WARNING: When the Safety Beam is fitted, the doorway
must be clear of all obstructions and persons at all times.
Incorrect location of the safety beams may not give
safety protection at all times. Check to make sure that
the height of the beam gives maximum protection.
WARNING: Connect the Safety Beam as per diagram in
Fig 6.3.2. Tampering with the Safety Beam could result in
serious personal injury and/or property damage and will
void the warranty.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The Safety Beam must be installed and connected
