Introduction
Preparing Your Garage
Door
BEFORE YOU BEGIN:
• Disable locks.
• Remove any ropes connected to the
garage door.
Complete the following test to make sure
the garage door is balanced and is not
sticking or binding:
1. Lift the door halfway up. Release
the door. If balanced, it should stay
in place, supported entirely by its
springs.
2. Raise and lower the door to check for
binding or sticking.
3. Doors heavier than 650 lbs. should
NOT open or fall rapidly.
If your door binds, sticks, or is out of
balance, call a trained door systems
technician.
4. Verify equal cable tension on each
side of door. Cable tension should
remain equal during the entire travel
of the door.
To prevent damage to garage door and opener:
• ALWAYS disable locks BEFORE installing and operating the opener.
• ONLY operate garage door opener at 120V, 60Hz to avoid malfunction and
damage.
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH:
• ALWAYS call a trained door systems technician if garage door binds, sticks, or is
out of balance. An unbalanced garage door may NOT reverse when required.
• NEVER try to loosen, move or adjust garage door, door springs, cables, pulleys,
brackets or their hardware, ALL of which are under EXTREME tension.
• Disable ALL locks and remove ALL ropes connected to garage door BEFORE
installing and operating garage door opener to avoid entanglement.
• This opener system is equipped with an unattended operation feature. The door
could move unexpectedly. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING
DOOR.

The safety reversing sensor must be connected and aligned correctly before the
garage door will move in the down direction. This is a required safety device and
cannot be disabled.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSOR
When properly connected and aligned, the safety reversing sensor will detect an obstacle
in the path of its electronic beam. The sending sensor (with an amber indicator light)
transmits an invisible light beam to the receiving sensor (with a green indicator light).
If an obstruction breaks the light beam while the door is closing, the door will stop and
reverse to full open position, and the opener lights will fl ash 10 times.
The sensors must be installed inside the garage so that the sending and receiving sensors
face each other across the door, no more than 6 inches (15 cm) above the fl oor. Either
can be installed on the left or right of the door as long as the sun never shines directly into
the receiving sensor lens.
The mounting brackets are designed to clip onto the track of sectional garage doors
without additional hardware.
If it is necessary to mount the sensors on the wall, the brackets must be securely fastened
to a solid surface such as the wall framing. Extension brackets (see accessories) are
available if needed. If installing in masonry construction, add a piece of wood at each
location to avoid drilling extra holes in masonry if repositioning is necessary.
The invisible light beam path must be unobstructed. No part of the garage door (door
tracks, springs, hinges, rollers or other hardware) may interrupt the beam while the door
is closing.
Be sure power is NOT connected to the
garage door opener BEFORE installing
the safety reversing sensor.
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH from a closing garage door:
• Correctly connect and align the
safety reversing sensor. This
required safety device MUST NOT
be disabled.
• Install the safety reversing sensor
so beam is NO HIGHER than 6" (15
cm) above garage fl oor.

FEATURES
Your garage door opener is equipped with
features to provide you with greater control
over your garage door operation.
Alert2Close
The Alert2Close feature provides a visual
and an audible alert that an unattended
door is closing.
TIMER-TO-CLOSE (TTC)
The TTC feature automatically closes the
door after a specifi ed time period that can
be adjusted using a TTC enabled door
control (Models 881LMW or 880LMW).
Prior to and during the door closing the
garage door opener lights will fl ash and the
garage door opener will beep.
MyQ®
MyQ allows you to control your garage
door opener from your mobile device or
computer from anywhere. MyQ technology
uses a 900Mhz signal to provide two way
communication between the garage door
opener and MyQ enabled accessories.
The garage door opener has an internal
gateway that allows the garage door
opener to communicate directly with a
home Wi-Fi® network and access your MyQ
account.
Using Your Garage Door Opener
THE PROTECTOR SYSTEM® (SAFETY
REVERSING SENSORS)
When properly connected and aligned,
the safety reversing sensors will detect
an obstruction in the path of the infrared
beam. If an obstruction breaks the infrared
beam while the door is closing, the door
will stop and reverse to full open position,
and the opener lights will fl ash 10 times.
If the door is fully open, and the safety
reversing sensors are not installed, or are
misaligned, the door will not close from
a remote control. However, you can close
the door if you hold the button on the door
control or keyless entry until the door is
fully closed. The safety reversing sensors
do not affect the opening cycle. For more
information see page 21.
ENERGY CONSERVATION
For energy effi ciency the garage door
opener will enter sleep mode when the
door is fully closed. The sleep mode
shuts the garage door opener down until
activated. The sleep mode is sequenced
with the garage door opener light; as the
light turns off the sensor LEDs will turn
off and whenever the garage door opener
lights turn on the sensor LEDs will light.
The garage door opener will not go into the
sleep mode until the garage door opener
has completed 5 cycles upon power up.
LIGHTS
The garage door opener light will turn on
when the opener is initially plugged in;
power is restored after interruption, or
when the garage door opener is activated.
The light will turn off automatically after
4-1/2 minutes.
Light Feature
The garage door opener is equipped with
an added feature; the lights will turn on
when someone enters through the open
garage door and the safety reversing
sensor infrared beam is broken. For added
control over the light on your garage door
opener, see page 27.
USING YOUR GARAGE DOOR
OPENER
The garage door opener can be activated
through a wall-mounted door control,
remote control, wireless keyless entry or
MyQ® accessory. When the door is closed
and the garage door opener is activated
the door will open. If the door senses an
obstruction or is interrupted while opening
the door will stop. When the door is in any
position other than closed and the garage
door opener is activated the door will
close. If the garage door opener senses
an obstruction while closing, the door will
reverse. If the obstruction interrupts the
sensor beam the garage door opener lights
will blink 10 times. However, you can close
the door if you hold the button on the door
control or keyless entry until the door is
fully closed. The safety reversing sensors
do not affect the opening cycle. The safety
reversing sensor must be connected and
aligned correctly before the garage door
opener will move in the down direction.
BATTERY BACKUP
The battery backup system allows access
in and out of your garage, even when the
power is out. When the garage door opener
is operating on battery power, the garage
door opener will run slower, the light will
not function, the Battery Status LED will
glow solid orange, and a beep will sound
approximately every 2 seconds.

