ORIGINAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Important safety note:
Make sure that work on your electrical cabling and the associa-
ted connection work is only carried out by a qualified specialist.
Areas of application / use
On privately used gates
– Alterations and deviations from the illustrations as well as
printing errors are reserved.
– The performance of the actuator systems may be influenced
by various factors such as specific on-site construction and
conditions. No claims may arise based on the technical infor-
mation as this may differ in individual cases.
General safety regulations /
safety notes for the installer

manufacturing of the locking devices to be actuated, as well as
for deformations that may arise during the operation.
SAFETY AND NOTICES
– The installation must be carried out in accordance with the
standards EN 12453 and EN 12445. The force setting of the
automatic module must be adapted to the gate. The actuator
has a built-in safety device to prevent crushing injuries which
consists of a torque control. In any case it is necessary to adjust
the torque control to the gate appropriately.
– After hitting an obstacle the actuator will reverse direction.
– Level 4 is the factory programmed force setting.
– The safety devices (EN 12978 standard) allow the securing of
potentially hazardous areas and protect against mechanical
movement risks, such as crushing, dragging, and shearing
injuries. During the programming of the force setting the safety
shut-off will not be active.
– Before attempting any work on the system, the electrical
power supply should be disconnected.
– For each system it is recommended to use at least one light
signal as well as a one light barrier.
– BERNAL disclaims any liability regarding the safety and
smooth operation of the system, if components are used on the
system that were not supplied by BERNAL.
– The components that are part of the drive system are not
allowed to be altered in any way.
– The installer must hand over all information to the operator of
the system which concern the manual operation of the system
during emergencies as well as these installation instructions
which were supplied with the product.
– Neither children nor adults are allowed to dwell in the imme-
diate vicinity of the gate system during operation.
– The remote controls or other impulse transmitters must be
kept out of reach of children to prevent accidental activation of
the actuator.
– A passage between the gate leafs is only allowed when the
gate is fully open.
– The operator should not perform any repairs or execute di-
rect intervention to the system and only utilize qualified service
personnel to do so.
– Do not dispose of used batteries in the domestic trash!
Appropriate collection-boxes are available in certain retailer
localities.
– All procedures that are not expressly provided in these
instructions are not permitted.
