Introduction
> Important information
This product is a motor for vertically opening garage doors, for residential use.
To ensure compliance with the standard EN 60335-2-95, this product must be installed with a Somfy receiver for roller garage doors designed for residential use, opening and closing vertically, and a Somfy safety edge solution. The assembly is designated as a “motorization”. The main purpose of these instructions is to satisfy the requirements of the aforementioned standard and to ensure the safety of equipment and persons.
WARNING
Any use of this product outside the field of application described in these instructions is prohibited (see “Field of application” paragraph in the installation manual). Such use, and any failure to comply with the instructions given in this guide, absolves Somfy of any liability and invalidates the warranty. The use of any safety accessories not validated by Somfy is prohibited.

Preliminary checks
> Installation environment
ATTENTION
Do not spray water onto the motorisation.
Do not install the motorisation in an explosive atmosphere. The motorisation
must be installed in a location protected from bad weather.
Check that the temperature range marked on the motorisation is suited to the
installation location.
> Condition of the door to be motorised
Before installing the motorisation, check that:
- the door is in good mechanical condition
- it can be opened and closed properly,
- the door mountings are in good condition.
> Cable feed
If the motor is to be used outdoors, the PVC power supply cable [WF, 60227 (IEC)] must be installed in a duct (under a tray).
Safety instructions relating to installation
WARNING
Before installing the motorisation, remove any unnecessary cords or chains and deactivate any locking device (bolt) which is not required for motorised operation.
DANGER
A fall protection device must be installed to ensure personal safety and prevent damage to equipment if one of the connection components between the transmission and the door shaft accidentally ruptures. Use a fall protection device referenced in the documentation available from your Somfy adviser.
WARNING
Modifying one of the elements provided in this kit or using an additional element not recommended in this manual is strictly prohibited.
Do not use adhesive to secure the motorisation. Install the operating element
less than 1.80 m from the ground.
As the mobile component of the repair device is removable, it is recommended
to store it in the immediate vicinity of the door.
Fasten the label concerning crushing and the manual override mechanism close
to the operating element in a highly visible location or close to any fixed
control devices. After installation, check that the manual override mechanism
works correctly.
> Clothing precautions
Take off any jewellery (bracelet, chain, etc.) during installation.
For manoeuvring, drilling and welding operations, wear appropriate protection
( special glasses, gloves, ear protection, etc.).