Troubleshooting
The garage door opener doesn't operate from either the door control or the remote control:
• Does the garage door opener have electric power? Plug a lamp into the outlet. If it doesn't light, check the fuse box or the circuit
breaker. (Some outlets are controlled by a wall switch.)
• Have you disabled all door locks? Review installation instruction warnings on page 8.
• Are the wiring connections correct? Review Installation Step 5.
• Is there a build-up of ice or snow under the door? The door may be frozen to the ground. Remove any restriction.
• The garage door spring may be broken. Have it replaced (see page 3 for reference).
The door opener operates from the single button control station, but not from a remote control:
• Reprogram the remote control and replace the battery if necessary. Repeat with all remote controls.
The door opens and closes byitself:
• Be sure that all remote control push buttons are off.
• Remove the bell wire from the single button control station terminals and operate from the remote only. If this solves the problem,
the single button control station is faulty, or there is an intermittent short in the wire. Replace the control station.
• Erase the memory and reprogram all remote controls (refer to the instructions provided with the remote control or visit
LiftMaster.com).
My remote control will not activate the garage door:
• Verify the lock feature is not activated on the door control.
• Reprogram the remote control.
• If the remote control will still not activate the door check the diagnostic codes to ensure the garage door opener is working
properly.
The remote control has short range:
• Change the location of the remote control in your car.
• Some installations may have shorter range due to a metal door, foil backed insulation, or metal garage siding.
The door doesn't open completely:
• Check power door lock.
• Is something obstructing the door? Is it out of balance, or are the springs broken? Remove the obstruction or repair the door.
The door opens but won't close:
• Check that cable tension monitor is correctly installed. If a second cable tension monitor has been removed, follow the instructions
to relearn a single cable tension monitor (See Installation Step 4).
• The safety reversing sensor must be connected and aligned correctly before the door opener will move in the down direction. If you
are able to close the door using constant pressure, verify the safety reversing sensors are properly installed, aligned and free of any
obstructions (see page 14).
• If the garage door opener lights blink, check the safety reversing sensors (see page 18).
• If the garage door opener lights don’t blink and it is a new installation see Adjustment Step 1. For an existing installation, see below.
Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment iscomplete.
The door reverses for no apparent reason and garage door opener lights don’t blink:
• Check that cable tension monitor is correctly installed. If a second cable tension monitor has been removed, follow the instructions
to relearn a single cable tension monitor (See Installation Step 4).
• Is something obstructing the door? Pull the emergency release handle. Operate the door manually. If it is unbalanced or binding,
call a trained door systems technician.
• Clear any ice or snow from the garage fl oor area where the door closes.
• Review Adjustment Step 1.
Repeat safety reverse test after adjustments.
My door will not close and the light blinks:
The safety reversing sensor must be connected and aligned correctly before the garage door opener will move in the down direction.
• Verify the safety sensors are properly installed, aligned and free of any obstructions.
The garage door opener strains to operate door:
• The door may be out of balance or the springs may be broken. Close the door and use the emergency release handle to disconnect
the door. Open and close the door manually. A properly balanced door will stay in any point of travel while being supported entirely
by its springs. If it does not, disconnect the garage door opener and call a trained door systems technician.
The garage door opener motor hums briefl y, then won't work:
• The garage door springs may be broken. See above.
• If the problem occurs on the fi rst operation of the garage door opener, door may be locked. Disable the power door lock.
