THE PROTECTOR SYSTEM® (SAFETY REVERSING SENSORS, SOLD SEPARATELY)
When properly connected and aligned, the safety reversing sensors will detect an obstruction in the
path of the infrared beam. If an obstruction breaks the infrared beam while the door is closing, the door
will stop and reverse to full open position, and the opener lights will fl ash 10 times. If the door is fully
open, and the safety reversing sensors are not installed, or are misaligned, the door will not close from
a remote control. However, you can close the door if you hold the button on the door control or keyless
entry until the door is fully closed. The safety reversing sensors do not e ff ect the opening cycle. The
optional protector system (safety reversing sensors) must be installed for Unattended Operation to
work.
Using Your Garage Door Opener
The garage door opener can be activated through a wall-mounted door control, remote control, wireless
keyless entry or myQ® accessory. When the door is closed and the garage door opener is activated
the door will open. If the door senses an obstruction or is interrupted while opening the door will stop.
When the door is in any position other than closed and the garage door opener is activated the door
will close. If the garage door opener senses an obstruction while closing, the door will reverse. If the
obstruction interrupts the sensor beam the garage door opener lights will blink 10 times. However,
you can close the door if you hold the button on the door control or keyless entry until the door is fully
closed. The safety reversing sensors do not a ff ect the opening cycle. The safety reversing sensor must
be connected and aligned correctly before the garage door opener will move in the down direction.
