Universal Programming Steps

Locate the LEARN button on your garage door opener (usually behind the light cover)
Press and release LEARN — LED will glow steady for 30 seconds
Press the remote button you want to program within 30 seconds
Wait for confirmation — Opener light will flash or click twice
Test — Press the button to confirm operation

Hormann: Inside the operator cover, near the antenna
NICE: Inside the control box, labeled LEARN or MEMO
