5.2. Closing the Gate

To close, simply push the gate panel until it clicks securely into the locked position. Always ensure the gate is fully closed and latched.

5.3. EZY-Check Indicator

The gate features an EZY-Check indicator. If a red indicator is visible, the gate is not properly closed and locked. Ensure the gate is fully closed until the red indicator is no longer visible.

5.4. Smart Stay-Open Feature

For convenience, the gate includes a Smart Stay-Open feature. To engage this feature, open the gate past a certain point, and it will remain open. To disengage, simply push the gate back towards the closed position.

6. Maintenance & Care

To maintain the product's condition and ensure continued safe operation:

• Clean regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
• Periodically inspect all parts for wear, damage, or loose connections. Tighten any loose fittings.
• If any part is damaged, discontinue use immediately and contact customer support for replacement parts.

7. Troubleshooting

• Gate does not latch securely: Ensure the gate is properly aligned and there are no obstructions preventing it from closing fully. Check that the wall brackets (if hardware mounted) are installed correctly and securely.
• Gate feels unstable: Verify that all panel connections are tight. For barrier configurations, ensure the wall brackets are firmly attached to a sturdy surface according to the installation instructions.
• EZY-Check indicator shows red: This indicates the gate is not fully locked. Push the gate firmly until the red indicator disappears.
