The Slideout Topper will automatically open and close as the slideout room opens and
closes. Because the awning is level, water may puddle on top of the canopy. As the slideout
room is closed and the awning rolls up, these puddles may spill over the sides of the awning.
REFERENCE: For detailed information regarding the Slideout Topper Awning refer to the A&E
Systems, Slide Topper Installation & Operating Instructions Manual.
In the event of power loss or awning motor failure the Automatic Patio Awning can be
retracted as explained below. If you do not feel comfortable performing this procedure,
contact the nearest authorized service center for assistance. Do not drive the
motorhome with the awning in the extended position.
The awning must be serviced by a Dometic Service Center or a qualified
service technician before attempting to open the awning after this procedure has been
performed.
To Extend:
• Press and hold the remote switch (located on the front of the passenger arm rest) in
the extend position until the awning is fully open or utilize the remote control.
NOTE: Do not press more than one “EXTEND” button at the same time. The awning will not
work and/or may cause control box fuse to blow.
To Retract:
• Press and hold the remote switch in the retract position. When awning is fully closed
release the switch.
NOTE: Do not press more than one “RETRACT” button at the same time. The awning will not
work and/or may cause control box fuse to blow.
Manually Closing the Automatic Awning:
• Two people will be needed to perform this procedure.
• Slide the provided pull strap into the utility slot of the FRTA (Fabric Roller Tube
Assembly).
• Make sure that one person is securely holding onto the pull strap, while the other
person removes the bolt in the top of the right top casting. Once the bolt is removed
the FRTA will want to roll in on its own. This is why it is very important to hold the
strap securely.
