WARNING!

START BY READING THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Failure to comply with the following instructions may result in serious personal injury or property damage.

• Read and follow all instructions carefully.

• The garage door opener is designed and tested to offer safe service, provided it is installed and operated in strict accordance with the instructions in this manual.

These safety alert symbols mean WARNING : A possible risk to personal safety or property damage exists.

Keep garage door balanced. Do not let the garage door opener compensate for a binding or sticking garage door.

Sticking, binding or unbalanced doors must be repaired before installing this opener.

Do not wear rings, watches or loose clothing while installing or servicing a garage door opener. Wear gloves, safety goggles and suitable protective clothing where appropriate.

The Protector System TM must be used for all installations where the closing force as measured on the bottom of the

door is over 400 N (40 kgf). Excessive force will interfere with the proper operation of the Safety Reverse System or damage the garage door.

S

PECIAL NOTE: Merlin strongly recommends that The

Protector System TM be installed on all garage door openers.

Frequently examine the door installation, in particular cable, springs and mountings for signs of wear, damage or imbalance. Do not use if repair or adjustment is needed since springs and hardware are under extreme tension and a fault can cause serious personal injury.

To avoid serious personal injury from entanglement, remove all ropes, chains and locks connected to the

garage door before installing the door opener.

Installation and wiring must be in compliance with your local building and electrical codes.

After installation, ensure that the parts of the door do not extend over public footpaths or roads.

Install the wireless wall control (or any additional wall control) in a location where the garage door is visible, at a height of at least 1.5 m and out of the reach of children. Do not allow

children to operate push button(s) or transmitter(s). Serious personal injury from a closing garage door may result from misuse of the opener.

Permanently fasten the Warning Labels in Prominent Places, adjacent to Wall Controls and on manual release mechanism as a reminder of safe operating procedures.

The safety reverse system test is very important. Your garage door MUST reverse on contact with a 40 mm obstacle placed on the floor. Failure to properly adjust the opener may result in serious personal injury from a closing garage door. Repeat the test once a month and make any necessary adjustments.

Activate opener only when the door is in full view, free of obstructions and the opener is properly adjusted. No one should enter or leave the garage while the door is in motion.

Automatic Door- The door may operate unexpectedly, therefore do not allow anything to stay in the path of the door.

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.

Do not allow children to play near the door, or with door controls. Keep remotes away from children.

Disconnect electric power to the garage door opener before making repairs or removing covers.

Use the Manual Release only for the seperation of the carriage from the drive and - if possible - ONLY with the door closed. Do not use the red handle to push the door up or pull it down. Operation of the emergency release can lead to uncontrolled movements of the door, if springs are weak or broken or if the door is unbalanced. Mount the release handle of the emergency release at a height less than 1.8 m from the floor.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid hazard.

This opener should not be installed in a damp or wet space exposed to weather.

To avoid damage to very light doors (such as fibreglass, aluminium or steel doors), an appropriate reinforcement should be added. To do so, contact the door manufacturer.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Warning: If your garage has no service entrance door, a E1702M outside quick release must be installed. This accessory allows manual operation of the garage door from outside in case of power failure.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN:

1. Look at the wall and ceiling above the garage door. (The opener and header bracket must be securely fastened to structural supports.)

2. Do you have a finished ceiling in your garage? If so, a support bracket and additional fastening hardware (not supplied) may be required.

3. Do you have an access door in addition to the garage door? If not, model E1702M Outside Quick Release Accessory is required. This accessory allows manual operation of the garage door from outside in case of power failure.

4. Complete the following test to make sure your garage door is balanced and is not sticking or binding:

• Lift the door about halfway. Release the door. If balanced, it should stay in place, supported entirely by its springs.

• Raise and lower the door to see if there is any binding or sticking, 20 kgf is the absolute maximum allowable force to raise or lower the door in any position. If your door binds, sticks, or is out of balance, call a trained door technician.

• Opener control panel: UP and DOWN Buttons and Green O.S.C.

• The Outside Keyswitch or Keyless Entry System (if you have installed either of these accessories).

• The Remote Control Transmitter. Hold the push button down until the door starts to move.

