Intended use

The external roller blind is intended for external use on
skylights and protects against heat.
It may only be installed and used on the Roto skylight
types designed for their use.
The external roller blind reflects and absorbs a large
portion of heat radiation, but does not offer full heat
protection (in a physical sense).
Do not place additional strain, such as that from sus-
pended objects, on the external roller blind as this may
damage the product.
No alterations, additions, conversions or maintenance
work other than the activities described here are to be
carried out on the product without the written approval
of Roto.
