2.4. Safety instructions relating to operation

WARNING
This motorisation may be used by children aged 8 and
over and by persons whose physical, sensory or mental
capacity is impaired, or persons with little experience or
knowledge, as long as they are under supervision or have
received instructions on safe use of the motorisation and
fully understand the associated risks.
Do not allow children to play with the gate control devices.
Keep remote controls out of the reach of children.
Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the
unit.
The sound pressure level of the motorisation is less than or
equal to 70 dB(A). The noise emitted by the structure to which
the motorisation will be connected is not taken into account.
WARNING
Any potential users must be shown how to use
the motorisation by the installer, applying all the
recommendations in this manual. It is essential to ensure
that no untrained persons are able to put the gate into
motion.
The user must monitor the gate each time it moves and
keep people away from it until it is completely open or

DANGER
The motorisation must be disconnected from any power
supply during cleaning and maintenance and when parts
are replaced.
Do not try to open the gate manually if the motorisation has
not been unlocked.
WARNING
Manual unlocking may result in uncontrolled movement
of the gate.
Ensure that no natural obstacles (branches, stones, tall
grasses, etc.) are able to obstruct the movement of the gate.
If the installation is equipped with photoelectric cells and/or
an orange light, regularly clean the photoelectric cell optical
units and the orange light.
Have the motorisation checked every year by a qualified
technician.
WARNING
Every month, check:
• the installation, looking for any signs of wear or
damage to the cables and assembly.
• that the motorisation changes direction when the gate
encounters an object measuring 50 mm positioned
halfway up the leaf.
If this is not the case, contact a professional motorisation
and home automation installer immediately.
WARNING
Do not use the motorisation if it needs repairing or
adjusting. Gates in poor condition must be repaired,
reinforced or even replaced.
DANGER
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced
by the installer, the after-sales department or an individual
with similar qualifications to prevent any danger.

2.5. About the batteries

DANGER
Do not leave batteries of any kind within reach of children.
Keep them in a place inaccessible to children. There is
a risk that they could be swallowed by children or pets.
Danger of death! If this does occur, seek medical advice
immediately or go to hospital.
Ensure that the batteries are not short-circuited, thrown
in the fire or recharged. There is a risk of explosion.

2.6. Recycling and disposal

If installed, the battery must be removed from the motorisation
before the latter is disposed of.
Do not dispose of used remote control or other
batteries, if installed, with household waste. They
must be taken to the relevant recycling points.
Do not dispose of the motorisation with household
waste at the end of its life. Return the motorisation to
its distributor or use your local authority's special
waste collection services.
