In the event of power loss or motor failure, the awning can

retract the awning in the event of dry camping or camping
without a battery.
1. Remove the rubber grommet (Fig.18A) from the drive head
assembly, exposing the manual override nut on the motor.

NOTE:
Use caution when retracting the awning manually.
The use of a step stool or ladder may be required to
completely retract the awning.
3. When the awning is completely retracted, replace the
rubber grommet in the drive head assembly (Fig.18A) .
DURING INCIDENTS OF HIGH WIND, HEAVY RAIN OR
EXTENDED TIME AWAY FROM THE UNIT, IT IS ADVISABLE
TO RETRACT THE AWNING COMPLETELY TO PREVENT
DAMAGE TO THE AWNING AND THE UNIT.
Maintenance
Fabric Care
NOTE: If the awning is retracted while wet, extend the awning
and let it dry as soon as conditions allow before retracting.
This will help prevent the formation of mildew and add greatly
to the life of the awning. Mildew does not form on the fabric
itself, but on the accumulated dust, dirt and grime.
NOTE: Periodically clean vinyl or woven acrylic fabric using
a mixture of
1/4
cup of dish soap and 5 gallons of warm water.
Liberally apply the mixture on the top of the fabric and retract the
awning for 5 minutes. This will apply the mixture to the bottom
of the fabric as well. Extend the awning and hose off with fresh
water. Repeat if necessary. Allow to dry before retracting.
NOTE: The motor’s internal drive system prevents the awning
from moving (extend or retract) on its own. If the motor is
damaged or disabled, be sure to secure the awning in the
retracted position with a strap around both the outer arm and
the mount arm before the manual override nut is released.
