Safety recommendations
As the manufacturer has no direct control over the operation of the elebia® autohook, the safe handling
of the equipment is therefore the responsibility of the user and of the operating personnel. This list of
WHAT MUST and WHAT MUST NOT BE DONE is based on the ISO and ANSI standards. Ask your supervisor
for a copy. Each warning is identified either with the PRECAUTION or the WARNING sign, to indicate the
degree of seriousness.
NOTE: the system features a powerful magnet. Do not approach with metal items.
!
Magnetic cards, credit cards, hard disks and other magnetic elements may be damaged if brought close to the magnet.
!
NOTE: disconnect power sources prior to handling.

Under no circumstance does the manufacturer either accept any liability for the use of these recommen-
dations, which are voluntary, or guarantee them. The recommendations do not take precedence over
standards and regulations.

In the event of breakdown or malfunction, withdraw the mechanism and consult the technical service.
