
gate drive (see the door or gate drive
operating instructions, e.g. under
"programming of additional remote
controls").
i Usually, you now have 30seconds to
initiate the next step.
X Press previously programmed button 0003,
0022 or0021 of the integrated garage door
opener until the door closes.
The rolling code synchronization is then
complete. 266

Notes on programming the remote
control
Canadia nradio frequency laws require a
"break" (or interruption) of the transmission
signals after broadcasting for a few seconds.
Therefore, these signals may no tlast long
enough for the integrated garage door
opener. The signal is no trecognized during
programming. Comparable with Canadian
law, some U.S.g arage door openers also
feature a "break".
Proceed as follows:
R if you live in Canada
R if you have difficulties programming the
garage door opener (regardless of where
you live) when using the programming
steps
X Press and hold one of buttons 0003to0021 on
the integrated garage door opener.
Afte rashort time, indicator lamp 0002lights
up yellow.
X Release the button.
Indicator lamp 0002flashes yellow.
X Press button 0020of garage door remote
control 001Ffor two seconds, then release it
for two seconds.
X Press button 0020againf or two seconds.
X Repeat this sequence on button 0020of
remote control 001Funtil indicator lamp 0002
lights up green.
If indicator lamp 0002turns red, repeat the
process.
X Continue with the other programming
steps (see above).
Problems when programming
If you are experiencing problems
programming the integrated garage door
opener on the rear-view mirror, take note of
the following instructions:
R Check the transmitter frequency of garage
door drive remote control 001F.This can
usually be found on the back of the remote
control. The integrated garage door opener is
compatible with devices that have units
which operate in the frequency range of
280to 433MHz.
R Replace the batteries in garage door
remote control 001F.This increases the
likelihood that garage door remote control
001F will transmit a stronga nd precise signal
to the integrated garage door opene rinthe
rear-view mirror.
R When programming, hold remote control
001F at varying distances and angles from the
button that you are programming. Try
various angles at a distance between 2and
12 inches (5to 30 cm) or at the same angle
but at varying distances.
R If another remote control for the same
garage door drive is available, repeat the
same programming steps with this remote
control. Before performing these steps,
make sure that new batteries have been
installed in garage door drive remote
control 001F.
R Note that some remote controls only
transmit for a limited amount of time (the
indicator lamp on the remote control goes
out). Press button 0020on remote control
001F again before transmission ends.
R Align the antenna cable of the garage door
opener unit. This can improve signal
reception/transmission.
Opening/closing the garage door After it has been programmed, the integrated
garage door opener performs the function of
the garage door system remote control.
Please also read the operating instructions
for the garage door system.
