garage door will introduce fresh air and may cause fire to
spread rapidly.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

4 - English
Your garage door opener can be operated remotely on
the smartphone app.
The communication distance (range) between your
garage door opener and your Wi-Fi router may be 100
feet (30 meters) inside your home. A number of factors in
and around your home may reduce this range including
the number of floors, number/size of rooms, furniture
and types of building materials used for construction.
Examples may include suspended ceilings, ductwork,
large metallic appliances (refrigerators), and metal studs.
Interference from these factors in your home can be
overcome by adding Wi-Fi signal boosters to extend the
range of the wireless signal from your router in your home.
NOTE:
1.The range and proper operation of any wireless device
will vary depending on factors in and around your home.
2.Your garage door opener may not transmit between
buildings. If you have a detached garage, your garage
door opener may not communicate properly with your
Wi-Fi router.
3.Metal objects (e.g. wall studs) and metallic wallpaper may
interfere with the signal from your Garage Door Opener.
You will need to test your Garage Door Opener after any
changes to your home or garage including remodeling,
moving furniture, and installing new appliances or devices
that communicate with your Wi-Fi router.
NOTICE:
It is important that the wireless signal from your router is
secured. An unsecured signal could allow unauthorized
access to devices communicating on your home network,
including your garage door opener.
Since the 1990s, security algorithms have been used
to encrypt and protect wireless signals. The two most
commonly used algorithms are WEP and WPA/WPA2.
• WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is the oldest and most
widely used security algorithm. Despite its popularity,
this algorithm is the most susceptible to hacking. The
network passwords used to protect WEP networks
have to be exactly 10 or 26 characters long and
can only include hexadecimal characters (a-f and
0-9). By modern standards, passwords with these
limitations are not complex enough to offer adequate
security. In 2005, the Federal Bureau of Investigation
demonstrated WEP’s vulnerabilities by easily cracking
WEP passwords using publicly available software.
Due to serious security concerns, your garage
door opener will not connect to routers using WEP
network security. Refer to your router’s operator’s
manual to change the security type to WPA/WPA2.
• WPA/WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access) was created
as a safer alternative to WEP. The cryptographic
technology in this algorithm is far superior to that of its
predecessor. WPA/WPA2 passwords can be up to 63
characters long and include hexadecimal characters
as well as any printable ASCII characters (a-z, 0-9,
punctuation marks, and some glyphs). Although it
offers greater protections, WPA/WPA2 networks can
still be vulnerable if weak passwords are used. Always
use a strong password that includes upper and lower
case letters, punctuation marks, numbers, and glyphs
(if supported) to reduce the risk of the password being
cracked or guessed by unauthorized parties.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This product has a precision-built electric motor. It should be
connected to a power supply that is nominal 120V/60Hz
AC (typical U.S. household circuit). Do not operate this
product on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop
will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If
the product does not operate when plugged into an outlet,
double-check the power supply.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
See Figure 1.
This product must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction
or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.

equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet,
have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the grounding plug can result in a
risk of electric shock. When repair or replacement of the
cord is required, do not connect the grounding wire to
either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having
an outer surface that is green with or without yellow
stripes is the grounding wire.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 V circuit and has a
grounding plug similar to the plug illustrated in figure 1. Only
connecttheproductto anoutlet havingthesame configuration
as the plug. Do not use an adapter with this product.
GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER
See Figure 2.
The 10 amp, 120 volt receptacle on the garage door opener
is protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI),
which guards against the hazards of ground fault currents.

INSTALLATION

20 - English
Torsion Spring Extension Spring
WARNING:
Many of the steps described in this INSTALLATION
section require the use of a ladder. Use extreme care
when standing on a ladder. Ensure someone is holding
the ladder on the ground to keep it stable. Failure to
safely use a ladder can cause a fall and result in death
or serious personal injury.
CHECK THE CONDITION OF THE DOOR AND
IDENTIFY THE SPRING TYPE
See Figure 26 - 28.
WARNING:
If the garage door does not move smoothly, binds, or is
out of balance, have it repaired or replaced by a qualified
service person. An unbalanced or damaged garage door
may not reverse on command, which can result in death
or serious personal injury.
NOTICE:
The garage door opener may not function as intended if
installed onto an unbalanced garage door.
Remove any ropes attached to the garage door.
Disable any and all door locks.
Raise and lower the door to ensure it moves smoothly.
Check the balance of the door. Raise the door until it is
half open and release it. If properly balanced, the door
will remain in this position without moving.
NOTE: For single-panel garage doors, balance can be
checked at two additional positions. Raise the door until it
is nearly in the fully open position (about shoulder height)
and release it. If properly balanced, the door should
move to the fully open position. Lower the door until it
is nearly in the fully closed position (about knee height).
If properly balanced, the door should move to the fully
closed position.
If the door does not move smoothly, binds, or is out of
balance, this could indicate a problem with the door, door
springs (torsion spring and/or extension spring), or door
spring components. Have the garage door or door springs
repaired by a qualified service person before installing the
garage door opener.
