Rain Release Setting:
After the awning has been extended, choose the rain
release position to prevent water build up on the awning.
To position the awning in the rain release setting, lower
one arm of the awning and leave the other arm in the nor-
mal position. This will create enough of a slope for ade-
quate water run off.
Using the Carport Feature:
1. Extend the braces and lock them into the end of
the side arms. Tighten the black knobs.
2. Extend the awning as described under “To
Extend Awning.”
3. Unlatch the bottom of the rear arm by pushing
in on the lock handle on the arm bracket. Swing
the arm away from the motorhome to an
upright position.
4. Raise the rear arm extension lock handle all the
way up to the unlocked position. Extend the
arm to position the awning at the desired height
and lower the lock handle to lock the arms in
place.
5. Drive the stakes through the bottom holes in the
arm.
6. Repeat instructions 1 through 5 for the front
arm extension lock handle.
NOTE: To move the awning out of the carport position
reverse the above steps.
Securing the Awning for Travel:
Before traveling, check the following:
1. The awning is fully retracted against the sides of the motorhome.
2. The black locking knobs are tightened.
3. The storage locks are down and in the locked position.
4. The brake control is in the full down (locked) position, and no red
warning is showing.
5. The bottom of the front and rear arms are latched properly into the
bottom brackets.
6. The catch rod is stored away.
