The Modul-AiR awning has both detachable side and front panels. It is generally easier to fit and
remove the awning from the caravan with all panels removed however:
It is important that all
panels are fitted prior to any pegging or inflating of the awning. This is absolutely necessary to
ensure the correct awning footprint is established and the tubes inflate correctly within that
footprint.
Thread the awning piping into the caravan channel. You will need assistance here, one feeding the
channel, the other pulling the awning along the caravan. Do not pull the awning by the inflatable
beams as this will damage them. Most caravans are fitted with “feed in” points at the base or at
head height of the channel. The Modul-AiR allows for the right hand facing side panel to also fit into
the caravan channel if required. This is a must if you are to use Modul-AiR as a
“Full Awning”
configuration.
Position the awning on the caravan taking care to avoid windows, doors and lockers. It is important
to establish exactly where you want the awning footprint, as to change the position after erection
requires a full dismantle and re-peg!
Fit pegging ladders to the two back corners of the awning on the clips provided. There are two
sewn-in clips at this point. One is for pegging the awning to the ground and the other is for the foot
of the back pole (see notes on next page). Please make sure you peg as shown in diagram 1 and pull
the side panels with the foam packers as close to the caravan wall as possible, ensuring both are
vertical and flush. To help get a secure fit, peg the ladder slightly
underneath
the caravan as shown
below.
Make sure at this point that the side door zips are both fully closed. Connect the black clip and
buckle arrangement together
(this is found at the top next to the caravan
) and adjust the buckle to
ensure the piping fitment of both the main base unit and the side panel are fully closed together.
