OISE
After a period of use, the arm knuckle joints may slide together slightly making a squeaking or squealing
noise; this is normal and not a reason for concern. To reduce the sound, apply a few drops of multi-
purpose oil (3-IN-1
®
1
or equivalent) on the knuckle joint seams. Operate the awning and repeat 3-4 times
to allow the oil to penetrate into the joint.

ANUAL
O
VERRIDE
If power to the vehicle is not available, the awning can be safely retracted
using the manual override located on the idler (right) end of the case.
NOTE:
This procedure cannot be used to extend the awning.
1. Remove the plug from the right end cap and save.
2. Insert a 3/8" socket drive extension and handle into the square drive
hole inside the end cap.
3. Turn the handle counterclockwise until the awning is retracted.
4. Replace the plug.
NOTICE
After closing the awning with the manual override, the lead rail may move out from
the case 1/4" -1/2". This is normal and the awning is secure for travel until power is restored or
repairs are completed. Do not attempt to force the lead rail in with the override, serious damage
can occur to the awning.
