Power Awning Troubleshooting Continued
What's Happening? What Should Be Done?
Awning works in opposite direction of what
switch shows.
Wires going to awning have been reversed or switched.
Reverse the wires.
Awning rolls up backwards.
The awning fabric should always be above the roll tube.
However, if the extend switch is engaged too long or
extend is hit inadvertently instead of retract, the awning will
roll up backward. This is not a defect. To correct the fabric
orientation, press the retract button. The awning will then
extend to its correct orientation and normal operation can
resume.
Maintenance - Solera Awnings
Fabric Care
NOTE: If the awning is retracted while wet, extend the
awning and let it dry as soon as conditions allow before
retracting. This will help prevent the formation of mildew
and add greatly to the life of the awning. Mildew does not
form on the fabric itself, but on the accumulated dust, dirt
and grime.
NOTE: Periodically clean vinyl or woven acrylic fabric
using a mixture of 1/4 cup of dish soap and 5 gallons of
warm water. Liberally apply the mixture on the top of the
fabric and retract the awning for 5 minutes. This will apply
the mixture to the bottom of the fabric as well. Extend the
awning and hose off with fresh water. Repeat if necessary.
Allow to dry before retracting.
