MANDATORY SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For Glydea™ actuators intended for fabric curtain tracks installed horizontally, and for indoor use only
Any use outside the scope of application specified by SOMFY is non-compliant. SOMFY cannot be held liable for any such use or failure
to observe these instructions, which will also result in warranty being voided. Should any doubt arise during installation of the motor or
in order to obtain additional information, please visit the www.Somfy.com website or refer to your SOMFY contact (see branch details
printed on this document).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION
WARNING: improper installation may result in serious injury. Follow the installation instructions in full, as well as those shown in the
enclosed user leaflet.
To be handed to the user.
The motor must be installed by an installer who is qualified in motorized systems and domestic automation.
The installer must inform the user of the need to arrange maintenance for the motorized unit and its associated accessories. He must
specify items that require maintenance, replacement or checking. The torque, operating time and speed of the SOMFY actuator must be
compatible with the specifications of the motorized unit: your SOMFY contact will provide a method of selecting motors for each
application.
-Use only accessories (Curtain track, brackets, etc.) listed by SOMFY to fit to a unit. Part numbers for accessories are available from
your SOMFY contact.
-Please refer to the SOMFY literature to ascertain the control points) compatible with the actuator selected.
-In areas subject to frequent power cuts it will be necessary to install an emergency facility or backup power supply.
-Fit control devices in visible positions.
-A multi-pole switching device must be provided further up the power supply, i.e. a device which electrically isolates each active
conductor simultaneously (minimum contact opening gap: 3.5 mm).
-Protect cables routed through a wall with an insulated cable bushing.
-If the cable or the power supply connector is damaged, return the actuator to the service department to avoid any risk.
-Secure the cables to prevent any contact with moving parts.
-Leave the power supply cable to the actuator accessible: it must be easily replaceable.
-To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment must have a proper grounding. Some Motors versions are supplied with a
grounding type plug, that has a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding type outlet. If the plug does not fit into the
outlet, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
- A Motorized curtain track installation, equipped with two Glydea 60e motors, will be deemed safe if at least one of the following
conditions is met (EN 13659 and EN 60 335-2-97)
-The motorized curtain track is controlled by a control point without locking, installed within sight of the closing but away from moving
parts and at a height of at least 1.50 m.
-The crush zone is located at a height in excess of 2.50 m from the ground or any permanent access level.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: it is important for everyone’s safety to follow these instructions in full.
Keep these instructions for future reference.
-Your installer should inform you of any maintenance required.
-SOMFY recommends the presence of at least one control point close to the motorized unit or group of motorized units.
-Do not allow children to play with fixed control devices. Keep remote controls out of the reach of children.
-Do not use the emergency facility unless there is a mains power cut.
-Keep a watch on the motorized unit while it is moving and ensure that people stay clear until the motorized unit is fully closed.
-Disconnect the actuator from the power supply while maintenance work (e.g. window cleaning) is in progress in the vicinity.
-Check the system frequently in order to detect any out-of-balance condition or signs of wear. Do not use the motorized unit if it needs
repair or adjustment.
-This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.
-Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
