• Repeat the test.
• When the door reverses on the 1-1/2" (3.8 cm) board
(or 2x4 laid flat), remove the obstruction and run the
opener through 3 or 4 complete travel cycles to test
adjustment.
• If the unit continues to fail the Safety Reverse Test, call
for a trained door systems technician.

If the opener closes the door when the safety
reversing sensor is obstructed, do not operate the
door. Call for a trained door systems technician.
