2.1 Intended use

The sliding door system is used for the automatic opening and closing of a building passage. The sliding door system may only be used in a vertical installation position and in dry rooms within the permitted application area. The sliding door system is designed for pedestrian traffic in buildings.

The sliding door system is not designed for the following uses:

• for industrial use
• for area of application which do not serve pedestrian traffic (such as garage doors)
• on mobile objects such as ships

The sliding door system may only be used:

• in the modes of operation provided for by GEZE
• with the components approved / released by GEZE
• with the software delivered by GEZE
• in the installation variants / types of installation documented by GEZE
• within the tested/approved area of application (climate / temperature / IP rating)

Any other use is considered non-intended and will lead to the exclusion of all liability and warranty claims to GEZE.

2.2 Safety instructions

• Intervention and modifications which influence the safety technology and functionality of the sliding door system may only be carried out by GEZE.
• Problem-free and safe operation assumes proper transportation, proper set-up and installation, qualified operation and correct maintenance have taken place.
• The relevant accident prevention regulations and other generally recognised safety-related or health & safety rules must be kept.
• Only original accessories, original spare parts and accessories approved by GEZE guarantee problem-free function of the sliding door system.
• The mandatory installation, maintenance and repair work must be performed by properly trained personnel authorised by GEZE.
• The country-specific laws and regulations are to be observed during safety-related tests.
• If unauthorised changes are made to the system, GEZE cannot be held liable in any way whatsoever for any resulting damage, and the statement of approval for use in escape and rescue routes is no longer valid.
• GEZE does not accept any warranty for combinations with third-party products.
• Only original GEZE parts may be used for repair and maintenance work.
• Connection to the mains voltage must be completed by an electrician or specialist electrician. Perform the power connection and protective earth connection test in accordance with VDE 0100 Part 600.
• Use an on-site 10-A overload cut-out as the line-side disconnecting device.
• Protect the display programme switch against unauthorised access.
• In compliance with Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, a risk analysis must be performed and the door system identified in accordance with CE Marking Directive 93/68/EEC before the door system is commissioned.
• Observe the latest versions of guidelines, standards and country-specific regulations, in particular:
  • DIN 18650: “Building hardware – Powered automatic doors”
  • VDE 0100, Part 600: “Installation of low-voltage systems”
  • EN 16005: “Power operated pedestrian doorsets – Safety in use– Requirements and test methods”
  • EN 60335-1: “Household and similar electrical appliances - Safety Part 1: General requirements”
  • EN 60335-2-103: “Household and similar electrical appliances - Safety: Special requirements for drives for gates, doors and windows”
• Use a relevant regulation to select suitable mounting materials, such as the guidelines for planning assembly of windows and entrance doors for new constructions and renovations of RAL-Gütergemeinschaft Fenster und Haustüren e.V.
• Do not loosen screw-fitted, electrical ground connections.
• The product should be installed or incorporated in such a way that effortless access to the product is guaranteed during any repairs and/or maintenance, and that any removal costs do not stand out of economic proportion to the value of the product.

2.3 Safety-conscious working

• Secure workplace against unauthorised entry.
• Watch the swivelling range of long system parts.
• Never carry out work with a high safety risk (e.g. installing the drive, cover or door leaf) while alone.
• Secure the cover/drive panels against falling.
• Secure non-fixed components to prevent them falling.
• Use only the cables specified on the cable plan provided. Cables must be shielded in compliance with the wiring diagram.
• Secure loose, internal drive cables with cable ties.
• Before working on the electrical system:
  • Disconnect the drive from the 230 V mains and secure it against being switched back on again. Check isolation from power supply.
  • Disconnect the control unit from the 24 V rechargeable battery.
  • Note that if an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is used, the system will still be supplied with voltage despite the fact that the power supply is disconnected.
• Always use insulated wire-end ferrules for wire cores.
• Make sure of sufficient lighting.
• Use safety glass.
• Attach safety stickers to glass door leaves.

2.4 Environmentally conscious working

• When disposing of the door system, separate the different materials and have them recycled.
• Do not dispose of batteries and rechargeable batteries with household waste.
• Comply with the statutory regulations when disposing of the door system and the batteries/rechargeable batteries.

2.5 Safety instructions related to transportation and storage

• The door system and its parts are not designed for hard impacts or for falls from high areas. Do not throw, do not drop.
• Storage temperatures under –30 °C and above +60 °C can result in damage to the device.
• Protect against humidity.
• Use special glass transport devices (e.g. A-frames) for transporting glass.
• Separate several panes on a frame or during storage using intermediate layers (e.g. cork pads, paper or plastic cords).
• Always store glass in a vertical position on level and load-bearing ground. Use suitable material as a support (e.g. wooden slats).
• In the case of insulated glass, make sure that it is placed flush across the entire element thickness on at least 2 supports.
• During storage and support, safety devices must not cause any damage to the glass or edge seal of insulated glass and must be attached flat on the pane surface.
• Dry, well ventilated, closed, weather-proof and UV-protected rooms are suitable as storage areas.

2.6 Qualification

Observe country-specific regulations! Applicable in Germany: Companies that handle the pre-mounting of sliding door drives for escape routes must be licensed by the testing institution that issued the type approval certificate as an expanded production facility.
