Even if your automated system satisfies regulatory safety levels, this does not
eliminate "residue risks", that is, the possibility of dangerous situations being
generated, usually due to irresponsible or incorrect use. For this reason we
would like to give you some suggestions on how to avoid these risks.
• Before using your automated system for the first time, ask your fitter
to explain how residue risks can arise and spend a few minutes reading the
instructions and warnings for the user handbook that the fitter will have
given you. Keep this manual for future use and, if you should ever sell your
automated system, hand it over to the new owner.
ATTENTION! – Your automation is a machine that follows your com-
mand faithfully; irresponsible and improper use can make it become
dangerous:
– Do not command movement of the automation if there are persons,
animals or objects within its radius of action.
– When operating a biased-off switch, make sure that other persons
are kept away.
– When operating the gate, keep an eye on the automated mechanism
and keep all bystanders at a safe distance until the movement has
been completed.
– It is prohibited to touch parts of the automation while the gate or the
door is in movement!
– The photocells are not a safety device but just an auxiliary device
regarding safety. They are constructed with very high reliability
technology but can, in extreme situations, undergo malfunctioning
or even break and, in certain cases, the breakdown may not be im-
mediately evident. For this reason, when using the automation, it is
necessary to pay attention to the following warnings:
- Transit is only allowed when the gate or door is completely open
with the panels at a standstill
- IT IS PROHIBITED to transit while the gate or door is closing!
- Periodically check the correct functioning of the photocells and
have the envisioned maintenance checks performed at least every 6
months.
• Children:
– This product is not intended to be used by persons (including children)
whose physical, sensory or mental capacities are reduced, or who lack the
necessary experience or skill.
– Children must not play with the appliance.
– Do not allow children to play with the fixed control devices of the product.
Keep the remote controls away from children.
– Cleaning and maintenance to be carried out by the user must not be carried
out by unsupervised children.
• Anomalies: if any anomalous behaviour is noticed, remove the electric pow-
er input to the plant and manually release the gear motor (see respective
instruction manual) to make the gate function manually. Do not perform any
self-taught repairs but request the intervention of your local installer.
• Maintenance: regular maintenance is required to keep the level of safety
constant and guarantee the maximum duration of the entire automation

(every 6 months). Any control, maintenance or repairs operation must
only be performed by qualified staff.
– Before working on the system (maintenance, cleaning), always disconnect
the product from the mains power supply.
– Do not operate the product if anyone is working nearby; disconnect its power
supply before permitting such work to be done.
• Do not modify the plant and programming parameters and control
unit regulation: your installer is responsible.
• The inspection, periodic maintenance and any repairs must be docu-
mented by whoever is carrying out the job. The documents must be
kept by the owner of the plant. The only interventions that the user can
perform periodically are cleaning the lenses of the photocells (use a slightly
damp soft cloth) and the removal of any leaves or stones that could block the
automation. Important – Release the gear motor manually before proceed-
ing in order to prevent the gate being activated accidentally (see respective
instruction book).
• Disposal: at the end of the automation's life span, make sure that it is dis-
posed of by qualified staff and that the materials are re-cycled or disposed of
in compliance with the Standards valid at a local level.
• Breakage or power cut: while waiting for the intervention of your installer
or the return of the power input, if the plant does not have buffer batteries,
the automation can be used all the same: the gear motor must be released
manually (see the dedicated paragraph successively) and move the gate
panel manually as desired.
RELEASE AND BLOCK THE GEAR MOTOR MANUALLY
The gear motor has a mechanical system that allows to open and close the
gate manually.
These manual operations must be performed if there is a power cut or function-
ing anomalies.
