6 - INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS FOR THE END USER
Key Automation S.r.l. produces systems for the automation of gates,
garage doors, automatic doors, roller blinds and car-park and road
barriers. However, Key Automation is not the manufacturer of your
complete automation system, which is the outcome of the analysis,
assessment, choice of materials and installation work of your cho-
sen installer. Every automation system is unique, and only your
installer has the experience and skill required to produce a safe,
reliable, durable system tailored to your needs, and above all that
complies with the relevant regulatory standards. Although your au-
tomation system complies with the regulation safety level, this does
not rule out the presence of "residual risk", meaning the possibility
that hazards may occur, usually due to reckless or even incorrect
use. We would therefore like to give you some advice for the correct
use of the system:
be ore usin
he au oma ion sys em or he rs ime ha e he
installer explain the potential causes of residual risks to you;
keep he manual or u ure re erence and pass i on o any new
owner of the automation system;
reckless use and misuse o he au oma ion sys em may make i
dangerous: do not operate the automation system with people, ani-
mal or objects within its range of action;
a properly desi ned au oma ion sys em has a hi h le el o sa e y
since its sensor systems prevent it from moving with people or ob-
stacles present so that its operation is always predictable and safe.
However, as a precaution children should not be allowed to play clo-
se to the automation system, and to prevent involuntary activation,
remote controls must not be left within their reach;
as soon as any sys em mal unc ion is no iced disconnec he
electricity supply and perform the manual release procedure. Never
attempt repairs on your own; call in your installation engineer. In
the meantime the door or gate can be operated without automation
once the geared motor has been released using the release key
supplied with the system. In the event of safety devices out of ser-
vice arrange for repairs to the automation immediately;
in he e en o mal unc ions or power ailures while wai in
engineer to come (or for the power to be restored if your system is
not equipped with buffer batteries), the door or gate can be used just
like any non au oma ed ins alla ion
procedure must be carried out;
manual release and opera ion
procedure can only be carried out with the door or gate stationery.
