Our Warranty necessitates that you unpack and erect this product prior to your first use to ensure that all components are enclosed and in good condition. Please 
see our Warranty section for full details of our Warranty conditions. If you find a component missing or a fault, please contact your SunnCamp stockist for advice.  

SITE SELECTION  

Choose a location where the ground is flat, 
smooth and dry. Attempt to position the awning 
entrance away from the direction of any wind. 
Do not position on sharp, rocky or rough 
ground. 

 
GETTING STARTED  

Unpack the awning and place the carry-bag 
somewhere safe. Separate all components and 
check that everything is present. 
 

INFLATABLE TUBES 

The awning uses inflatable bladders, retained 
within a reinforced, zipped oxford polyester 
retaining sleeve to support the awnings 
flysheet. 
These inflatable tubes only require 5psi of 
pressure to give a rigid support. WARNING; DO 
NOT over-inflate as this may cause the bladder 
to rupture. 
The air valves on the tubes are attached with 
retaining straps but are not pre-fitted and will 
need to be screwed into place. Carefully screw 
the valve’s body on ensuring that you do not 
cross the valves thread. Do not over tighten but 
ensure sufficiently tight to produce a good seal. 
Where there has been a drop in the ambient 
temperature and you have topped up the air, 
please monitor the tube carefully because when 
the ambient temperature rises, the pressure is 
likely to increase and you may need to release 
some air. See section headed VALVES with 
regard to care and storage. 
 

AIR PUMP 

The awning is supplied with a manually 
operated air pump, specifically designed for use 
with the awning’s air valves. You must not use 
any other type of pump (including 12v tyre 
inflators or compressors). Before using the 
pump, it will require assembling. Unpack the 
pump and its components. Attach the dump 
valve to the outlet side indicated by an arrow 
pointing away from the handle marked ‘inflate’.  
 

Fitting to the other side will cause the pump to 
suck air (deflate) rather than blow. 
Now attach the hose/pressure gauge. Finally, fit 
the end nozzle to the inflator hose. Note: select 
the largest nozzle. 
Please not that your pump is fitted with a dump 
valve and it is essential you use this pump to 
avoid over inflation. 
 

AWNING 

Lay the awning flysheet out on the selected 
ground area with the entrance correctly 
positioned. Slide the beaded rear edge into the 
caravan’s awning channel. Secure the awning 
to the ground by the four corner tags using the 
awning pegs. Each inflatable tube is fitted with a 
single inflation valve, which is at ground level 
and positioned to the front of the awning. To 
access the valve, you will need to open the 
closest entrance. Once access is gained, 
remove the valve cap (turn anti-clockwise). The 
valve cap should be attached to the valve body 
by a plastic tab, if not, make sure you keep the 
cap safe ready to replace once inflation is 
complete. Insert the nozzle of the inflator hose 
into the valve using firm pressure. Operate the 
pump, making necessary adjustments to the 
awning flysheet as the tube inflates. It may be 
necessary to lift the tubes to help position them 
during the last stages of inflation. Once you 
reach a pressure of 5psi, stop pumping. 
Carefully disconnect the nozzle then replace the 
valve cap. Repeat this action with all the 
inflatable tubes, closing the access panel where 
applicable. Do remember to put the pump 
somewhere safe. 
Bring the awning to an upright position by 
pegging out the storm mate straps. These may 
need to be re-pegged later. 
 

STORM MATE STRAPS 

Attach the supplied storm straps to the captive 
clips positioned at each corner. The storm 
straps are designed to help secure the awning 
in windy conditions but are not to be relied upon 
as an anchor in severe adverse weather. 

 

ENTRANCE  

Ensure that all entrances to the awning are 
closed with all zips fully secured. 
If this is not done now, the awning will be out of 
alignment when fitting the awning pegs.  

 
AWNING PEGS 

Secure all the awning’s remaining tags to the 
ground using the awning pegs. The rear two 
corner pegging points should be pegged first 
followed by the front two corner pegging points 
to obtain the correct awning shape. Peg all 
remaining pegging points remembering to cross 
any zip door opening points. When inserting 
into the ground, the peg should be set at a 45 
degree angle away from the awning. Pegs 
should be hammered into the ground using a 
suitable mallet and NOT pressed in with the 
foot. Most bent pegs are caused by using your 
foot rather than a mallet. Peg removal is easier 
if you use a suitable extractor. Pegs used to 
secure an entrance or door opening can be left 
slightly raised. This will allow easy hooking and 
unhooking when opening or closing the door. 
 

GUY ROPES 

Secure each guy rope, positioning its peg at a 
suitable distance from the awning. 
Once in position, tighten the ropes equally to 
bring the awning to its natural shape. DO NOT 
over tighten. To tighten, hold the rope above the 
slider and pull the slider up. To release, hold the 
rope above the slider and pull the slider down. 
Remember that all guy ropes are a trip hazard, 
especially in the dark. 

 
ADJUSTABLE REAR SUPPORT POLES 

Finally, fit the two adjustable rear vertical 
support poles, one to each corner of the 
awning. The poles flattened top section must be 
inserted into the reinforced retaining pocket 
found at each top rear corner, behind the 
triangular panel. Both poles should be extended 
and the mini quick locks closed to hold them 
under tension. Male sure that the rear weather 
seal pads are positioned in-between the 
caravan’s wall and support bars.
