Use and Care Manual
8 - English
GFCI receptacles do not protect against short circuits, 
overloads, or shocks.
The GFCI receptacles can be tested with the TEST and 
RESET buttons.
To test:
Open the console door.
Depress the TEST button. This should cause the RESET 
button to pop out.
To restore power, depress the RESET button.
Perform this test monthly to ensure proper operation of the 
GFCI.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This product has a precision-built electric motor. It should 
be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, AC only 
(normal household current), 60 Hz. Except with battery 
pack installed, a substantial voltage drop will cause a loss 
of power and the motor will overheat. If your product does 
not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the 
power supply.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
See Figure 1.
This product must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction 
or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance 
for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. 
This product is equipped with an electric cord having an 
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The 
plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly 
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes 
and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, 
have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. 
WARNING:
Improper connection of the grounding plug can result in a 
risk of electric shock. When repair or replacement of the 
cord is required, do not connect the grounding wire to 
either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having 
an outer surface that is green with or without yellow 
stripes is the grounding wire.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the 
grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if 
in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 V circuit and has a 
grounding plug similar to the plug illustrated in figure 1. Only 
connect the product to an outlet having the same configuration 
as the plug. Do not use an adapter with this product.
GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER
See Figure 2.
The 10 amp, 120 volt receptacles on the garage door opener 
are protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), 
which guards against the hazards of ground fault currents.
An example of ground fault current is the current that would 
flow through a person who is using an appliance with faulty 
insulation and, at the same time, is in contact with an electrical 
ground such as a plumbing fixture, wet floor, or earth.
