Before using your automation system for the first time
,
ask the installer to explain the origin of residual risks; take a few
minutes and read the users
instructions manual given you
by the installer
. Retain the manual for future use and deliver it
to any subsequent owner of the automation system.
•
Your automation system is a machine that will faithfully
execute your commands
; unreasonable or improper use
may generate dangers: do not operate the system if there are
people, animals or objects within its range of operation.
•
Children:
automation systems are designed to guarantee high
levels of safety and security. They are equipped with detection
devices that prevent movement if people or objects are in the
way, guaranteeing safe and reliable activation. However, chil-
dren should not be allowed to play in the vicinity of automated
systems; to prevent any accidental activations, keep all remote
controls away from children:
they are not toys!
•
Photocells do not constitute actual safety devices, but
safety aids
. They are designed using highly reliable technol-
ogy, but in extreme conditions may be subject to malfunctions
or potential faults, and in certain cases these faults are not
immediately evident.
For this reason, it is good practice to observe the following:
- Transit is admitted only if the gate or door is completely open
with the leafs stationary
- Transit while the gate or door is closing is
STRICTLY PRO-
HIBITED
!
Periodically check correct operation of the photocells and per-
form the scheduled maintenance at least every six months.
•
Malfunctions:
If you notice that your automation is not func-
tioning properly, disconnect the power supply to the system
and operate the manual release device. Do not attempt to
make any repairs; call the installation technician and in the
meantime, operate the system like a non-automatic door after
releasing the gearmotor as described below.
•
Maintenance:
Like any machine, your automation needs regu-
lar periodic maintenance to ensure its long life and total safety.
Arrange a periodic maintenance schedule with your installation
technician. Nice recommends that maintenance checks be
carried out every six months for normal domestic use, but this
interval may very depending on the intensity of use. Only quali-
fied personnel are authorised to carry out checks, maintenance
operations and repairs.
• Do not modify the system or its programming and adjustment
parameters in any way, even if you feel capable of doing it: your
installation technician is responsible for the system.
•The final test, the periodic maintenance operations and any
repairs must be documented by the person who has per-
formed them, these documents must remain under the custody
of the owner of the system.
The only recommended maintenance operations that the user can
perform periodically concern the cleaning of the photocell glasses
and the removal o
leaves and debris that may impede the
automation
. To prevent anyone from activating the gate release
the automation system. Use a slightly damp cloth to clean.
•
Disposal:
At the end of its useful life, the automation must
be dismantled by qualified personnel, and the materials must
be recycled or disposed of in compliance with the legislation
locally in force.
•
In the event of malfunctions or power failures.
While you
are waiting for the technician to come or for the power to be
restored if your system is not equipped with buffer batteries,
you can operate the system like any non-automatic gate. In
order to do this you need to manually release the gearmotor
(this operation is the only one that the user of the automation
is authorized to perform): This operation has been carefully
designed by Nice to make it extremely easy, without any need
for tools or physical exertion.
•
Replacing the Remote Control Battery:
if your radio control,
after a period of time, seems not to work as well, or not to work
at all, it may simply be that the battery is exhausted (depending
on the type of use, it may last from several months up to one
year and more). In this case you will see that the light confirming
the transmission is weak, or does not come on, or comes on
only briefly. Before calling the installation technician try exchang-
ing the battery with one from another operating transmitter:
if the problem is caused by a low battery, just replace it with
another of the same type. The batteries contain polluting sub-
stances: do not dispose of them together with other waste but
use the methods established by local regulations.
