Soap or chemical residue can “wet” the fabric so that it appears unable to repel water. Rinse the fabric
thoroughly and test to see if it is water repellent after it dries. If leakage continues after washing and thoroughly
rinsing, please contact
Carefree of Colorado .
Girard Awnings:
Mix a solution of mild soap (natural soaps are best) and water. Use a brush to apply the solution. Thoroughly
rinse to remove soap. If a liquid detergent is used, a water repellant (such as 303 Hi-Tech Fabric Guard) treatment
will have to be applied. For stubborn stain removal contact Girard Systems.
Storm Precautions
The warranty does not cover damage caused by acts of nature; therefore, steps should be taken to prevent
damage from occurring due to wind, rain or storms. Retract the awning in inclement weather conditions or when
leaving the motorhome unattended. Should the awning need to be retracted while the fabric is wet, extended it as
soon as possible to allow it to completely dry.
NOTE:
Water weighs 8.33 pounds per gallon. The awning was not designed to withstand the 500 to
700 pounds of water that could accumulate on the canvas.
