4 AP-specific safety instructions
For locking cylinders with anti-panic function, also observe the following
safety instructions:
WARNING
Failure of the escape door function
The use of unsuitable components or components that are not ready for
operation can impair the function of an escape door. If you use the anti-
panic cylinder in non-approved locks, the escape door function may be im-
paired and cannot be released again.
1. Make sure that all parts of the lock are ready for operation.
2. Make sure that the panic function of the mortise lock is ensured.
3. Please refer to the documentation of the lock manufacturer.
4. Only use the anti-panic cylinder within the specified temperatures.
5. Perform a function test after installation or battery change of the anti-
panic cylinder.
Malfunction of the anti-panic function due to unauthorised manipulation
The length of the Cylinder AX can be modified. If the AP side is removed, the anti-panic unit may
be damaged.

Do not change the length on the AP side.
CAUTION
Hand injuries from carrier springing back
A spring-loaded carrier is used in the anti-panic construction of the closing
cylinder. This carrier can spring back when it is not installed, causing hand
injuries.

Do not hold the anti-panic construction of the closing cylinders in the
area of the carrier.
NOTE
Maintenance interval of not more than one month for emergency exit
locks
As per European standard EN 179, Appendix C, all components in a locking
device must be checked at intervals no greater than one month to ensure
that they are in satisfactory working order as part of emergency exit locking
device maintenance.
