Servicing, maintenance and repair
An unintentional switching on of units with motor drive is possible. Make
sure that the automatic control device is switched off and that the current
supply is interrupted during cleaning or maintenance work. If the unit is
operated manually, the operating crank handle must be unhooked and
kept in a safe place.
Cleaning
As a sun protection device fixed outside, the unit can get dirty in the
course of time. This will not reduce the usability of your unit. The powder-
coated parts of your unit will remain presentable for longer, if they are
cleaned regularly with a soft woollen cloth.
Do not use solvents, alcohol (rubbing alcohol) or scouring cleansing
agents! Use a mild household cleaner and a soft cloth to wash down
fingerprints and light grease- or oil patches. Rinse off with clear water
and dry with a soft cloth.
Never use a high-pressure cleaner. There is a risk that the surface of the
aluminium parts and the cover are affected by the pressure and the heat.
Remove regularly dirt or objects
- from the guide rails of the TERRA SIDE,
- from the rain gutter and the water entry openings facing towards the
column,
- from the water discharge openings at the bottom of the column,
