passes through the beam. LED indicator lights on the power head and on the STBs provide a self diagnostic code
if an operational problem exists.
Safe-T-Reverse® Contact Reversing System
Automatically stops and reverses a closing door within two seconds of contact with an object.
Automatic ForceGuard™Control
Automatically sets the minimum force required to fully open and close the door for maximum safety.
Watch Dog™Monitoring System
Monitors the Safe-T-Beam® system to ensure proper functionality and will automatically stop and reverse a
closing door if a problem is detected.
Automatic Lighting System
Two bulb lighting system supplies up to 200 Watts of light for safer evening exits and entries. Turns ON when
door is activated and automatically turns OFF 4 minutes later.
Manual Emergency Release
Manually releases door from door opener. Used during a power failure or other emergency to allow manual
opening and closing of door.
Ener-Genie™ Battery Back Up
Easily adjust the programming to reduce opening speed to a desired rate, optionally adjust limits and force, and
program new remotes.
SmartSet™ Electronic Programming
Easily adjust the programming to reduce opening speed to a desired rate, vary limits and force, and program new
remotes.
Integrated Motion Detection (Not available on all models)
Select units have motion detection built into the power head. Lights automatically turn ON when motion is

feet above the floor.
5. Do NOT connect the opener to source of power until
instructed to do so.
6. Locate the wall console:
• Within sight of the garage door,
• At minimum height of 5 feet so small children
are not able to reach it, and
• Away from all moving parts of the door.
7. Install the Entrapment WARNING Label next to the
wall console in a prominent location.
8. After installing the opener, the door must reverse
within 2 seconds when it contacts a 1-1/2 inch high
object (or a 2 x 4 board laid flat) on the floor.
OPENER MUST BE INSTALLED WITH THE INCLUDED
WALL CONSOLE. Safe-T-Beam® SAFETY REVERSE SYSTEM MUST BE INSTALLED TO CLOSE DOOR.

Earlier models of Genie® garage door openers,
remotes, and wireless keypads use IntelliCode®
1 signals to communicate. Remote(s) provided
with this unit will transmit either IntelliCode® 1 or
IntelliCode® 2 signals.
Remote(s) contained in this package are preset
to IntelliCode® 2 and can be configured to
communicate with previously installed IntelliCode®
1 openers. This dual IntelliCode® option allows one
IntelliCode® 2 remote to operate BOTH new and
current models of The Genie Company garage door
openers.
This new Genie® garage door opener will ONLY
accept signals from a remote sending IntelliCode® 2
signals or a Genie® brand IntelliCode® 1 remote that
has been programmed to the opener using a new
IntelliCode® 2 remote.
NOTE: Other remotes not enabled with Genie®
IntelliCode® 2 will not operate this opener.
