� Remote-control unit coding.

Programming the remote-control unit code is a simple and safe procedure, because the electronic circuit board recognizes the remote-control unit to be programmed by an automatic "learning" process. To programmed a new radio control unit, proceed as follows:

a: find the electrical panel of the gangway on your boat b: Press the PROG button on the front cover of the panel .The yellow LED will light up to indicate access to the

programming mode. c: Press any button of the radio control unit within 10 seconds to save the radio control unit on electronic

system. d: The electrical panel will emit an audible signal (5 beeps),and flashing for a moment the yellow LED will go

out, confirming saving of the radio-control unit. e: By repeating the learning procedure up to ten remote-control units can be programmed. f: To cancel the coding of all remote-control units, ,keep the PROG button pressed down for 5 seconds (time

for witch the yellow programming LED remains on), until the audible signal that confirms cancellation of all remote-control units is heard.

6) MAINTENANCE

DURING MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS ENSURE THATTHE WORK AREA IS WELL ILLUMINATED AND FREEFROM OBJECTS THAT COULD CAUSE TRIPPING OROTHER HAZARDS. HYDRAULIC FLUID CAN BE A SERI-OUS POLLUTANT IF IT 15 ALLOWED TO REACH THE SEA.REGULARLY CHECK THAT THERE ARE NO LEAKS FROMHYDRAULIC JOINTS.

� Cleaning and maintenance of the gangway The materials used in the construction of the gangway ensure that only a minimum amount of cleaning and maintenance will be required. To keep your gangway in the best possible condition, it is advisable to hose it down with abundant freshwater every time you return to harbor and to dry it with a soft chamois cloth, having particular attention for parts in stainless steel. lf left to drying without being wiped down, even the best grades of stainless steel can be subject to surface corrosion. lf left drying without being wiped down, even the best grades of stainless steel can be subject to surface corrosion. lf there are traces of corrosion or lack of shine on the metal surface that cannot be removed by washing, use a polish formulated specifically for metals, taking care not to stain the wood. Never use wire wool pads or other cleaning materials that could scratch the stainless steel surface. This would inevitably make it more prone to corrosion. The stem is the part of the boat that is most exposed to engine exhaust fumes, and acidic and greasy deposits will also be formed on the gangway. You should periodically wash them off with a neutral biodegradable detergent. The frequency with which this operation should be carried out will depend on how dirty your exhaust fumes are, so it is no possible to say how often this will be necessary. You must therefore assess the situation for yourself. A couple of times every season and before putting your boat into storage, it is advisable to treat the teak of the gangway with a suitable product, such as 'Tea k Wonder'. The wooden part of the gangway is particularly prone to damage caused by engine exhaust fumes. The extending section guides and the hinges must be cleaned and lubricated with a suitable spray product at least once a month. At least once per year the plank teaks have to be protected bya suitable paint, in order to avoid water infiltrations and swelling of the stratified wood which underlies. Eventual teak’s swellings won’t generate warranty issues.

� Setting sensors The gangways are fitted with electromagnetic proximity sensors, which act in a similar way to limit switches but have the advantage of being free from moving mechanical parts, making them more reliable. These proximity sensors are cylindrical, with a threaded body complete with fixing nuts. The electronic circuitry is sealed inside the cylinder, at one end of which are wires for output and power supply. The other end of the cylinder, is the part that is sensitive to the proximity of a metallic surface. In this case the sensors emits an output signal, which lasts until the metallic surface moves a certain distance away. The emission of an output signal is indicated by a LED on the cylindrical body of the sensor. Rotating gangways are fitted with 1 proximity sensor directly on the gangway and 1 other sensor on the plate located at the base of the cylinder that carries the cam. If the gangway has the optional hatch opening feature, another proximity sensor registers the closure of the hatch. The proximity sensors are fixed to supports and are adjusted to a precise position along a slot. Vibration can sometimes modify the correct operation of the gangway. In this case, the sensors must be adjusted as follows.
