switch will extend or retract the awning.

Adjusting the Awning Pitch
The longitude arms have 6 pitch adjustment settings from minimum pitch to maximum
pitch. The awning can be extended and retracted in any of these positions without having to
reset the pitch between uses.
Do not set the individual arm pitch at more than three (3) positions different
between the left and right arms. Damage to the arms and the canopy can occur
if the awning is retracted when the arms are set at more than three (3) positions
difference.
