7 Test the Power Door Lock
1. With the door fully closed, check to ensure that the power lock
bolt is visible protruding through the track.
2. Press the button on the remote control to open the garage
door. The power door lock should retract before the door
begins to move.
3. Press the button on the remote control to close the garage
door. When the door reaches the fully closed position, the
power door lock should automatically activate to secure the
door.
NOTE: The power door lock can be manually released by
sliding the manual release handle to the open position.
However, if the power door lock does not function, contact
Chamberlain for a replacement.

To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a falling
garage door:

or unbalanced door could result in an open door falling
rapidly and/or unexpectedly.
• NEVER use emergency release handle unless garage
doorway is clear of persons and obstructions.
