You need to attach the string to the emergency release lever on your garage door opener. Detailed instructions are provided in the product's setup section and your opener's manual.

What should I do if the string looks worn?

If the string appears frayed or worn, it should be replaced immediately to ensure it functions reliably in an emergency.

Is this product required if I have a second door into my house?

While not strictly required, it is highly recommended for any garage door system, especially if it's your primary entry point, to ensure access during power failures. The description specifically notes it's required for garages *without* a second access point.

Troubleshooting

String does not disengage the opener

Verify that the string is correctly attached to the release mechanism and that the mechanism itself is functioning. Check for obstructions. Ensure you are pulling the string with sufficient force as per the Hörmann manual.

String feels weak or frayed

Immediately replace the string. Continued use of a damaged string can lead to failure during an emergency.

Opener re-engages automatically after release

Consult your Hörmann garage door opener manual. Some systems may require a specific manual re-engagement procedure after using the emergency release.
