Manual Release; Replacing The Transmitter Battery - King gates RING 180 PLUS Manual De Instrucciones

8. Instructions and Warnings for users of
RING gearmotors
• Before using your automation system for the first time, ask
the installer to explain the origin of any residual risks; take a few
minutes and read the users instructions manual given you by
the installer. Retain the manual for future use and deliver it to any
subsequent owner of the automation system.
• Your automation system is a machine that will faithfully
execute your commands; unreasonable or improper use may
generate dangers: do not operate the system if there are people,
animals or objects within its range of operation.
• Children: automation systems are designed to guarantee high
levels of safety and security. They are equipped with detection
devices that prevent movement if people or objects are in the way,
guaranteeing safe and reliable activation. However, children should
not be allowed to play in the vicinity of automated systems; to
prevent any accidental activations, keep all remote controls away
from children: they are not toys!
• Malfunctions. If you notice that your automation is not function-
ing properly, disconnect the power supply to the system and
operate the manual release device. Do not attempt to make
any repairs; call the installation technician and, in the meantime,
operate the system like a non-automatic gate after releasing the
gearmotor as described below.
• Maintenance. Like any machine, your automation needs regu-
lar periodic maintenance to ensure its long life and total safety.
Arrange a periodic maintenance schedule with your installation
technician. KING-gates recommends that maintenance checks
be carried out every six months for normal domestic use, but this
interval may vary depending on the intensity of use. Only quali-
fied personnel are authorized to carry out checks, maintenance
operations and repairs.
• Do not modify the system or its programming and adjustment
parameters in any way, even if you feel capable of doing it: your
installation technician is responsible for the system.
• The final test, the periodic maintenance operations and any repairs
must be documented by the person who has performed them;
these documents must remain under the custody of the owner of
the system.
• Disposal. At the end of its useful life, the automation must be
dismantled by qualified personnel, and the materials must be
recycled or disposed of in compliance with the legislation locally in
force.
• In the event of malfunctions or power failures. While you are
waiting for the technician to come (or for the power to be restored
if your system is not equipped with buffer batteries), you can
operate the system like any non-automatic gate. In order to do
this you need to manually release the gearmotor: this operation,
which is the only one that the user of the automation is authorized
to perform, has been carefully designed by KING-gates to make it
extremely easy, without any need for tools or physical exertion.

8.2 -

Replacing the transmitter battery

If your radio control, after a period of time, seems not to work as well,
or not to work at all, it may simply be that the battery is exhausted
(depending on the type of use, it may last from several months up to
one year and more). In this case you will see that the light confirming
the transmission is weak, or does not come on, or comes on only
briefly. Before calling the installation technician try exchanging the
battery with one from another operating transmitter: if the problem is
caused by a low battery, just replace it with another of the same type.
Batteries contain polluting substances: do not dispose of
them together with other waste but use the methods estab-
lished by local regulations.
