during AUTOMATIC MODE.

that does not reset the red light, please call our Customer Care Center for additional help.

D. Check SmartDoor ™ Location Before Installation
DO NOT REMOVE SENSITIVITY STICKER BEFORE INSTALLING THE SMARTDOOR ™ .
Prior to installation, it is recommended to check that the SmartDoor ™ will operate properly in the
intended location or application to guard against possible severe radio-frequency interference.
Household appliances and common electronic products should be located at least two feet (60 cm)
away from the SmartDoor ™ ’s location. Radio-frequency interference detected from other household
appliances or common electronic products will negatively affect the ability of the SmartDoor ™ to
receive a SmartKey ™ signal. Typical appliances and products to consider are laptop computers,
wireless telephones, microwaves, televisions, garage door openers, hand-held electronic devices
(such as cell phones, game stations and remote controls).
The sticker placed over the sensitivity knob should not be removed until after installation, as the
factory default sensitivity setting is positioned at the optimal level for most installations.
It is recommended to install SmartDoor
™ in a location where direct wind is not a factor. Operating
Temperature Range: -5˚ F to 180˚ F (-20.5˚ C to 82˚ C). Operating Humidity Range: 0 to 99.9%.
• To check if SmartDoor
™ ’s radio-frequency technology will operate properly in desired location
and application, place SmartDoor ™ directly in front of and against the door or application in the
upright position. After performing steps A-C, now set the SmartDoor ™ in AUTOMATIC mode and
hold the SmartKey ™ directly in front of the SmartDoor ™ . The SmartDoor ™ fl ap should unlock in
about three seconds. Remember, the SmartKey ™ included in the kit is already programmed to
the SmartDoor ™ .
NOTE: If there are existing SmartKeys ™ in the household, remove all (RFA-67)
batteries while performing step D except the SmartKey ™ included with the SmartDoor ™ .
If the SmartDoor ™ does not unlock, move the SmartDoor ™ to another location and follow steps A-D
once more. If the SmartDoor ™ ’s location test above was unsuccessful, please call our Customer
Care Center for additional help.
When steps A-D are completed and all are successful, your SmartDoor
™ is ready for installation.
