Retracting the Awning:
1.
Make sure that nothing (e.g., nearby tree, patio torches) obstructs the intended movement of the
awning.
2.
One can either use the
control box
or the
key fob
to retract the awning. For the remote rocker
switch, press and hold the “Retract” button for three seconds and the awning will automatically close;
for the remote control key fob, press and hold the “Retract” button for three seconds and the awning
will automatically close—either action will cause the awning to retract to its fully closed position. If
either method is not held for three seconds, the awning will remain in the position when button is
released and continue to close when pressed again.
NOTE: If one wishes to protect the awning automatically from possible windy conditions which may
damage the awning, set the wind sensor switch on the console to the “on” (usually upper) position. To
disable this function, set the wind sensor switch to the “off” (usually down) position.
Emergency Retracting Procedure for the Awning:
If the automatic retracting of the awning isn’t possible, one may manually close the awning using the following
procedure: (This procedure will require two people. Once this procedure has been performed, the awning must
be serviced by a Dometic Service Center or a qualified service technician before using again.)
1.
Slide the pull strap (provided) into the utility slot of the Fabric, Roller Tube, Torsion Assembly (FRTA)
[see the Weather Pro Power Awning Diagnostic Service Manual {Dometic Corporation} for
illustration].
2.
While one person holds the pull strap, remove the bolt in the top of the right top casting (see picture in
the awning owner’s manual for details). The FRTA will retract (i.e., “roll in”) once the bolt is removed.
Walk the awning to its retracted position (i.e., fully closed).
3.
When the awning is fully retracted, replace the bolt to prevent the awning from accidentally opening
during travel. NOTE: After this procedure has been performed, have the awning serviced by a
Dometic Service Center or a qualified service technician before any further attempts are made to open
the awning.
Vents
The kitchen has a 12 VDC Fantastic vent fan (Figure 13-4) installed to exhaust
kitchen odors. For normal operation, the vent is controlled by a thermostat
mounted on the vent. Once the vent power switch is in the “on” position and
the thermostat is set to a particular temperature, the vent fan will operate until the
temperature set-point is reached; at which time the vent fan will automatically
turn “off.” The vent fan should only be left in the “on” mode when the motor
home is parked and in use.
