Maintenance instructions
· The AutoReveal system has components that must regularly be tested, maintained,
and replaced to ensure system safety and maintenance.
· The best way to care for the AutoReveal system is to use it often. Each mechanical part
should be used at least once a week. In this way, residue and dirt can’t collect in the
bearings and irregular noises can be discovered in time.
· More frequent maintenance is recommended in case of frequent use or in case the system
is installed in a space with a high degree of moisture, dust, or differences in temperature.
· When necessary, disassemble the system in the same way it was installed.

HAVE A GREAT SHOW!
The system isn’t working?
· Verify that the system is correctly connected to the power supply.
· Verify that all cables are connected to the correct outlets and that none
of them are damaged.
The end positions are incorrect?
· Hold the roller in the in/out position until the roller stops on its own. Use the flexible
adjustment tool to alter the direction of the positions to the plus direction (clockwise)
or minus direction (counter-clockwise) until the axis is in the desired position.
Is the curtain stuck?
· Make sure the curtain remains well tensioned and straight while unrolling or rolling up,
otherwise it can get stuck in the reveal case and block the rolling mechanism.
