(SAFETY REVERSING SENSORS)
When properly connected and aligned, the safetyreversing sensors will detectan obstruction in the
path of the infrared beam. Ifan obstruction breaks the infrared beam while the door is closing, the door
will stop and reverse to full open position, and the opener lights will flash 10 times. If the door is fully
open,and the safetyreversing sensors are notinstalled,or are misaligned,the door will not close from
a remote control. However, you can close the door if you hold the button on the door control or keyless
entry until the door is fully closed.The safety reversing sensors do noteffect the opening cycle.
ENERGY CONSERVATION
For energyefficiency the garage door opener will enter sleep mode when the door is fully closed. The
sleep mode shuts the garage door opener down until activated.The sleep mode issequenced with the
garage door opener light bulb; as the lightbulb turns off the sensor LEDs will turn off and whenever the
garage door opener lightsturn on the sensor LEDs will light. The garage door opener will notgo into
the sleep mode until the garage door opener has completed 5 cycles upon power up.
LIGHTS
The garage door opener lightbulbswill turn on when the opener is initiallyplugged in; power is
restored after interruption, or when the garage door opener isactivated. The lights will turn off
automatically after 4-1/2 minutes. An incandescent A19 lightbulb (100 watt maximum) or for maximum
energy efficiencya 26W (100W equivalent) compactfluorescentlight(CFL) bulb may be used.NOTE:
Do not use halogen, short neck,or specialty light bulbs as these may overheat the end panel or light
socket. Do not use LED bulbs as they may reduce the range or performance of your remote controls.
