Programmable max. opening
The maximum opening position of the tailgate can be adjusted, e.g. to suit a low ceiling height in a garage.
Note
- If the system has been operating continuously for a long time, it is switched off to avoid overload. It can be used again after about 2 minutes.
Pinch protection
If something with sufficient resistance prevents the tailgate from opening/closing then the pinch protection is activated.
- During opening - movement is interrupted, the tailgate stops and a long acoustic signal sounds.
- During closing - movement is interrupted, the tailgate stops, a long acoustic signal sounds and the tailgate returns to the programmed max. position.
Warning
Observe the risk of trapping when opening/closing. Before starting opening/closing, check that there is nobody near to the tailgate as trapping may have serious consequences.
Always operate the tailgate with caution.
