Important Safety Instructions for the Consumer/End User
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury or death:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Distribute and discuss copies of the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS manual with all persons authorized to use your gate. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
3. Always keep people and objects away from the gate and its area of travel.

5. Do not allow children or pets near your gate. Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote controls away from children and unauthorized users; store controls where children and unauthorized users do not have access to them.

7. Do not activate your gate operator unless you can see it and can determine that its area of travel is clear of people, pets, or other obstructions.
