Section 4: Vehicle Operation
Awning Care
Keep your awnings clean and in good condition to prevent costly repairs.

Keep the awning fabric clean. For detailed cleaning information, refer to the
manufacturer’s owner information.

Do
not
use insecticides or other sprays near the awning fabric. These can cause
stains, and could adversely affect the fabric’s ability to repel water.

Do
not
expose the awning to adverse environmental conditions, corrosive agents,
or other harmful conditions.

Do
not
allow the corner of the entry door to contact the awning fabric. Otherwise,
premature wear or tearing of awning fabric could occur.
 Never
close the awning (for storage) when wet. The combination of moisture and
dirt could result in mildew, discoloration, and stains. If it is necessary to roll up
awning (temporarily) while it is wet, make sure you roll it out and let it dry (as
soon as conditions allow) before rolling it up again.

Do
not
allow dirt, leaves, or other debris to accumulate on the awning, which
could cause abrasion and stains. Mildew could grow on dirt and organic debris,
causing permanent discoloration, stains, and odors to the awning fabric.

Do
not
use strong chemicals or abrasives to clean parts, as their protective sur-
faces will be damaged. Clean awning hardware (as needed) with a mild surface
cleaner.

Apply silicone spray lubricant as needed to the moving parts on the fabric roller
tube assembly.

Lubricate all pins and sliding surfaces of the arm assemblies with silicone spray,
as needed.

Do
not
use abrasive or corrosive cleaners, mildew removers, or hard bristle brush-
es on the awning fabric.
Vinyl awning fabric is durable and water resistant. Wrinkling is a normal characteristic,
which may be more noticeable when the awning is retracted, and after prolonged periods of
stowage (rolled up). Leave the awning open during warm weather to minimize wrinkling. A
slight “travel line” may appear where the door roller (if installed) contacts the fabric. This is
normal and does
not affect the integrity of the fabric.
To clean the fabric:

Open the awning.
 Mix 1/4 cup soap with five gallons of fresh water. Always use a natural soap, not
a detergent. The water should be cold to lukewarm, never more the 100° F.

Liberally drench the fabric with cleaning solution.
 Close the awning and allow the cleaning solution to soak for five minutes.
 Open the awning and thoroughly hose off the top and bottom of the fabric with
clean water. Repeat if necessary.

Awnings must be closed (and secured) while the RV is in transit.

Keep clear of arm assemblies while opening, adjusting or closing the aw-
ning. Failure to obey this caution could result in injury and/or property
damage.

Always operate the awning according to the instructions.

Periodically check that the fasteners are tight (tighten if necessary).

Keep the awning fabric and arms clean.
