Installing an awning may have a negative inuence on
the trailer/driving performance of the caravan.
Read the operating instructions from the manufac-
turer carefully.
Extending

mechanism.
• Hold the crank with one hand on the upper twist grip and the
other on the lower twist grip. During the operating procedure
gently pull the crank towards you and hold it as vertically in the
grommet as possible.
• Turn the connecting rod clockwise until the awning has been
rolled out about 1 m.
• Unfold the telescopic rods on the inside of the drop tube and use
them to support the awning.
• Only then should you roll out the awning to the desired position.
• Remove the crank.
Retracting
• Insert the hook on the crank into the grommet on the winding
mechanism.
• Turn the connecting rod counter-clockwise until the awning has
been rolled in except for the last meter.
• Retract the telescopic rods, fold them up and secure them.
• Only then should you roll in the awning completely and secure it.
• Remove the crank and store it in the vehicle.
If the canvas is slack when extended, retract the
awning until the canvas is tightly stretched again.
