After Extending the Awning:
After the awning has fully extended, no further setup or hardware installation is necessary. The 120
Volt AC power supply must remain on for the awning to automatically retract in excess wind. The
awning is equipped with a remote mounted anemometer (wind speed sensor) that detects wind speed and
automatically retracts (requires 120 Volt AC) the awning when wind speed exceeds a preset speed for
more than a few seconds. If the wind speed sensor retracts the awning, leave the awning retracted
until wind subsides to prevent possible awning damage. Retract the awning in inclement weather
conditions, or when leaving the motorhome unattended.
Retracting the Awning:
• Clear away any leaves, pine needles or other debris by lightly taping the awning from
underneath using a broom handle or other instrument that will not harm the fabric.
• Press the lower switch to retract the awning when at full extension. Awning travel can be
stopped by pressing the center switch.
NOTE:
If the fabric was wet when the awning was retracted, extend the awning at the soonest
opportunity to allow the fabric to thoroughly dry.
Emergency Procedure:
If the awning does not operate:
• Check to make sure the 120 Volt AC is on by hooking to shore power, starting the genera-
tor or turning on the inverter.
• Check the circuit breaker in the 120 Volt AC breaker panel located in the bedroom.
• The circuit breaker inside the awning motor may have tripped. Wait 30 minutes to one
hour then retry. If the awning still does not respond, the awning can be manually retracted
by using the supplied telescoping crank handle.
INFORMATION:
Follow the instructions for manual awning retraction in the equipment manufactur-
er’s manual.
