If the garage door system uses a rolling code,
you will also have to synchronise the garage
door system with the integrated garage door
opener in the rear-view mirror. To do this you
will need to use the programming button on
the door drive control panel. Depending on
the manufacturer, the location of the pro-
gramming button may vary. It is usually loca-
ted on the door drive unit on the garage ceil-
ing.
Familiarise yourself with the garage door
drive operating instructions, e.g. under "Pro-
gramming of additional remote controls",

will transmit a strong and precise signal to
the integrated garage door opener in the
rear-view mirror.
When programming, hold remote control
R
A at varying distances and angles from the
button which you are programming. Try var-
ious angles at a distance between 5and
30 cm or at the same angle but at varying
distances.
