Units with Motor Drive

Drives operate with AC 230V/50Hz. Check the power supply before connecting. Any other voltage can destroy the drives.

Danger of Squashing

To avoid the danger of squashing in the area of movable parts (roller tube, cassette, folding arms, front rail), especially with automatic devices or wind/rain sensors, the awning must be installed at a height of at least 2.5 m from the floor or a permanent access way.

A distance of at least 0.40 m must be ensured between the front rail and a fixed object if the front rail, due to the awning's inclination, goes below a height of 2.5 m. If such installation is not possible, the client must take appropriate safety measures, such as a cover or placing the operating switch within sight of the awning.

Winter Operation

Snow or ice can destroy the unit. The unit may only be operated if no ice or snow is lying on the cover. During this time, automatic control devices must be switched to manual operation.

To prevent damage, please retract your sun protection device in rain, snowfall, or wind. If automatic control devices are used, adjust the wind controller analogously to the installed wind resistance class of your sun protection device.

• Wind resistance class 8: wind force < 4 (Beaufort)
• Wind resistance class 1: wind force 4 (Beaufort), moderate breeze, moves twigs and thin branches, whirls up dust and loose paper (Velocity 20-27 km/h = 5.5-7.4 m/s)
• Wind resistance class 2: wind force 5 (Beaufort), fresh breeze, smaller deciduous trees start to sway, white crests are formed on lakes (Velocity 28-37 km/h = 7.5-10.4 m/s)

Lifting and Handling

If it is necessary to lift the awning via ropes at a higher altitude, the awning must:

• Be removed out of the packaging.
• Be tied to the pull ropes in such a way that slipping is prevented.
• Be lifted evenly in a horizontal position.

The same applies for the removal of the awning. Climbing aids must not be leaned against or fixed to the awning; they must have a stable base and provide firm support. Use only climbing aids with appropriate carrying capacity.

When working at higher heights, there is a risk of falling. Ensure that suitable fall protection devices are used.

Awnings are only allowed to be used for the purpose specified in the instructions for use. Changes, such as extensions or rebuildings, not provided by the manufacturer, are only allowed with written approval. Additional loadings, such as objects stuck to the awning or cable tensionings, can damage the awning or lead to its crashing and are therefore not allowed.

Designated Use

The awning serves as:

• Sun protection
• Thermal protection
• Sight screen
• Anti-glare blind
• Rain protection (partly)

The inclination of the awning in the drawn-out position must be at least 14° to prevent water pockets when it is raining. Even with sufficient inclination, complete denseness of the seams cannot be guaranteed when it is raining.

Servicing, Maintenance, and Repair

Maintenance

All inspection and maintenance works must be carried out by a specialized HELLA company or a HELLA partner. Regularly check electrical wires of motor-driven units for damage. Check mechanical parts for visible damage. After exceptional events (storm, hail, malfunction, etc.), check the unit for damage before operating it. If damaged, do not use and consult authorized specialist staff immediately. Annual maintenance by specialist staff is recommended to detect wear early and prevent damage.

Repair Works

Improper repair works may cause personal injury or damage to the units. All repair works must be carried out by a specialized HELLA company or a HELLA partner. Use original HELLA spare parts only.

Cleaning

As an externally fixed sun protection device, the unit can get dirty over time. This will not reduce usability. Clean powder-coated parts regularly with a soft woollen cloth. Do not use solvents, alcohol, or scouring cleaning agents.

Remove leaves or other foreign material from the awning cover and cassette immediately to prevent damage or crashing.

Preventive Measures

If you have to retract the cover while wet, extend it for drying at the next opportunity to prevent mould or mildew marks.

Operating Guidelines

Adjusting the Awning

Inclination Adjustment with Standard Arm Bearing

To adjust the angle of inclination, the cassette awning CLEO 7040 is equipped with an adjusting mechanism, enabling an inclination from approx. 5° to 40°. Due to the special construction of the swivelling bracket, the inclination is adjusted by rotating the entire casing.

