Integrated universal remote

control*

The concept

The integrated universal remote control can
replace as many as three hand-held transmit-
ters for various remote-controlled devices,
such as door openers and house alarm sys-
tems. The integrated universal remote control
registers and stores signals from the original
hand-held transmitters.
The signal of an original hand-held transmitter
can be programmed on one of the three mem-
ory buttons

1. After this, the programmed

memory button

1 will operate the system in

question. The LED

2 flashes to confirm trans-

mission of the signal.
Should you sell your vehicle one day, be sure to
delete the stored programs beforehand for your
safety, refer to page

To prevent possible damage or injury,
before programming or using the inte-

grated universal remote control, always inspect
the immediate area to make certain that no peo-
ple, animals or objects are within the pivoting or
travel range of the device being operated. Com-
ply also with the safety instructions supplied
with the original hand-held transmitter.

Checking compatibility

If this symbol appears on the package
or in the instructions supplied with the
original hand-held transmitter, you can

assume that the radio remote control device will
be compatible with the integrated universal
remote control.
