STORING YOUR AWNING

Correct storage is vital for the longevity of your Eclipse Awning. If on occasion the awning is required to be stowed 
wet, it is essential it is unpacked and dried as soon as possible. Rot, mildew damage and failures caused by 
incorrect storage is not covered under warranty.

STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY

This Awning has been designed for general camping in normal conditions. This Awning is designed as a temporary 
shelter, not a permanent structure. Do not leave up for extended periods and do not leave unattended.
To avoid the chance of personal injury and or property damage, DARCHE® recommends this Awning should not be 
erected or used in extreme weather conditions. Your vehicle should not be moved while the Awning is deployed.

An LED light strip is supplied with this awning. This LED light strip comes with a USB connection that requires an 
external power supply from a USB portable power bank ie 5V, 1.2A. 

(Power bank not supplied).
