seconds and the awning will automatically open. For the remote control key fob, press and hold the
“Extend” button for three seconds and the awning will automatically open. If
the remote rocker switch or the remote control key fob are not held for three
seconds the awning will remain in the position when button is released and will
continue to extend when pressed again.
NOTE:
When the power has been interrupted, wait approximately 30 seconds
before depressing button again. The control box will automatically restore power
when button is pressed again.
NOTE:
When installed correctly on a motorized RV, this system is wired to
prevent accidental awning “extension” when vehicle ignition key is in the “ON”
position. When the ignition key is turned “ON,” the “extension” mode is de-
activated and the awning will not extend. This however, will not prevent the awning
from being retracted.
The awning is equipped with a wind sensing device that will automatically close the awning when wind
conditions are present that may damage the awning. The factory preset setting is 18 mph. To activate the wind
sensor feature, locate the control box (Figure 13-2), simultaneously depress and hold buttons 1 and 2 on the
Remote Control Key Fob for three seconds. One of the wind speed LED’s will illuminate.
To de-activate the wind sensor feature, simultaneously depress and hold buttons 3 and 4 on the Remote
Control Key Fob for three seconds. There are no wind speed LED’s illuminated when de-activated. Damage to
the awning may occur in high winds if the awning is left in the open position with this feature de-activated.
Wind sensor is activated when shipped from the factory.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT attach or hang any objects from the awning or tie the awning down. If the sensor
is activated or the retract button is depressed and the awning rolls up, damage to the awning and attached
objects may occur. Obstructions in the proximity of the wind sensor can diminish the sensitivity. If wind sensor
is de-activated and damage to the awning occurs, the awning warranty may be void. The wind sensor is
specifically designed to allow air to pass across sensor probe.
IMPORTANT:
The wind sensor will only function correctly if the airway to the sensing probe is clear. Keep
airway clear of dust, insects, ice, snow, or other debris. The sensing probe can be cleaned with a mild soap
solution and a small soft bristle brush.
Caution
Since damage resulting from weather is not under warranty, anytime a heavy or
prolonged rain or blustery winds are anticipated, it would be advisable to retract the
awning. Similarly, if the awning is to be left unattended for any prolonged length of
time, it would be prudent to retract that awning.
