Proper use and misuse
Proper use
In the case of normally built front and secondary entrance doors
in building construction, door sashes fitted with MACO door
locks are moved by actuating a handle or a cylinder. This moves
the door through its turning position to the inside or outside, or
in a closed or locked position within the door frame.
When closing a sash and locking the hardware, it is usually
necessary to overcome the counterforce of a seal.
WARNING!
Risk of injury and property damage due to improper opening
and closing of sashes!
Improper opening and closing of the sashes can lead to serious
bodily injuries and considerable damage to property!
Therefore:
›It is important to make sure that the sash is guided by hand
through the entire range of motion, at very low speed, and
contacts to the frame without any resistance to the closing
position!
›Make sure that the sash never hits or swings in an uncontrolled
way (e.g. with wind)!
Any use or operation of the products that goes beyond or
deviates from the intended use shall be deemed to be improper
use. This can cause injuries to people or damage to other goods!
WARNING!
DANGER WHEN MISUSED!
Misuse of front or secondary entrance doors can lead to dangerous
situations, such as injury to people and damage to other goods. The
following uses must especially be refrained from (see also safety
instructions):
›The deliberate or uncontrolled slamming or pressing of the sash
against the reveal. This can damage or even destroy the hardware,
frame materials or other individual parts of the doors.
›Putting obstacles in the opening area between the frame and sash!
›The intentional application of or negligence with extra loads acting
on the door sash.
›Closing the sash with high force. The sash must always flow freely
into the frame without any force.

- 4 - - 5 -
ATTENTION!
When any normally obvious or visible damage or malfunction is
noticed, the door must no longer be operated and must be
serviced immediately by a specialist company before any further
use!
iIMPORTANT!
Claims of any kind due to damage caused by improper use or
misuse are excluded!
Usage restriction note:
Closed, unlocked door sashes only have a shielding function. They
do not meet the requirements of:
›Joint tightness
›Sound insulation
›Burglary prevention
›Watertightness
›Thermal protection
These properties can only be attained with locked sashes.

Notes on the operation of French Window sashes (2-sash doors)
Locking and unlocking is done by a lever on the side of the second
sash. The rst sash must be opened before the lever can be reached.
Lever/Sash Position Importance
Closing position of the sash
Turning position of the sash
ATTENTION!
Never force 2-sash doors past the second sash opening!
Misuse
The following illustrations show various misuse operations that
must be prevented!
Misuse Importance
Never close the door with the latch
outside!
The latch would be thereby
damaged, and the door can no
longer be closed!
Never paint the hardware or
components.
Paints and varnishes penetrate the
moving tting parts and prevent
proper functionality!
Keys may only be used with the
hand. Never use any kind of tools
for this!
Bent or broken keys mean that
doors can no longer be locked or
unlocked!
Never operate the handle and
cylinder lock at the same time!
Otherwise, the lock mechanics will
be damaged, and the door can no
longer be locked or unlocked!

- 16 - - 17 -
Misuse Importance
Never use excessive force on the
handle!
Forces above 15 kg on the handle
will damage the handle or the lock
mechanism!
As soon as traces of forced use are
visible, the lock or the handle must
be replaced!
Usage and cleaning instructions
General Instructions for use:
Open doors always represent a danger to the health of people
and to the damage of other things!
WARNING!
Risk of injury when closing doors! If when the door is being closed,
the hand or other body parts come between the sash and the frame,
there is a risk of crushing and thus the risk of injury!
Therefore:
›When closing doors, never grip between the door and the
frame and always be careful.
›Children and people who cannot estimate the danger must
be kept away from the danger point.
›Always close the door immediately when windy or drafty.
Otherwise, the wind or air suction might cause the door to
swing uncontrollably.
If the sash is not closed and locked, damage to the door
itself and to other objects, as well as injury to people may
occur.
›Small parts underneath the door opening range can lead to
damage to the floor covering!
ATTENTION!
Risk of damage due to smaller objects in the opening range of
doors. During opening, these objects can become stuck between
the sash and the oor and thereby cause damage.

