Safety Notes and Mounting
If the garage does not have a service entrance door, an
additional outside EMERGENCY release must be installed.
The garage door opener is equipped with a self-locking
drive and hold the garage door closed.
This emergency release has to be checked several times a
year for proper functionality.
Persons with limited physical, sensorial or mental abilities
are not allowed to use the unit, unless they are supervised
and briefed for their safety by a qualified person.
Do not misuse the EMERGENCY release for everyday use
to open the garage door.
Intended Use
The EMERGENCY release is suitable for one-piece doors and
sectional doors. The accessory can be installed on garage
doors that are made of different material and have different
material thickness.
Mounting Conditions
The EMERGENCY release generally should be positioned in
the centre, approx. 10 – 40 cm below the upper edge of the
door. As a large number of garage door systems are available,
process with installation according to local conditions.
If possible, remove the existing garage door lock and use the
hole for the EMERGENCY release socket. By doing this you
do not need to drill a new hole.
