Programming the LEAR Car2U ™ Transmitter
Depending on your garage door opener manufacturer, LEAR Car2U ™ provides two easy ways
to program your garage door opener.
1. Rolling Code Garage Door Openers: If your garage door opener is a rolling code device
and do not have a row of dip switches use the “Programming Rolling Code Garage Door
Opener” procedure on page 4.
2. Fixed Code Garage Door Opener: If your garage door opener is a fixed code device and
has a row of dip switches use the “Programming Fixed Code Garage Door Opener”
procedure on page 6.
CAUTION
xDo not use the LEAR Car2U ™ Transmitter with any garage door opener that does not
have a “stop and reverse” feature. This includes any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982.
xRead the instructions completely before attempting to program the LEAR Car2U ™
transmitter. Because of the steps involved, it may be helpful to have another person
assist you in programming the transmitter.
xBe sure to keep the original remote control transmitter for use in other vehicles as well as
for future LEAR Car2U ™ programming. You only need it for fixed code device
programming. It is also recommended that upon the sale or lease termination of the
vehicle, the programmed LEAR Car2U ™ buttons should be erased for security reasons.
Refer to “Erasing LEAR Car2U ™ Buttons” or for assistance, contact LEAR Car2U ™
at 1-866-57Car2U.
xMake sure that people and objects are clear of the garage door opener or security device
you are programming. When programming a garage door, it is advised to park outside
the garage.
PROGRAMING CONSIDERATIONS:
Read the instructions completely before attempting to program Car2U.
The following items may assist you in programming the system:
oA ladder
oA screwdriver
oA writing pad and a pencil or pen
It may be helpful but is not required to have an additional person available when
programming Car2U.

procedures (i.e. new Car2U-equipped vehicle purchase).
Upon the sale of the vehicle, it is recommended that the programmed Car2U buttons
should be erased for security reasons (refer to “Erase Car2U Settings”).
Repeat the programming steps for each garage door opener you wish to program up to a
maximum of three.
CAUTION
Programming the Rolling Code Garage Door Opener involves time-sensitive actions.
Read the ENTIRE procedure prior to beginning so you will know which actions are time-
sensitive. If you do not follow the time-sensitive actions, the device will time out and
you will have to repeat the procedure.
