Programming the LEAR Car2U ™ Transmitter
Depending on your garage door opener manufacturer, LEAR Car2U ™ provides two easy ways
to program your garage door opener.
1. Rolling Code Garage Door Openers: If your garage door opener is a rolling code device
and do not have a row of dip switches use the “Programming Rolling Code Garage Door
Opener” procedure on page 4.
2. Fixed Code Garage Door Opener: If your garage door opener is a fixed code device and
has a row of dip switches use the “Programming Fixed Code Garage Door Opener”
procedure on page 6.
CAUTION
x Do not use the LEAR Car2U ™ Transmitter with any garage door opener that does not
have a “stop and reverse” feature. This includes any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982.
x Read the instructions completely before attempting to program the LEAR Car2U ™
transmitter. Because of the steps involved, it may be helpful to have another person
assist you in programming the transmitter.
x Be sure to keep the original remote control transmitter for use in other vehicles as well as
for future LEAR Car2U ™ programming. You only need it for fixed code device
programming. It is also recommended that upon the sale or lease termination of the
vehicle, the programmed LEAR Car2U ™ buttons should be erased for security reasons.
Refer to “Erasing LEAR Car2U ™ Buttons” or for assistance, contact LEAR Car2U ™
at 1-866-57Car2U.
x Make sure that people and objects are clear of the garage door opener or security device
you are programming. When programming a garage door, it is advised to park outside
the garage.