The angle of inclination and the horizontal position of the front profile are adjusted ex-works. If a modification is required, proceed as follows:

• Completely extend the awning.
• Put an Allen key 6 mm (5) onto the adjusting spindle (4). Turn the key to raise or lower the casing (see figure).
• A second person can slightly lift the front rail (6) to make adjusting the respective arm easier.
• Proceed analogously with the second adjusting mechanism. The awning raises or lowers side by side.
• Ensure that the angle between the folding arms does not exceed 5° during adjustment. Repeat the procedure on the left and right of the adjustment spindles until the desired inclination is reached.
• Never turn against greater resistance.
• Check the correct adjustment on the front rail using a spirit level in the extended condition.

Arm Adjustment

Ex-works, your awning is optimally adjusted. To ensure correct closing, the folding arms (1) should be parallel to the front rail (2). The arm bearing bolt is mounted in an eccentric bush (6).

To correct the angle:

• Open the clamping screw for the eccentric bush (4) using an Allen key 2.5 mm (5). Extend the awning to access the threaded pin.
• Retract the awning to approx. 0.5 m and correct the arm position by turning the eccentric bush (6) with an Allen key 8 mm (7).
• Please note: The position mark (9) of the eccentric bush must be within the indicated adjustment range (10). Otherwise, the arm may be parallel to the casing, but the awning may still extend askew.
• The arm should be parallel to the awning casing. Support the arm by hand (8) for easier adjustment.
• Check the inclination adjustment and repeat the procedure until the desired result is achieved.
• Finally, retighten the clamping screws (4).

Fault Removal

Disposal

Dispose of the device in accordance with current country-specific regulations for electronic scrap (e.g., at suitable collecting points).

Commissioning/Functional Check

Extend and retract the unit completely. For the first extension, ensure no one is in the operating radius or standing below the unit. Ensure units can extend freely without blockages during later operation. Do not extend if objects or persons are in the operating radius. Observe safety instructions.

After the first extension, check mounting material and construction elements for strength. Automatic control devices or switches not in the operator's field of vision must not be used for test runs of motor-driven units. A test cable is recommended for provisional motor operation.

Check all settings. Check all screwed connections for tightness. The awning is intended solely for its designated use; misuse can endanger the user. Additional loadings (objects stuck to the awning, cable tensionings) are not allowed as they can damage the awning or cause it to crash.

Clean the elements (see maintenance instructions). Pass these instructions and any manufacturer instructions for motors, switches, and controls to the user. Brief the user comprehensively on safety and user instructions. Confirm correct system design, installation, and briefing with safety information in writing (see handover report).

Adjustment - Somfy Eolis 3D Radio-Controlled Wind Sensor

The wind sensitivity is pre-set to level 2 ex-works, offering good functionality in most cases. There is no systematic correlation between the set level and the tested wind protection class. Adjust the level if the product retracts too early, restricting functionality. Increase to level 3 at most to avoid overload. For small systems up to 2.5 m sloping projection, use maximum level 4.

If the battery charge is too low, the awning signals a pending battery change by retracting automatically. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for battery replacement.

Adjustment - elero Protero 868 Radio-Controlled Wind Sensor

The wind sensitivity is deactivated to level 0 ex-works. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for adjusting inclination sensitivity. There is no systematic correlation between the set level and the tested wind protection class. Adjust the level if the product retracts too early, restricting functionality. Increase to level 7 at most to avoid overload. For small systems up to 2.5 m sloping projection, use maximum level 8.

If the battery charge is too low, the awning signals a pending battery change by double interruption while extending. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for battery replacement.

Removal and Disposal

When removing or disposing of the awning, parts under prestress (e.g., articulated arms, counter draw systems) must be completely released from tension and protected against unintentional drawing-out before removal. Please contact a specialist enterprise for this procedure.
