Equipment
The Carefree One Touch automatic awning requires only
“finger tip” operation. A key lock on the One Touch switch
pad is provided to prevent accidental deployment of the
awning while the motorhome is in motion. The key is
removable in the lock or unlock position. Gas filled struts
keep the awning fabric tight at any extended position. The 12
Volt DC motor for the One Touch awning uses approximately
15 Amps while in operation.
To Extend the Awning:
• Verify all persons and objects are clear from the
extend path of the awning and related hardware.
• Turn the One Touch key to the ON position.
• Press and hold the momentary switch to EXTEND.
Motor will automatically stop at full extension.
• Allow 14 seconds for awning to reach full extension.
• Extension distance or fabric tension is adjusted by
toggling between RETRACT and EXTEND.
• Turn the One Touch key to the OFF position.
• Install the wind braces (2) between the upper rafter
and the main arm. Adjust wind brace so the inner
spring is under tension.
CAUTION: The patio awning requires nine feet of lateral clearance
from the side of the motorhome. This distance will allow the awning
to reach full extension. The One Touch patio awning was not
designed with a carport feature or a rain release setting. The awning
should be retracted if the motorhome is left unattended or high wind
conditions exist. Otherwise, wind damage to the awning may occur.
NOTE: It is not required to have the awning at full extension.
Awning may be stopped at any time of extension or retraction by
releasing the momentary switch.
To Retract the Awning:
• Remove the wind braces.
• Verify all persons and objects are clear from the retract path of the
awning and related hardware.
• Turn the One Touch key to the ON position.
• Press and hold the momentary switch to RETRACT. The motor
will automatically stop at full retraction.
• It takes approximately 14 seconds for the awning to travel from
the fully extended position to the fully retracted position.
• Turn the One Touch key to the OFF position to avoid accidental
deployment of the awning while the vehicle is in motion.
