Car2U® home automation system
WARNING: Make sure that the garage door and security device are free from obstruction when you are programming. Do not program the system with the vehicle in the garage.
WARNING: Do not use the system with any garage door opener that does not have the safety stop and reverse feature as required by U.S. Federal Safety Standards (this includes any garage door opener manufactured before April 1, 1982).
Note: Before you begin the programming process, park your vehicle in front of the garage door opener motor or other device you want to program.
Note: Make sure you keep the original remote control transmitter for use in other vehicles as well as for future system programming.
Note: We recommend that upon the sale or lease termination of your vehicle, you erase the programmed function buttons for security reasons.
See Erasing the Function Button Codes later in this section.
Note: You can program a maximum of three devices. To change or replace any of the three devices after it has been initially programmed, you must first erase the current settings. See Erasing the Function Button Codes later in this section.
Note: Programming the system to a community gate will require a unique set of instructions depending on the gate system model. Contact the help line at 1-866-572-2728 for further information.
Note: If you accidently enter the program mode by pressing and releasing the outer two buttons or all three buttons simultaneously, do not press any button until the module times out after a few seconds and resets to normal mode. When the module has timed out, all three LED lamps will flash rapidly for a few seconds then turn off. Any settings should remain as previously set.
The universal garage door opener replaces the common hand-held garage door opener with a three-button transmitter that is integrated into the driver’s sun visor.
The system includes two primary features, a garage door opener and a platform for remote activation of devices with the home. As well as being programmed for garage doors, the system transmitter can be programmed to operate security devices and home lighting systems.
Additional system information can be found on-line at www.learcar2U.com or by calling the toll-free help line 1-866-572-2728.
Rolling Code Programming
Note: If you do not follow the time-sensitive instructions, the device will time out and you will have to repeat the complete procedure.
Note: It may be helpful to have another person assist you in programming the transmitter.
1. Switch the ignition on.
2. Press and hold the outer two buttons for 1–2 seconds, then release.
Note: You may need a ladder to reach the unit and you may need to remove the cover or lamp lens.
Note: If you cannot locate the learn button, see the Owner’s Manual for your garage door opener or call the toll-free help line at 1-866-572-2728.
3. Press the learn button on the garage door opener motor.
Note: You will have 10–30 seconds to complete the following steps.
4. Return to your car.
5. Press and hold the function button you would like to use to control the garage
door. You may need to hold the button from 5–20 seconds, during which time the selected
button LED lamp will flash slowly.
6. When the garage door moves, release the button within one second.
The LED lamp will flash rapidly until programming is complete.
7. Press and release the button again. The garage door should move, confirming that
programming is successful. If your garage door does not operate, repeat the previous
steps.
The LED lamp above the selected button will illuminate to confirm that the system is responding to the button command.
To program another rolling code device, repeat Steps 1 through 6, substituting a different function button in Step 4.
Fixed Code Programming
Note: It may be helpful to have another person assist you in programming the transmitter.
To program units with fixed code DIP switches, you will need the garage door hand-held transmitter, paper and a pen or pencil.
1. Switch the ignition on.
2. Open the battery cover and note all the switch settings from left to right.
When the switch is in the up, on, or + position, mark down “left button”.
When the switch is in the middle, neutral, or 0 position, mark down “middle button”.
When the switch is in the down, off, or – position, mark down “right button”.
3. Press all three function buttons simultaneously for a few seconds and then release. The LED lamps will flash slowly.
Note: The following step must be completed within 2.5 minutes.
4. Enter the corresponding DIP switch settings from left to right into the system
by pressing and releasing the buttons corresponding to the settings you noted.
5. Simultaneously press and release all three function buttons. The LED lamps will
illuminate.
6. Press and hold the function button you would like to use to control the garage door.
Note: You may need to hold the button from 5–55 seconds before observing movement of the garage door.
7. When the garage door moves, release the button within one second.
When the button is released, the LED lamp will flash slowly.
8. The LED lamp will begin to flash rapidly until programming is complete. If your
garage door does not operate, repeat the previous steps. Otherwise, call the toll-free
help line at 1-866-572-2728.
The LED lamp above the selected button will illuminate to confirm that the system is responding to the button command.
Erasing the Function Button Codes
Note: You cannot erase individual buttons.
1. Press and hold the outer two function buttons simultaneously for approximately
20 seconds until the LED lamps above the buttons flash rapidly.