- 18 - - 19 -
General Cleaning Instructions:
Regular cleaning is a pre-requisite for maintaining the functionality
of the door. When cleaning the glass, the seals and the surfaces, also
check the hardware parts for any dirt and, if necessary, clean them
with a damp cloth and ph-neutral detergent. The door may only be
closed again aer the cleaned parts have dried.
›Cleaning instructions for glass surfaces:
Commercially available, ammonia-free glass cleaners can be used
to clean glass surfaces. No detergents, acids, uoride-containing
cleaning agents or scouring agents may be used! Stubborn dirt
such as splashes of paint and the like, can be removed with
alcohol, washing petrol or similar.
Clean any glass surfaces only with a so, lint-free cloth. Never use
micro-bre cloths, cleaning sponges, scouring rags, steel wool,
metallic or abrasive objects or similar as these all scratch the glass
surface!
›Cleaning instructions for seals:
Only use mild detergents to clean the seals. Never use solvent
cleaning agents such as acetone, nitro-thinners, alcohols, acids,
bases or the like! These dissolve the upper surface structure of
seals. Special care products for seals (e.g. Vaseline, talcum
powder, liquid silicones) can be used to extend the elasticity of the
seal and thus the service life. The application should take place
about once a year.
ATTENTION!
Micro-bre cloths contain fabrics and bres that can destroy
the surface of glass and seals!
Micro-bre cloths are therefore not suitable for cleaning doors!
Cleaning instructions for door frames and doors:
›Plastic Surface:
Generally, plastic surfaces must always be wet cleaned. Dry wiping
leads to a dull, blunt surface due to dust and dirt. For cleaning use
only so, lint-free cleaning cloths. Cleaning products that are
specially designed for the maintenance of plastic surfaces or
decorative surfaces have been developed and their application is
proven. Soap containing cleaning agents are generally suitable.
Abrasive and solvent-containing cleaning agents can scratch or
damage the surface and therefore must not be used. In case of
heavier contamination, simply allow the cleaning product to have
a longer eect. The use of gloss seals can prolong the cleaning
intervals and simplify cleaning. The surface temperature must not
exceed 25°C during cleaning. Cleaning agents are available in retail
or from the door manufacturers.
›Wood Surface:
The cleaning of the wooden surfaces in the interior is best done
with mild detergents such as diluted detergents or soap alkalis.
Abrasive, corrosive and solvent-containing cleaners destroy the
lacquer surface. For cleaning, use only so, lint-free cleaning
cloths that do not scratch the lacquer surface. Window cleaners
contain small traces of alcohol and ammonia. These cleaners are
suitable for cleaning the glass panes as well as cleaning wood
surfaces. Aer cleaning, dry the wooden proles with a dry, so
rag, because if le on too long the alcohol can soen the surface
of the lacquer.
Outdoor surfaces are to be cleaned in the same way as indoor
surfaces. Outdoors, the surface is more exposed to the weather -
sun, rain, humidity and temperature. Over time and depending on
the intensity, this can aect the surface and possibly cause small
cracks and the like. These small damages must be repaired
immediately (re-painting) in order to avoid more expensive repairs
later on. Repairs and re-painting of door elements must only be
carried out by specialists!
›Aluminium Surface:
With aluminium surfaces, light dirt can be removed with a sponge
and water, to which a neutral cleaning agent (e.g. washing-up
liquid) has been added. Do not use acidic or highly alkaline
detergents that attack the surface. Never use abrasive cleaning
agents or scrubbing sponges! Solvents (e.g. Acetone, petrol,
nitro-thinners etc.) also damage the surface.
The cleaning of the surfaces must not be carried out in direct
sunlight. The surface temperature must not exceed 25°C. Cleaning
agents are available in retail or from the door manufacturers.
ATTENTION!
Abrasive and solvent-containing cleaning agents damage the
surfaces and must not be used! Only use so, lint-free cleaning
cloths for care!
Additionally, test the cleaning agent and cloth on a hidden area
rst (the inner fold for example).

- 20 - - 21 -
Intervals for maintenance and cleaning of surfaces:
The location, weather and external environmental inuences are
crucial for the frequency of cleaning and maintenance. Fixed
intervals cannot therefore be specied and must be set individually.
Generally, it can be noted that precise care and quick repair of
minor damage can signicantly prolong the service life.
Care instructions for hardware:
In order to permanently maintain the surface quality of the
hardware for the intended use and to avoid adverse eects, it is
important to observe the following points:
›Corrosion Protection:
› Ventilate the hardware and rebate areas so that they are not
exposed to direct wetness or condensation formation
(important during the construction phase!).
›Only use damp cleaning on the hardware and avoid permanent
wetness!
›Protection against dirt:
› Keep the hardware generally free of deposits (e.g. salt near the
coast) and dirt free. During the construction phase, immediately
remove dirt from plaster, mortar or similar using water.
›Protect hardware and closing parts from dirt (dust, dirt, paint,
etc.).
ATTENTION!
Defective or damaged areas must be repaired and serviced
immediately by qualied personnel.
›Protection against aggressive, acidic cleaning agents:
› Clean the hardware only with a so, lint-free cloth and a mild,
ph-neutral detergent in diluted form. Never use aggressive, acid
or solvent-containing detergents or scouring agents (scrubbing
sponges, steel wool, etc.). These can damage the hardware!
›Such damaged hardware may cause faulty operation and thus
negatively aect the safety-relevant properties. As a result,
injuries to humans as well as damage to other goods may occur.
