The flat pitch Travel'r and the adjustable pitch Travel'r (when the awning is set at the
minimum flat pitch) will automatically dump accumulated water. The feature works by
having one arm automatically folding partially closed to create a valley in the canopy.
The valley allows the water to run off one side to prevent pooling. When the rain has
stopped and the water has drained, the arm will extend back to normal.
This feature is disabled when accessories such as rafters, tie-downs or Add-A-Rooms
are installed and when the adjustable pitch awning is set in a rain release setting.

If the original power source fails or is unavailable, the Travel'r has emergency
override terminals (12V). The terminals can be used with a 10V-18V power
source, such as a cordless drill battery or car battery.
WARN I N G
Do not connect the Travel'r terminals to a 110V power
source! Doing so will permanently damage the awning!
CAUTION
Do not use the emergency terminals without following the
directions below. The electronic circuit creates a dynamic brake for the motor by
shorting and grounding the motor leads. Steps 1 & 2 remove the brake to allow
the emergency override to work.
