Instructions And Warnings For Users Of The Tub3500 Gear Motor - Nice Tub Instructions Et Recommandations Pour L'installateur

Instructions and warnings for users of the TUB3500 gear motor

Congratulations on choosing a Nice product for your
automation system!
Nice S.p.A. produces components for automating gates,
doors, shutters and awnings: gear motors, control units,
radio control units, flashing lights, photocells and acces-
sories.
Nice only uses first rate materials and production process-
es and constantly develops innovative technical, aesthetic
and ergonomic solutions in order to make its products as
simple to use as possible: your fitter will certainly have
chosen the most suitable article for your requirements
from the large range of Nice products. Nice however, is
not the producer of your automated system as this is the
result of a process of analysis, evaluation, choice of mate-
rials and installation performed by your fitter.
Each automated system is unique and only your fitter has
the experience and professionalism required to create a
system that is tailor-made to your requirements, featuring
long-term safety and reliability, and, above all, profession-
ally installed and compliant with current regulations.
An automated system is handy to have as well as being a
valid security system. Just a few, simple operations are
required to ensure it lasts for years.
Even if your automated system satisfies regulatory safety
levels, this does not eliminate "residue risks", that is, the
possibility of dangerous situations being generated, usual-
ly due to irresponsible or incorrect use. For this reason we
would like to give you some suggestions on how to avoid
these risks:
• Before using your automated system for the first
time, ask your fitter to explain how residue risks can
arise and spend a few minutes reading the instruc-
tions and warnings for the user handbook that the
fitter will have given you. Keep this manual for future use
and, if you should ever sell your automated system,
hand it over to the new owner.
•Your automated system is a machine which car-
ries out your commands to the letter; irresponsi-
ble or incorrect use may cause it to become dangerous:
do not move the automated system if animals or objects
are in its working radius.
•Children: an automated system ensures a high level of
safety as it always offers reliable and safe operation and
its detection systems stop it from moving in the pres-
ence of people or objects. However, children should not
be allowed to play near it. Do not let them accidentally
use the system by leaving the remote control unit within
their reach: it is not a toy!
•Faults. If you notice any abnormal behaviour, discon-
nect the system from the electricity supply immediately
and perform the manual release operation. Do not
attempt to make repairs yourself but call in your fitter: in
the meantime the system can work as a non-automated
gate once the gear motor has been released as
described further on.
• Maintenance. Just like all machines, your automated
system requires periodic maintenance to ensure it works
as long as possible and in total safety. Agree on a rou-
tine maintenance plan with your fitter; Nice recommends
a visit once every six months for normal residential use
but this period can vary depending on how often the
system is used. All controls, maintenance work or
repairs may only be carried out by qualified personnel.
• Do not modify the system or its programming and
adjustment parameters even if you think you can do it:
your fitter is responsible for this.
• Final testing, routine maintenance and any repairs must
be documented by the fitter and such documents kept
by the owner of the system.
• Disposal. At the end of the life of the automatic sys-
tem, make sure that it is demolished by qualified per-
sonnel and that the materials are recycled or disposed
of according to local regulations.
• In case of breakage or during a power failure. While
waiting for your fitter to call (or power to come on again
if the system does not have buffer batteries), the system
can be used just like any other manual opening system.
To do this, perform the manual release operation: this
can be done by the user and Nice has made it as easy
as possible, without the need for tools or physical effort.
