Note to Canadian users:

    • During programming, the customer's hand-held transmitter may automatically stop programming after 1 or 2 seconds. This may not be enough time to program the UGDO transmitter. If you are using one of these transmitters, the light on the UGDO transmitter may emit a series of double flashes. These flashes prompt you to reactivate the hand-held transmitter. After you have reactivated the transmitter, the light on the UGDO transmitter will flash rapidly, indicating that programming has been successful. If the light returns to a slow flash, reactivate the hand-held transmitter until the light flashes rapidly.
    •  Refer to Garage Door Opener Cell 136 in Electrical Diagnosis for electrical schematics under the following conditions:
       - The light does not perform as indicated.
       - The opener does not function properly.
