Congratulations for having chosen a Nice product for
your automation system! Nice S.p.A. produces compo-
nents for the automation of gates, doors, rolling gates, roller
shutters and awnings: gearmotors, control units, radio con-
trols, flashing lights, photocells and miscellaneous acces-
sories. Nice uses only the finest materials and first-class
workmanship. It focuses on the development of innovative
solutions designed to simplify the use of its equipment,
dedicating meticulous care to the study of its technical,
aesthetic and ergonomic characteristics: From the wide
range of Nice products, your installation technician will cer-
tainly have selected the one best suited to your specific
requirements. However, Nice is not the producer of your
automation system, which is rather the result of a combina-
tion of operations carried out by your installation technician,
namely analysis, evaluation, selection of materials and sys-
tem implementation. Each automation system is unique.
Your installation technician is the only person who possess-
es the experience and professionalism needed to set up a
system capable of satisfying your requirements, a system
that is safe, reliable, long lasting and built in accordance
with the regulations in force. An automation system is not
only very convenient; it also improves the level of security in
your home. Moreover, it will last for years with very little
maintenance. Even though the automation system you
posses meets the safety requirements of the legislation in
force, this does not exclude the existence of a "residual
risk", i.e. the possibility that dangers may arise, usually as a
result of improper or unreasonable use. We have prepared
the following list of do's and don'ts to help you avoid any
mishaps:
•Before using your automation system for the first
time, ask the installer to explain the origin of residual
risks; take a few minutes and read the users instruc-
tions manual given you by the in stal ler. 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 fai -
thfully 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 acti-
vation. However, children should not be allowed to play in
the vicinity of automated systems; to prevent any acciden-
tal activations, keep all remote controls away from chil-
dren: they are not toys!
•Malfunctions: If you notice that your automation is not
functioning 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-auto-
matic door after releasing the gearmotor as described
below.
•Maintenance: Like any machine, your automation needs
regular periodic maintenance to ensure its long life and
total safety. Arrange a periodic maintenance schedule with
your installation technician. Nice recommends that main-
tenance checks be carried out every six months for normal
Operation manual
(to be given to the final user)
domestic use, but this interval may very depending on the
intensity of use. Only qualified personnel are authorised to
carry out checks, maintenance operations and repairs.
•Do not modify the system or its programming and adjust-
ment 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.
The only recommended maintenance operations that
the user can perform periodically concern the cleaning of
the photocell glasses and the removal of leaves and
debris that may impede the au to mation. To prevent
anyone from activating the gate release the automation sys-
tem (as described below). Use a slightly damp cloth to
clean.
•Disposal: At the end of its useful life, the automation
must be dismantled by qualified personnel, and the mate-
rials 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 is the only one that
the user of the automation is authorized to perform): This
operation has been carefully designed by Nice to make it
extremely easy, without any need for tools or physical
exertion.
