remain on for 4-1/2 minutes. Press again to turn it off sooner.
The 4-1/2 minute interval can be changed to 1-1/2, 2-1/2, or
3-1/2 minutes as follows: Press and hold the Lock button
until the light blinks (about 10 seconds). A single blink
indicates that the timer is reset to 1-1/2 minutes. Repeat the
procedure and the light will blink twice, resetting the timer to
2-1/2 minutes. Repeat again for a 3-1/2 minute interval, etc.,
up to a maximum of four blinks and 4-1/2 minutes.

recommend that you first disable the motion sensor. See

To disable this feature, push the motion sensing
button on the side of the door control.
We recommend that you disable the motion sensor when
