To Retract the Patio Awning:
1. Loosen the strap from the awning leg if it has been stored there.
2. Support the weight of the awning with one hand while opening the extension
lock handle and lower the awning until the arms rest on the lower stop bolt.
Loosen the two black locking knobs enough to allow the support brace to trav-
el freely.
3. If equipped with Canopy Clamps, remove and store the clamps at this time.
4. Release the locking tab on the end cap of the awning leg and slide the inner
support brace to down the awning leg to the stop bolt. Repeat for opposite
side.
5. While pulling down slightly on the pull strap, slide the brake control down
located on the front awning leg.
6. Keeping downward pressure applied, slide the pull strap to the center of the
awning while holding on to the strap.
7. Place the hook end of awning rod into pull strap loop to assist in retracting the
awning. Make sure pull wand does not slip out of pull strap loop. Allow the
awning to roll up to the stored position.
8. Store the awning rod until it is needed again.
9. Verify that the brake control is in the locked or closed position. Snap the arm storage
locks into the down position and tighten black locking knobs.
Rain Release Setting (Manual Awning Only):
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 normal position. This will create enough of a slope for adequate water run off.
Caution:
Water can quickly accumulate on the canvas during storm activity and damage the
awning or motorhome. Storm related damage is not covered under warranty.
