Information
If the signals cannot be assigned to the buttons
although you have followed this chapter and the
instructions for the original remote control carefully:
e
Contact an authorized Porsche dealer.

Make sure that there is a new battery in the
garage door opener remote control. Insufficient
battery power can cause malfunctions in signal
transmission. In this case, the system in the
vehicle learns an incorrect code that cannot be
reliably detected by the garage door drive system.
