Product specific safety notices - Locking cylinder (Z4) 3061
WARNING
Escape door function malfunction
The use of unsuitable components or ones that are not ready for operation can impair the function of an escape door. If you use the anti-panic cylinder in non-approved locks, the escape door function may be impaired and cannot be released again.
- Make sure that all parts of the lock are ready for operation.
- Make sure that the panic function of the mortise lock is ensured.
- Please refer to the documentation of the lock manufacturer.
- Use the anti-panic cylinder within the specified temperature range.
- Perform a function test after installing the anti-panic cylinder or changing its battery.
CAUTION
Use of the anti-panic version of the locking cylinder in non-approved locks
If you use the anti-panic version of the locking cylinder in unauthorised locks, the escape door function may be impaired and cannot be released again.
- Only use the anti-panic version of the locking cylinder in locks for which the locking cylinder is expressly approved.
- Please refer to the documentation of the respective lock manufacturer.
- Contact SimonsVoss Technologies GmbH for further information on this subject (see Help and other information).
CAUTION
Hand injuries from carrier springing back
A spring-loaded carrier is used in the anti-panic construction of the closing cylinder. This carrier can spring back when it is not installed, causing hand injuries.
- Do not hold the anti-panic construction of the closing cylinders in the area of the carrier.
IMPORTANT
Damage caused by moisture in outdoor use
Moisture can damage the electronics.
- If you want to use the locking cylinder for outdoor applications or in high humidity (bathrooms or washrooms), use the WP version.
- Carefully insert the locking cylinder to avoid damaging the O-rings.
Mechanical damage to the thumb turn as a result of obstacles
If the thumb turn can knock against the wall or other objects as a result of the installation situation, it may become damaged.
- In such situations, use a suitable door stop.
Mechanical damage to the thumb turn through misuse as door-opener
Some doors are very heavy and solidly constructed. The thumb turn is not suitable for opening such doors.
- Don't pull the thumb turn to open doors.
- Make suitable door openers available (suitable handles) to avoid misuse of the thumb turn.
DoorMonitoring in gear locks
Door monitoring cylinders are not suitable for operation in multi-lock systems with gear (gear locking devices). Except: DM.AP2, without bolt monitoring.
- Do not use door monitoring cylinders in gear locking devices.
NOTE
Maintenance interval of not more than one month for emergency exit locks
As per European standard EN 179, Appendix C, all components in a locking device must be checked at intervals no greater than one month to ensure that they are in satisfactory working order as part of emergency exit locking device maintenance.
Locking up of persons without means of identification
The freely-rotating construction of the closing cylinder can only be opened with a means of identification from both sides.
- Ensure that no persons without means of identification are in the secured area.
Length of locking system password
For security reasons, the locking system password must consist of at least 8 characters. The code length for digital closing cylinders (and for System 3060/3061 and MobileKey) corresponds to 2168 Bit.
Fault in the interior knob due to moisture
The inner knob of the closing cylinder is of protection class IP40 and is thus not protected from moisture.
- Ensure that the interior knob cannot come into contact with water.
Battery changes may only be carried out by trained personnel and only with the intended battery key (Z4.SCHLUESSEL)!
Programming with obsolete LSM version
New components can only be programmed with the current version of LSM.
Difficulty of operation of the lock due to stiff latch or bolt
If the latch or bolt of the mortice lock are stiff, the closing cylinder will also be stiff.
- Check that the latch or the bolt of the mortice lock are free-moving.
Fitting error or incorrect order
If you make a mistake in measuring the door and order a closing cylinder, the closing cylinder will not fit.
- Check the dimensions of the door again before ordering.
