• If repair or adjustment work is needed, disconnect power and ensure that it
cannot be reconnected unintentionally.
• It is recommended that a remote control be placed in the room where the
skylight and its electrical products have been installed.
• If the skylight is positioned within reach, the opening of the skylight
operator must be adjusted to reduce the maximum size of the opening (see

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
• This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This device generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particu
-
lar installation. If this device does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the device off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the device and receiver.
- Connect the device into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate the device.
• FCC Radiation Exposure Statement: This device complies with FCC RF
radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.
• The term "IC:" before the device certification number signifies that the
Industry Canada technical specifications were met.
Function
• If the rain sensor gets wet, the skylight automatically closes.
• Disabling the rain sensor while the skylight is open creates a risk of water to
the interior of the building.
• If the rain sensor is activated, the skylight will close within approximately
30 seconds. If the skylight is activated with the remote control or another
control, it will take up to one minute until the skylight is completely closed.
Therefore, in case of sudden rain, water may enter the room before the
skylight is closed.
• In case of snow and/or ice, the operation of the skylight may be blocked
resulting in damage to the skylight.

Coupe-vapeur
Lorsque la toiture comprend un coupe-vapeur, ce matériau doit être étendu et
joint au cadre du surface du puits de lumière.
Consultez les juridictions et les autorités locales pour le recyclage et la
disposition adéquate des puits de lumière et des matériaux enlevés.
ATTENTION
Les puits de lumière et les surfaces intérieures dans les vieilles maisons
peuvent avoir été peints avec de la peinture à base de plomb, et l'enlèvement
des puits de lumière risquent de perturber cette peinture. Prenez les précau
-
tions nécessaires pour minimiser l'exposition à la poussière et les débris.
Pour plus d'informations sur le bon enlèvement de la peinture au plomb
rendez-vous à www.epa.gov/lead.
Le vendeur n'assume aucune responsabilité, quelle qu'elle soit, dans le
cas où un architecte, un installateur ou un propriétaire n'observe pas les
règlements de la loi qui sont applicables, les normes du code du bâtiment
et de sécurité.
ATTENTION
Tout thermo/verre pourrait éclater d'une façon brusque et inattendue dans de
rares circonstances dues à des imperfections du thermo/verre qui ne sont pas
détectable lors de la fabrication et de l'inspection suivant la fabrication par le
manufacturier du thermo/verre et à l'usine VELUX.
Votre société de vente VELUX offre une sélection de thermo/verre laminé
ou trempé pour ses puits de lumière. Le thermo/verre laminé représente une
combinaison de deux ou plus unités de verre incluant une ou plusieurs couches
intérieures de plastique (pvb) ou résine. Dans le cas de bris instantané, cette/
ces couches intérieures auront la propriété de retenir les fragments du
thermo/verre ensemble. Par contre, le thermo/verre trempé n'inclus pas cette/
ces couches intérieures pour retenir les fragments du thermo/verre ensemble.
Le thermo/verre trempé est conçu pour s'émietter en de petits fragments de
verre. Lorsque le thermo/verre trempé se casse, les petites pièces de verre
éclatées pourraient dans certaines occasions causées des dommages phy
-
siques ou de légères blessures aux individus se trouvant à proximité.
Consultez votre code du bâtiment et/ou un professionnel-consultant afin
de bien déterminé le thermo/verre recommandé pour votre application ou
si un thermo/verre laminé est nécessaire dans votre cas.
