INSTALLATION STEP 8

Install the Standby Power (Optional)

• Make sure motor unit is unplugged.
• Using a Phillips head screwdriver, remove the battery
cover on the motor unit.
• Partially insert battery into motor unit with terminals
facing out.
• Connect red (+) and black (-) wires from motor unit to
corresponding terminals on battery.
• Replace battery cover.
INSTALLATION STEP 9

Install the Lights

• Press the release tabs on both sides of lens. Gently
rotate lens back and downward until the lens hinge is in
the fully open position. Do not remove the lens.
• Install a 100 watt equivalent maximum light bulb in each
socket. Use ONLY A19 incandescent or mini-twist
compact fluorescent light bulbs. The lights will turn ON
and remain lit for approximately 4-1/2 minutes when
power is connected. Then the lights will turn OFF.
• Reverse the procedure to close the lens.
NOTE: The use of short neck or speciality light bulbs may
overheat the endpanel or light socket.
INSTALLATION STEP 10
Attach the Emergency Release Rope
and Handle
• Thread one end of the rope through the hole in the top
of the red handle so "NOTICE" reads right side up as
shown. Secure with an overhand knot at least
1" (2.5 cm) from the end of the rope to prevent slipping.
• Thread the other end of the rope through the hole in the
release arm of the outer trolley.
• Adjust rope length so the handle is 6 feet (1.83 m)
above the floor. Ensure that the rope and handle clear
the tops of all vehicles to avoid entanglement. Secure
with an overhand knot.
NOTE: If it is necessary to cut the rope, heat seal the cut
end with a match or lighter to prevent unraveling.
To prevent possible OVERHEATING of the endpanel or light
socket:
• Use ONLY A19 incandescent or mini-twist compact
fluorescent light bulbs.
• DO NOT use incandescent bulbs larger than 100W.
• DO NOT use compact fluorescent light bulbs larger than
26W (100W equivalent).
• DO NOT use halogen bulbs.
• DO NOT use short neck or specialty light bulbs.

garage door:
• If possible, use emergency release handle to disengage

springs or unbalanced door could result in an open door
falling rapidly and/or unexpectedly.
• NEVER use emergency release handle unless garage
doorway is clear of persons and obstructions.
• NEVER use handle to pull door open or closed. If rope knot
becomes untied, you could fall.
