USER GUIDE
14.0/ Key usage
14.1/ Getting started
If your Altea 3 is brand new or if it has been totally reset (configuration and key reset), the display will show
clock wise revolving digits.
That means that NO key is currently associated to (= known by) the control unit. In that state, only a blue
or red key can be recognized and associated to the Altea 3, which means you have two options:
Option 1: associating a blue key (with red key)
Just take a blue key and press the button. A beep will be heard and the blue key will automatically be asso-
ciated to the control unit. The Altea 3 will be switched ON and will start a new configuration check as
described in the first startup user's guide (“First startup.”, page 7). Follow the steps from there.
Option 2: associating a red key (control unit blank)
This option is generally chosen when you want to quickly re-associate all the keys you own to a Altea 3 that
has been totally reset (configu keys reset).
Just take a red key, press the button. A beep will be heard, the display will show a "C" (like configuration),
and the red key will automatically be associated to the control unit. From there, you need to associate other
keys to your Altea 3, otherwise you will just stay in this configuration mode (with the "C" still displayed) and
will not be able to use the control unit.
Just associate the other keys you have to the Altea 3 by following the relevant procedure (“Associating blue,
green or yellow keys to a Altea 3”, page 20).
