GENIUS
Operating instructions
• The GENIUS door lock is a special lock for locking and unlocking doors automatically.
• It is suitable for installation in timber, aluminium, steel and PVC entry doors for residential and public buildings.
• All assembly and electrical installation work must be carried out according to our assembly and installation instruc-
tions. Wiring the unit incorrectly can irreparably damage its electronic components.
• The GENIUS door lock must be operated with a free-running cylinder compliant with the German standard DIN
18252. Alternatively a thumbturn cylinder can be used, but it should be noted that this will result in a loss of strength
at the locking points.
• The GENIUS door lock can be connected to an external access control system (e.g. wireless, transponder or finger-
print scanner system) via a voltage-free contact (switching time: min. 1 second).
• Use the GENIUS door lock only when it is in a technically sound condition. Do not modify the unit's components in
any way.
• Use the GENIUS door lock only with genuine KFV accessories.
Improper use
• The GENIUS door lock must not be used with a cylinder with a fixed catch, as this will cause the main lock to jam
when the key is removed.
• The GENIUS door lock must not be installed in moisture-prone areas or areas with a corrosive atmosphere (e.g. elect-
roplating shops).
• The length of the cable between the power supply and the GENIUS door lock must not exceed 13 m.
Safety notes
• Work on an 230 V AC mains power supply may only be performed by a qualified electrician.
• All work on the 230 V AC mains power supply must be carried out in compliance with the current German VDE regu-
lations (e.g. VDE 0100) and any relevant country-specific requirements.
• All-pole safety isolation should be used when fitting the power lead on-site.
• Some external access control systems available on the market transmit a brief "open" signal when the operating vol-
tage is switched on. This can mean that the GENIUS door lock will open the door following a power cut. If in doubt,
please contact the system manufacturer.
Intended use
Where power supply cables are routed parallel to data cables (IDSN, DSL etc), interference can occur, eg: with
the data transfer speed.
