Safety instructions
Operation during storms:
During strong winds close the windows
or raise the sunblind to the upper end
position. Take care, that no draught can
arise, even during your absence. If the
window is open, the closed sunblinds
cannot withstand all wind loads. The

Interesting facts about awning covers
Awning covers may show the
below mentioned
characteristics. These do not
affect the proper use or
lifespan of the product.
Kink folds
These stripes may arise due to a kinking of
the cover when cutting, sewing or folding it.
Crayon effect
The impregnating agent used during the
production may cause light stripes in the
cover. Especially with dark-coloured covers
these light stripes cannot be avoided, despite
correct handling.
Ripples
When rolling-up or unrolling the cover on the
shaft the cover is more tensioned in the area
of the hems, seams and panels than between
the seams. Tensionings of the cover resulting
therefrom may cause ripples (e.g. waffle-
weave pattern or herringbone pattern), which
leave marks in the cover. These ripples are
visible when the unit is extended.
Especially with side seam guided units, these
ripples in the marginal area are a result of the
manufacturing process and cannot be
avoided, because the cover and the zip-
fastener are lying on top of each other and
cover a different distance when the cover is
rolled-up or unrolled.

Interesting facts about awning covers
Formation of honeycomb structures
The formation of honeycomb structures is an
effect of the manufacturing process of the
cover and can not be avoided. Rain or
increased air humidity may intensify this
effect. Especially when the cover is retracted
in a wet condition, these honeycomb
structures leave clearly visible marks in the
cover.
Flaws in weaving
During the manufacturing process of the
cover it may happen that the threads tear or
that the thread thickness varies slightly. This
results in light points or knobs in the cover.

found in the documents

assessment of ready-made
awning covers" and

maintenance of awning
covers" of the Industrial

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.
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.
For cleaning of the cover, it is usually sufficient to occasionally brush it
down using a soft brush or a duster.
Hard water leaves traces of limescale. Adding a little bit of vinegar to the
scouring water prevents this effect.
You will get suitable cleansing agents for heavier dirtied blinds from your
HELLA specialty retailer.

Servicing, maintenance and repair
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.
Maintenance:
All inspection and maintenance works must be carried out
by a specialised company from HELLA or a HELLA partner.
Regularly check the electrical wires of motor driven units for
damage. Check the
mechanical parts of your unit for visible
damage. After exceptional events such as storm, hail, sleet,
maloperation or the like, the unit must be checked for
noticeable damage prior to operating it. If the unit is
damaged, it must not be used; consult auth
orized specialist
staff immediately. It is recommended to have the unit
maintained by specialist staff on an annual basis. This way
wear is detected at an early stage and damage to the unit is
prevented.

Operating guidelines
Motor drive:
By operating a switch, a hand-held radio
transmitter or an automatic device, the cover
moves up or down.
The cover stops by releasing a touch contact
switch or - if a locking push-button is used - by
pushing the counter or stop button.
The end positions of the drive are not adjusted
ex works.
Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the end
positions during the installation on site.
Please observe the enclosed instructions of
the manufacturer of the motor.
Automatic control devices may fail under
extreme conditions (e.g. power failure or
technical faults).
Automatic control devices should be set to
manual operation during your absence.
Adjust the external control device in such a
way, that a non-stop operation of the motor is
avoided!
Thermal protection:
The drives used are not suitable for a non-stop
operation. The integrated thermal protection
switches the drive off after approx. 4 minutes.
After approx. 10 to 15 minutes, the drive is
ready for use again.
Please avoid to roll up the cover opposite to
the intended direction (see adjacent
illustration).
This may cause damage to the cover.

during the installation on
site.
Check which motor you
have. (Somfy, elero).
Motors with electronic limit
stops:
With these drives, the setting
of the end position is done
via a setting cable.
Radio motors:
With these drives the setting
of the end position is done
via the corresponding
transmitter.
The lower switch-off point
should be approx. 20 mm
above the bottom end of the
guide rails.
When the upper end position
is reached (glider of the front
rail is positioned against the
cover unwinding profile), the
torque increases and the
motor switches off.
Note: To protect the cover,
the final load function of the
drive must be activated for
the upper end position!
Information about the correct
procedure to adjust the end
positions is given in the
enclosed adjustment guide
lines for the motor.

Activation guidelines for electric drives
The motors we use are drives with integrated planetary gear, brakes, limit
stops at the top and at the bottom, and thermo cut-off switches, also not
only a motor, but a complete drive system.
In some respect, the drives do NOT correspond to other household
electrical consumers. Please strictly observe the following notes and safety
instructions.
The construction, checking, commissioning and error-correcting of the
electrical system are only allowed to be carried out by an electrician (acc. to
VDE 0100). In case of improper connection, considerable danger can arise
for the user.
-Follow the wiring diagram precisely!
- We cannot accept responsibility for damage, that can result from
improper installation.
- Never simultaneously activate the drives with an UPWARDS and a
DOWNWARDS signal!
-Keep a break of approx. 0.5 seconds between the UPWARDS and
the DOWNWARDS command (is often neglected with Instabus EIB-
systems).
Radio interference suppression
The drives are provided with a radio interference suppression according to
the current VDE standards and EC Guidelines. If the drives are operated
with other devices, that include interferences, it is the fitter's duty - as part of
the obligation to suppress interference - to ensure that the entire unit
complies with the current regulations.
Operation in wet spaces
The drives are "splash-proof"; if they are operated in wet spaces, the VDE-
guidelines, inter alia VDE 0100/Parts 701, 702, the guidelines of the local
electric supply companies and of the TÜV must be observed and fulfilled.
Both the instructions and notes given in these instructions, as well as
the instructions and notes given in the respective enclosed
instructions of the manufacturers of the drive systems must be
observed.

Directions for radio motors:
For elero radio-controlled tube motors, the connections no. 2 (black) and no. 3 (brown)
must be connected in the junction box (bridge) by the customer.
View: Connection of elero radio-controlled tube motor with Hirschmann plug connection
with bridge in the junction box
For Somfy radio-controlled tube motors (radio system RTS and io) a 3-pin supply line is
sufficient (connection 3 not assigned).
Note:
Some motors are operating resources of the protection class II (protective insulation – a
protective conductor is not required).
Therefore, the motor cable of this motor type is not provided with a protective conductor
connection (PE – yellow/green).

A
ctivation of a drive
It must be ensured, that a
drive is provided with a
locking mechanism, so that it
can be activated in one
running direction only (see
adjacent illustration).
Otherwise, there is the risk
that enormous loads occur,
that the limit stops get
destroyed and that the drive
malfunctions.
This regulation does not
apply for radio-controlled
and electronic drives.

Connection directives for motor drive
Parallel connection of two or more drives
The drives of a commonly
controlled unit never have
precise running times!
Therefore, if several drives
are to be commonly
operated with one switch, a
separate contact should be
provided for every drive and
every running direction
(galvanic isolation of the
drives). Please see also to
the adjacent illustration.
Jointly controlling several
drives requires control
and/or automatic equipment.
Otherwise, there is the risk
that enormous loads occur,
that the limit switches get
destroyed and that the drive
malfunctions.
With several switches,
provide one-step or multi-
point control relays. When
controlling several drives,
use control equipment with
an interacting locking of
commands.
This regulation does not
apply for radio-controlled
and electronic drives.
