Operation With Electric Drive Or Control System - Stobag TERRADO Mode D'emploi

Operating instructions
2.1

Operation with electric drive or control system

• We recommend to operate the sun protection systems with an electric drive, also avail-
able as an option, are controlled by a wind sensor or automatic sun-wind controller.
This will greatly reduce the risk of damage caused by wind and rain.
If the sun protection system is retracted by the wind sensor, on some models it may not
be possible to extend it again for 10 – 20 minutes during the wind blockage time.
• It should be remembered that strong gusts of wind may occur when a storm is brewing
and the wind sensor may not be able to react quickly enough.
• If the sun protection system does not have a sun or wind sensor, it must be retracted if
you leave the house for holidays, the weekend, shopping and at night.
• Awnings with electric drive and automatic control system must be set to manual opera-
tion during the winter months. Iced-up awnings should only be extended again when
the ice has melted.
• The electric drive is fitted with a thermal protection switch and is not designed for
permanent operation. If the drive overheats, because of frequent extensions and retrac-
tions, it will switch off automatically, no matter which position the awning is in. The
electric drive will operate again after a cooling-off period of 10 – 45 minutes, depending
on such factors as the outside temperature, power output and roller positioning.
• Sun protection systems with electric drives cannot be retracted in a power failure,
caused by a storm, for example. If you leave the house for a longer period for holidays
or the weekend, we recommend setting the automatic control system to manual
operation.
• In automatic operation, the area of extension and retraction must be free of obstacles.
The sun protection system must be operated in accordance with these instructions. Other
uses are improper. STOBAG cannot accept liability for damage caused by improper use.