2. Opening the Door Manually: Door should be fully closed if possible. Weak or broken springs could allow an open door to fall rapidly. Property damage or serious personal injury could result.

NOTE: For full instructions on how to operate the door manually refer to section 18.

Do not use the manual release handle to pull the door open or closed.

3. When the Opener is Activated by Remote Control:

1. If open, the door will close. If closed, the door will open.

2. If closing, the door will stop.

3. If opening, the door will stop (allowing space for entry and exit of pets and for fresh air).

4. If the door has been stopped in a partially open or closed position, it will reverse direction.

5. If an obstruction is encountered while closing, the door will reverse to the UP limit.

6. If an obstruction is encountered while opening, the door will reverse and stop.

7. The optional Protector System™ uses an invisible beam which, when broken by an obstruction, causes a closing door to open and prevents an open door from closing. It is STRONGLY

RECOMMENDED for homeowners with young children.

4. The opener lights will turn on under the following conditions:

When the opener is initially plugged in; when power is restored after interruption or when the opener is activated.

Lights will turn off automatically after 3 minutes.

The batteries in the remote have an extremely long life.

If the transmission range decreases, the batteries must be replaced. Batteries are not covered by the warranty.

- NEVER allow small children near batteries.

- If battery is swallowed, immediately notify doctor.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

1. Opener doesn't operate from either door control or remote:

• Does the opener have electric power? Plug lamp into outlet. If it doesn't light, check the fuse box or the circuit breaker. (Some outlets are controlled by a wall switch.)

• Have you disengaged all door locks? Review installation instruction warnings on page 1.

• Is there a build-up of ice or snow under door? The door may be frozen to ground. Remove any obstruction.

• The garage door spring may be broken. Have it replaced.

2. Door operates from door control but not from remote:

• Replace batteries in the remote if necessary.

• If you have two or more remotes and only one operates, review Program Your Opener, Remote and Keyless

Entry.

3. Remote has short range:

• Check the battery in the remote is fully charged.

• Change the location of the remote control in the car.

• A metal garage door, foil-backed insulation or metal siding will reduce the transmission range.

4. Door reverses for no apparent reason and opener light flashes 10 times:

• Check The Protector System™ (if you have installed this accessory). If the light is flashing, correct alignment.

If the Protector System TM is installed and needs to be removed, the Opener will need to be reprogrammed as follows:

• Remove the IR Beam wiring from the Opener

• Turn the power OFF for 5 seconds

• Turn the power ON for 5 seconds

• Again turn the power OFF for 5 seconds

• Turn the power back on and test the opener for normal operation.

5. The garage door opens and closes by itself:

• Make sure remote push button is not stuck "on".

• Delete transmitter codes to eliminate possible faulty remotes.

6. Door stops but doesn't close completely:

Repeat Programming the Travel Limits.

Repeat safety reverse test after any adjustment of door arm length, close force or down limit adjustments.

7. Door opens but won't close:

• Check The Protector System™ (if you have installed this accessory). If the light on the Beams are flashing, correct the alignment.

• If opener light does not flash and it is a new installation, repeat Programming the Travel Limits.

Repeat the safety reverse test after the adjustment is complete.

8. Opener strains:

Door may be unbalanced or springs are broken. Close door and use manual release rope and handle to disconnect trolley. Open and close door manually. A properly balanced door will stay in any point of travel while being supported entirely by its springs. If it does not, call for professional garage door service to correct the problem.

9. Opener hums briefly, then won't work:

• Garage door springs are broken. SEE ABOVE.

• If problem occurs on first operation of opener, door is locked. Disable door lock.

Repeat safety reverse test after adjustment is complete.

10. Opener won't activate due to power failure:

• Pull manual release rope and handle down once to disconnect trolley. Door can be opened and closed manually. When the power is restored, the next time the opener is activated, the trolley will re-connect.

• The Outside Quick Release accessory (if fitted) disconnects the trolley from outside the garage in case of power failure.

11. The opener runs, but the carriage does not move:

• Check the carriage is not disengaged from the opener.

Operate the opener to reengage the trolley.

• In a new installation, the preassembled Motor Shaft

Adapter may have fallen out of the chain sprocket assembly. This adapter is installed during the manufacturing process and may have dislodged.
