Start by Reading These Important Safety Instructions

WARNING: Failure to comply with the following instructions may result in serious personal injury or property damage.

• Read these instructions carefully and follow ALL instructions carefully

• The garage door opener is designed and tested to offer reasonable safe service provided it is installed and

operated in strict accordance with the instructions in this manual.

These safety alert symbols mean WARNING – a personal safety or property damage instruction. Read these instructions carefully.

Warning: If your garage has no service entrance door, a 1702EV outside quick release must be installed. This accessory allows manual operation of the garage door from outside in case of power failure.

Keep garage door balanced. Do not let the garage door opener compensate for a binding or sticking garage door. Sticking, binding or unbalanced doors must be repaired before installing this opener.

Do not wear rings, watches or loose clothing while installing or servicing a garage door opener. Wear gloves and suitable protective clothing where appropriate.

Frequently examine the door installation, in particular cable, springs and mountings for signs of wear, damage or imbalance. Do not use if repair or adjustment is needed since springs and hardware are under extreme tension and a fault

can cause serious personal injury.

To avoid serious personal injury from entanglement, remove all ropes, chains and locks connected to the garage door before installing the door opener.

Installation and wiring must be in compliance with your local building and electrical codes.

The safety reverse system test is very important. Your garage door MUST reverse on contact with a 50 mm obstacle placed on the floor. Failure to properly adjust the opener may result in serious personal injury from a closing garage door.

The door should not go back, if it reaches the door position „Closed“. If it still reverses both limits must be reprogrammed.

OPENING TEST: Apply 20 kg to the middle of the door. The door should not open completely.

Repeat the test once a month and make any necessary adjustments.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capablities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the

appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Automatic Drive - Keep away from the area of the door as it may operate unexpectedly.

This opener should not be installed in a damp or wet space exposed to weather.

The opener must not be used on a wicket door (door within a door).

The Protector SystemTMmust be used for all installations where the closing force as measured on the bottom of the door is over 400 N (40 kg). Excessive force will interfere with the proper operation of the safety reverse system or damage the garage door.

After installation, ensure that the parts of the door do not extend over public footpaths or roads.

Install the wireless wall control (or any additional wall control) in a location where the garage door is visible away from moving parts, at a height of at least 1.5 m and out of the reach of children. Do not allow children to operate push button(s) or transmitter(s). Serious personal injury from a closing garage door may result from misuse of the opener.

Permanently fasten the Warning Labels in prominent places, adjacent to wall controls and manual release mechanisms as a reminder of safe operating procedures.

Activate opener only when the door is in full view, free of obstructions and the opener is properly adjusted. No one should enter or leave the garage while the door is in motion.

Do not allow children to play near the door, or with door controls.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid hazard.

Disconnect electric power and battery to the garage door opener before making repairs or removing covers.
