7 - INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS FOR THE END USER

Key Automation S.r.l. produces systems for the automation of gates,
garage doors, automatic doors, roller blinds and car-park and road
barriers. However, Key Automation is not the manufacturer of
your complete automation system, which is the outcome of the
analysis, assessment, choice of materials and installation work of
your chosen installer. Every automation system is unique, and only
your installer has the experience and skill required to produce a
safe, reliable, durable system tailored to your needs, and above
all that complies with the relevant regulatory standards. Although
your automation system complies with the regulation safety level,
this does not rule out the presence of "residual risk", meaning the
possibility that hazards may occur, usually due to reckless or even
incorrect use. We would therefore like to give you some advice for
the correct use of the system:
• before using the automation system for the first time, have the
installer explain the potential causes of residual risks to you;
• keep the manual for future reference, and pass it on to any new
owner of the automation system;
• reckless use and misuse of the automation system may make
it dangerous: do not operate the automation system with people,
animal or objects within its range of action;
• a properly designed automation system has a high level of safety,
since its sensor systems prevent it from moving with people or
obstacles present so that its operation is always predictable and
safe. However, as a precaution children should not be allowed to
play close to the automation system, and to prevent involuntary
activation, remote controls must not be left within their reach;
• as soon as any system malfunction is noticed, disconnect the
electricity supply and perform the manual release procedure. Never
attempt repairs on your own; call in your installation engineer. In
the meantime the door or gate can be operated without automation
once the geared motor has been released using the release key
supplied with the system. In the event of safety devices out of
service arrange for repairs to the automation immediately;
• in the event of malfunctions or power failures: while waiting
for the engineer to come (or for the power to be restored if your
system is not equipped with buffer batteries), the door or gate can
be used just like any non-automated installation. To do this, the
manual release procedure must be carried out;
32
• manual release and operation: first bear in mind that the release
procedure can only be carried out with the door or gate stationery.
• Maintenance: Like any machine, your automation system needs
regular periodic maintenance to ensure its long life and total safety.
Arrange a periodic maintenance schedule with your installation
engineer. Key Automation recommends that maintenance checks
should be carried out every six months for normal domestic use,
but this interval may vary depending on the level of use. Any
inspection, maintenance or repair work must only be carried out
by qualified staff.
• Never modify the automation system or its programming and
setup parameters: this is the responsibility of your installation
engineer.
• Testing, routine maintenance and any repairs must be recorded
by the person who performs them and the documents must be
conserved by the system's owner.
The only procedures you are capable of, and which you are
recommended to perform, are cleaning of the photocell glass and
removal of any leaves or stones that may obstruct the automation
system. To prevent anyone from activating the gate or door,
release the automation system before starting. Clean only with a
cloth dipped in a little water.
At the end of its useful life, the automation system must be
dismantled by qualified personnel, and the materials must be
recycled or disposed of in compliance with the legislation locally
in force.
If after some time your remote control seems to have become
less effective, or stops operating completely, the battery may be
flat (depending on the level of use, this may take from several
months up to more than a year). You will realise this because the
transmission confirmation light does not come on, or only lights up
for a very short time.
Batteries contain pollutants: do not dispose of them with normal
waste but follow the methods specified by the local regulations.
