Using the Wireless Keypad

Manual Operation (Power Outage)
In case of a power outage, pull the emergency release cord (usually red) to disconnect the door from the opener. This allows for manual opening and closing of the garage door. Re-engage the door by pushing the lever back into place once power is restored.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your garage door opener.
Monthly Checks
- Safety Reverse Test: Place a 2x4 board flat on the floor in the path of the door. Close the door. The door should reverse upon contact with the board. If it does not, adjust the force settings or consult a professional.
- Photo Eye Test: Wave your hand in front of the photo eyes while the door is closing. The door should stop and reverse. If it does not, check alignment or clean the lenses.
- Lubrication: Lubricate the garage door's moving parts (rollers, hinges, springs) with a silicone-based lubricant. Do NOT lubricate the opener's belt or rail.
Annual Checks
- Inspect all mounting hardware for tightness.
- Check the belt tension and adjust if necessary.
- Examine the power cord for any damage.
