3.2 Use in winds
The weinor PergoTex II complies with the requirements of the wind resistance class shown on
the EC declaration of conformity printed in the instructions for assembly Instructions. The wind
resistance class achieved after assembly of the awning is heavily dependent on the type and
number of fixings used as well as the installation surface involved.
The weinor PergoTex II may only be used up to the wind resistance class specified by the
company fitting the awning. This may deviate from the wind resistance class stated by the
manufacturer.
