Programming remote controls

Before a new remote control can be used, it must be programmed. Up to four remote controls can be programmed.

To carry out the programming, the ignition key must be turned to position RUN and back to position OFF four times within 6 seconds.

The ignition is now switched off and the control module is in the programming mode for 10 seconds. This is indicated by illumination of the LED in the digital clock or by locking/unlocking.

Now a button on the remote control should be pressed. The remote control signal, if accepted by the control module, makes the LED in the digital clock flash or locking/unlocking occurs.

The next remote control must be programmed within the next 10 seconds.

The programming mode is terminated if no further remote control is programmed within 10 seconds or the ignition is switched on. The LED is no longer illuminated after termination of the programming mode.

After programming the remote controls must be checked.

Hope this helps.
