Setting Contact Reverse Function - Genie Excelerator 3531835447 User Manual

NOTE
e To protect your new investment, your Excelerator ® is
equipped with a Timer and Cycle Counter which work
together to prevent any chance of heat damage to
electrical circuits caused by too many cycles in too short
a time. If your Opener suddenly stops responding to the
Wall Console- Do Not Unplug the Unit- simply wait
10 minutes for the Timer/Cycle Counter to reset itself
and try again.
Unplugging the unit will prevent the Timer/Cycle
Counter from resetting.
