with local codes for disposal instructions.
ALWAYS wear protective gloves and eye protection when
changing the battery or working around the battery compartment.

Battery Status LED

TEST THE BATTERY

1. Unplug the garage door opener. The battery status LED will
either glow solid orange indicating opener is operating on
battery power or will flash indicating low battery power.
NOTE: Make sure the garage door opener is unplugged.
2. Open and close the door using the remote control or door
control. The garage door opener may run slower if the battery
is not fully charged. The battery will take 24 hours to fully
charge.
3. Plug in the garage door opener. Verify the battery status LED
is flashing green, indicating the battery is charging.

CHARGE THE BATTERY

The battery charges when the garage door opener is plugged into a
110Vac electrical outlet that has power and requires 24 hours to fully
charge. A fully charged battery supplies 12Vdc to the garage door
opener for up to 24 hours of normal operation during an electrical
power outage. After the electrical power has been restored, the
battery will recharge within 24 hours. The battery will last
approximately 1 to 2 years with normal usage. Instructions for
replacement are provided with the battery. To obtain maximum
battery life and prevent damage, disconnect the battery when the
garage door opener is unplugged for an extended period of time, such
as a summer or winter home.
NOTE: When the garage door opener is in battery backup mode the
garage door opener lights, Timer-to-Close, and Remote Close
features are unavailable.

opener light off. Battery does not have to be fully charged to operate
