The concept

This system can replace up to three different hand-held transmitters for various types of remote- controlled equipment, such as garage doors or lighting systems.

The hand-held transmitter signal can be programmed on one of the three memory buttons.

The corresponding device can then be operated using the programmed memory button.

The LED indicates that a signal is being transmitted. When selling the vehicle, delete the stored programs for security reasons.

During programming and before activating During programming

During programming and before activating a device using the universal remote control, ensure that there are no people, animals, or objects in the range of movement of the remotecontrolled device; otherwise, there is a risk of injury or damage.

Also follow the safety instructions of the handheld transmitter.
