BASIC NOTES ON ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION:
Assembly and installation should be done by trained personnel.
IMPORTANT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS: For proper installation of the awning, the instructions for
assembly and installation must be carefully followed step by step. Keep plastic bags or any other
mounting pieces out of children’s reach.
Do not alter the design or the configuration of the system, nor modify the installation method
without consulting the manufacturer or an authorised representative.
If the awning is motorised and there is a switch, this should be placed so that the user does not
interfere with the movement of the awning, and at a height of less than 1.3 metres when possi-
ble.
If the awning is manually operated, it should be accessible at a height of 1.8 metres.
If the awning is to be installed in windy areas where there are frequent blackouts, manual opera-
tion or the use of a back-up generator is recommended.
When motorised units are inspected or repaired, always disconnect them from the power supply.
BASIC PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING OF THE AWNING:
The awning must be rolled away:
I
n the event of ice, if operation is particularly difficult and in the absence of safety measures,
stop the operation until more favorable conditions prevail
During opening and closing, make sure there is no obstacle which could get in the way. NEVER
FORCE THE AWNING!. If the awning does not move at all when you try to operate it, call a profes-
sional installer.
In the case of motorized awnings, it should be borne in mind that the motor features a thermal
safety device to avoid overheating and breakdowns. This device is activated when the operating
switches are pressed insistently.
Do not submit the installation to additional loads or stresses not covered by the manufacturer’s
configuration. Do not interfere with the system’s fixing components.
Examine the installation if it has been subjected to adverse weather conditions, and if any
repairs are needed do not use it. In such cases, a professional installer should be called.
Keep the installation clean and in good condition. A yearly maintenance check by an au-
thorized professional installer is recommended.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. The system has powerful springs inside it. In the event
of poor installation, these may cause the awning to open sharply. If any irregularities are ob-
served during opening and/or closing, call a professional installer. To avoid possible dam-
age, do not allow children to play with the awning.
