all the following instructions. Incorrect installation or  incorrect use of the 

product  could  cause  serious harm   to people.

  2)  Carefully read the instructions before beginning to install the product.
  3)  Do not  leave packing materials (plastic, polystyrene, etc.)   within  reach 

of  children as  such materials  are  potential  sources  of  danger.

  4)  Store these instructions for  future reference.
  5)  This product was designed and built strictly for the use indicated in this 

documentation. Any other use, not expressly indicated here, could 

compromise the good condition/operation of the product and/or be 

a source of danger.

  6)  FAAC declines all liability caused by improper use or use other than 

that for which the automated system was intended.

  7)  Do not install the equipment in an explosive atmosphere: the presence 

of  inflammable gas or fumes is a serious danger to safety.

  8)  The mechanical parts must conform to the provisions of Standards EN 

12604 and EN 12605.

    For non-EU countries, to obtain an adequate level of safety, the 

Standards mentioned above must be observed, in addition to national 

legal regulations.

  9)  FAAC is not responsible for failure to observe Good Technique in 

the construction of the closing elements to be motorised, or for any 

deformation that may occur during use.

 10)  The installation must conform to Standards EN 12453 and EN 12445.

     For non-EU countries, to obtain an adequate level of safety, the 

Standards mentioned above must be observed, in addition to national 

legal regulations.

 11)  Before attempting any job on the system, cut out electrical power .
 12)  The mains power  supply of the automated system must be fitted with 

an all-pole  switch with contact opening distance of 3mm or greater. Use 

of a 6A thermal breaker with all-pole circuit break is recommended.

 13)  Make sure that a differential switch with threshold of 0.03 A is fitted 

upstream of the system.

 14)  Make sure that the earthing system is perfectly constructed, and connect 

metal parts of  the means of  the closure to it. 

 15)  The automated system is supplied with an intrinsic anti-crushing safety 

device consisting of a torque control. Nevertheless, its tripping threshold 

must be checked as specified in the Standards indicated at point 10.

 16)  The safety devices (EN 12978 standard)  protect any danger areas 

against 

mechanical movement Risks

, such as crushing, dragging, and 

shearing.

 17)  Use of at least one indicator-light (e.g. FAACLIGHT ) is recommended 

for every system, as well as a warning sign adequately secured to the 

frame structure, in addition to the devices mentioned at point “16”.

 18)  FAAC declines all liability as concerns safety and efficient operation of 

the automated system, if system components not produced by FAAC 

are used.

19)   For maintenance, strictly use original parts by FAAC.
20)   Do not in any way modify the components of the automated system.
 21)  The installer shall supply all information concerning manual operation 

of the system in case of an emergency, and shall hand over to the user 

the warnings handbook supplied with the product.

 22)  Do not allow children or adults to stay near the product while it is 

operating.

 23)  Keep remote controls or other pulse generators away from children, to 

prevent the automated system from being activated involuntarily.

 24) 

Transit is permitted only when the automated system is idle.

 25)  The user must not attempt any kind of repair or direct action whatever 

and contact qualified personnel only.

 26)  Maintenance: check at least every 6 months the efficiency of the 

system, particularly the efficiency of the safety devices (including, where 

foreseen, the operator thrust force) and of the release devices.

 27)  Anything not expressly specified in these instructions is not permitted.
