1.3 Preliminary checks
> Installation environment
ATTENTION
Do not spray water onto the motorisation.
Do not install the motorisation in an explosive environment.
Check that the temperature range marked on the drive is
suited to the installation location.
> Condition of the door to be motorised
Before installing the motorisation, check that:
- the door is in good mechanical condition
- the door is correctly balanced
- the structures of the garage (walls, lintel, partitions, ceiling,
etc.) enable the drive to be fixed securely. Strengthen
these if necessary.
- the door can be correctly opened and closed manually
using a force of less than 150 N.
CAUTION: It is dangerous to perform any operation on the
door springs (the door may fall).
> Specifications of the door to be motorised
Make sure the parts of the door do not encroach onto the
pavement or public thoroughfare.
If the garage door is fitted with a wicket door, the door
must be equipped with a system that prevents it from
moving when the wicket door is not in the safety position.

1.4 Electrical installation
The installation of the power supply must comply with the
standards in force in the country in which the motorisation
is installed, and must be carried out by qualified personnel.
The electric line must be exclusively reserved for the
motorisation and equipped with protection, comprising:
- a 10 A fuse or breaker,
- a differential type device (30 mA).
An all-pole supply cut-off device must be provided.
It is recommended that you fit a lightning conductor
(maximum residual voltage 2 kV).
> Cable feed
Underground cables must be equipped with a protective
sheath with a sufficient diameter to contain the motor cable
and the accessories cables.
For overground cables, use a cable grommet that will
withstand the weight of vehicles.
1.5 Safety instructions relating to installation
WARNING
Before installing the motorisation, remove any unnecessary
cords or chains and deactivate any locking device (bolt)
which is not required for motorised operation.
Do not connect the motorisation to a power source (mains,
battery or solar) before installation is complete.
WARNING
Ensure that any danger zones (crushing, cutting, trapping)
between the driven part and the surrounding fixed
elements caused by the opening movement of the driven
part are avoided or indicated on the installation (see the
section "Danger zones").
Permanently affix the crushing warning labels near to any
fixed control devices, and so that they are extremely visible
to the end-user.
WARNING
Modifying one of the elements provided in this kit or using
an additional element not recommended in this manual is
strictly prohibited.
Monitor the door as it moves and keep people away from it
until installation is complete.
Do not use adhesive to secure the motorisation.
Install the internal manual back release device at a height
of less than 1.8 m.
