Please read and observe the safety instructions contained in this section. CAUTION Product and property damage Risk of damage to the product and property due to improper use of the sun protection system. Please read and observe the safety instructions contained in this section. Operation It must be assured that no children or people unable to properly assess the risks of improper or incorrect use should be able to operate the sun protection system. Remote controls must be kept out of reach of children. The setting and operating instructions supplied separately by the manufacturer of the motor, switches and controls must also be observed. Use in winds The sun protection system complies with the requirements of the wind resistance class shown on the CE declaration of conformity printed in the instructions for assembly. The sun protection system may only be used up to the wind resistance class specified by the company assembling the awning. This may deviate from the wind resistance class stated by the manufacturer. If a Sottezza II is used under a roof which is open at the front and the sides, it must therefore be retracted immediately in the event of strong winds (above wind strength 5).

The sun protection system must not be used in windy conditions. The sun protection system may only remain open until winds have reached wind strength 4. Definition acc. to the Beaufort scale: light breeze, light wind Wind moves small tree branches and twigs, lifts dust and loose paper Wind speed 20-27 km/h = 5.5-7.4 m/s Wind resistance class 2 The sun protection system may only remain open until winds have reached wind strength 5. Definition acc. to the Beaufort scale: fresh breeze, fresh wind Small trees in leaf begin to sway, whitecaps form at sea Wind speed 28-37 km/h = 7.5-10.4 m/s Wind resistance class 3 The sun protection system may only remain open until winds have reached wind strength 6. Definition acc. to Beaufort scale: strong breeze Larger tree branches move, umbrellas are hard to hold, telegraph lines whistle in the wind Wind speed 38-48 km/h = 10.5-13.4 m/s Source: German Met Office (DWD) - Offenbach Sottezza II Stretch/ LED / Sottezza II OptiStretch/ LED Maintenance Instructions and Directions for Use We reserve the right to make technical changes Version 4 Item number 2020-05-06 118074-0000 Page 5/13 Use in rain, snow and ice The sun protection system should be retracted in the event of rain, storms and snow if the function is impaired due to the location or the panel mounting. The sun protection system must also not be opened in snowfalls or when there is a risk of frost. There is a risk that the sun protection system could be damaged. The automatic controls must be switched off if there is a risk of frost. Obstacles The space needed for the sun protection system to open must always be kept clear. There is a risk of people being crushed in this space. Automatic system control A sun protection system must never be left unattended when open. The automatic system control may fail under extreme conditions (e.g. power failures, defects, sudden storms). There is a risk that the sun protection system could be damaged or crash down. Our recommendation: If you vacate the area, switch the sun protection system from automatic to manual control and leave it retracted. If there is a risk of frost, the awning system must be switched from automatic to manual control to prevent it from moving automatically. The system must not be used in frosty conditions or if there is a risk of frost. If your Sottezza II is fitted with a sun or wind sensor, the controls will switch to automatic control after a power failure. Awning systems that had previously been set to manual operation will therefore run automatically after a power failure. Operation in the event of a power failure A motorised sun protection system cannot retract if there is no power. The system must not be used in frosty conditions or if there is a risk of frost. Sottezza II Stretch/ LED / Sottezza II OptiStretch/ LED Maintenance Instructions and Directions for Use We reserve the right to make technical changes Version 4 Item number 2020-05-06 118074-0000 Page 6/13 Checking and monitoring the sun protection system For personal safety, it is important that these safety instructions are complied with and kept in a safe place. • The performance of a product depends on how it is assembled and installed. • Check the awning system for signs of wear or damage. • On motorised systems, check the electrical leads for damage. • Do not use units that are in need of repair. • Monitor the sun protection system when it opens and retracts and keep people clear of the area until the system has fully opened or retracted. • The installation work may only be performed by trained personnel. Guidelines for systems with automatic controls • Disconnect the sun protection system from the power supply before performing maintenance or installation work. 2.2 General note on the tension rope The tension rope used on the clamping system begins to wind around a rope drum located inside the cassette as soon as you open the sun protection system. The width of the rope drum is enough to take several wound lengths of tension rope lying side by side. Once there is no more space to the side, the next coil will wind over the one before. The tension rope may then become instable and slip to one side. In this case, you will hear a crack. This will not damage the sun protection system. The more you open the sun protection system, the more the clamping system will tension the fabric. And the more tension there is in the tension rope, the louder the crack that will be heard. 2.3 Intended use The Sottezza II is designed to open in order to protect exposed areas from undesired sun. Failure to use the product as intended may result in severe danger. Alterations not envisaged by weinor, such as attaching items or conversions, may only be carried out with the manufacturer's written consent. Additional loads on the sun protection system caused by hanging objects from it or by anchoring ropes may result in damage or cause the system to fall and are therefore not permissible. 2.4 Improper use Only use original spare parts on the sun protection system. Only use the sun protection system as a sunscreen. Never affix/hang heavy articles to/from the sun protection system. Never open the sun protection system or allow it to be opened in winds stronger than wind category 2.

The Sottezza II is not suitable for unprotected exterior areas. The system is designed in such a way that the fabric is always taut. This also makes it possible to open the system in the case of slight pitches. The Sottezza II with LED has integrated LED spotlights inside the cassette to create welcoming outdoor lighting. The Sottezza II can be used with roof pitches of 5° – 45°, whereby the cassette is at the top and the system extends downwards. For larger cross sections and dimensions, the Sottezza Stretch will be equipped with adjustable distance ropes. Only high-quality, rust-free materials are used in the Sottezza II. The profiles are made of extruded aluminium; the headplate / side channel brackets and the cast parts are made of aluminium. All connecting parts, such as screws, are made of stainless steel.

Disconnect the sun protection systems from the power supply (e.g. by disconnecting the fuse) before doing any cleaning work. If sun protection systems are operated by several users, a priority locking device must be activated (controlled interruption of the power supply from outside), making it impossible to open or retract the system at all. 4.1 Removing foliage and foreign bodies Foliage and other foreign bodies lying on the fabric, in the side channel, on the carriages, in the end caps and in the cassette must be removed immediately. There is a risk that the sun protection system could be damaged or crash down. 4.2 Cleaning the powder-coated aluminium parts In saltwater areas CAUTION Damage to the product Particularly in saltwater areas, there is a possibility that salt may disperse or accumulate on the product. Wash off any salt deposits at regular intervals or as required, but no less than twice a year. Recommendation: Call in a specialist company to do the work for you. This is a good way to protect the aluminium parts and their surface from being corroded by salty water. In non-saltwater areas Clean the aluminium parts at least once a year, and even more often if heavily soiled. To clean, use clean water and add a few drops of pH-neutral or very slightly alkaline detergent.

Observe the maintenance requirements and maintenance intervals. Inspect the sun protection system at regular intervals for signs of wear and tear or damage to the awning material and frame. Check the sun protection system at regular intervals for signs of damage to the leads. Do not use systems in need of repair. Ensure people keep clear of any dangerous areas. Should you detect any damage, contact a specialist retailer or a suitable service company to carry out the repairs. Carry out the following maintenance and care tasks as required, once every spring, or whenever the awning has not been in use for a long time. Performing these tasks will extend the operating life of your awning system. Our recommendation: Call in a specialist company to carry out the necessary maintenance and care work.
