OPERATION OF YOUR OPENER

Your opener can be activated by any of the following
devices:
• The GREEN start button
Hold the button down until door starts to move.
• The wall control, outside keyswitch or keyless
entry system (if you have installed any of these
accessories).
• The transmitter or wireless wall
control (84330AML)
Hold the push button down until the door starts to move.
When the opener is activated by transmitter, green start
button or wall control:
• If open, the door will close. If closed, the door will open.
• If closing, the door will stop.
• If opening, the door will stop (allowing space for entry and
exit of pets and for fresh air).
• If the door has been stopped in a partially open or closed
position, it will reverse direction.
• If an obstruction is encountered while closing, the door
will reverse.
• If an obstruction is encountered while opening, the door
will reverse and stop.
• The optional Protector System™ (IR Beams) uses an
invisible beam which, when broken by an obstruction,
causes a closing door to open and prevents an open door
from closing. It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED for
homeowners with young children.
Allow a 15 minute cooling period after 4 minutes of
continuous operation of the opener.

Door should be fully closed if possible. Weak
or broken springs could allow an open door to
fall rapidly. Property damage or serious personal
injury could result.
The door can be opened manually by pulling the release cord
down firmly.
To re-engage door, pull the release cord down firmly (refer
section 11).
The opener light will turn on:
• when opener is initially plugged in;
• when the power is briefly interrupted;
• when the opener is activated.

SPECIAL NOTE: Chamberlain strongly recommends that the Protector System
garage door openers.
