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 accessories,
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. Then with the ignition key in
position 2, this programmed memory button 1
can be used to operate the relevant accessory.
The LED
2 flashes to confirm transmission of
the signal.
Should you sell your vehicle one day, be sure to
delete the stored programs beforehand for your
safety, refer to page
97 .
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 travel
range of the device. Also, comply with the
safety precautions of the original hand-held
transmitter.
