Operation in frosty conditions may cause damage to the awning.
Operation in snowy conditions may cause damage to the awning.
Retract the awning when it rains if the pitch angle is less than 14°.
It is not allowed to climb onto the awning nor place / hang any objects
on it.
The frame is covered in a protective foil, which must be removed after
installation.
When extended, forces like wind and rain will affect the awning. These
sometimes-substantial forces are absorbed by the awning and transferred
to the brackets. Under extreme conditions the anchor bolts might be
extracted from the wall.
It is extremely important to make sure the
mounting base offers sufficient load-bearing capacity before you
start installation. If necessary, you must have the corresponding
calculation done to ensure a stable installation of the brackets.
Should you have any doubts regarding the stability of the mounting base,
it is strongly advised that you contact a specialist on site.
The awning is solely intended to protect against sun.
It is not to be
used during strong wind, rain, hail, or snow. In such weather conditions the
awning must be retracted immediately.
4. PREPARATION
Carefully detach the awning from the box and remove the polystyrene
protectors as well as any other packing-material. Place the awning aside to
keep it from possible scratches, damage or soiling during the assembly-
process. Check if the parts in the package are complete and correspond with
the part-list in this instruction. Should anything be missing or damaged, do
not start with the installation but contact your supplier first.
Be aware that sudden extension may occur during unpacking.
