Important:
To ensure rain water will run off awning,
ensure that one end of the awning is lower than the
other end. This will reduce the potential for water pool-
ing in the center of the awning. See FIG. 4.
5. Prior to closing awning, loosen knob to allow aw-
ning to reset to original position. Lightly tighten
knob to reduce potential for sounds of rattling
during travel.
In Case Of Awning Power Failure Or To
Manually Close Awning:
Important:
This procedure will require two people.
When this procedure has been performed, the awning
must be serviced by a Dometic Service Center or a
qualified service technician before using again.
There are two methods of rolling up the
awning if it appears there is no power to
the awning motor. The following method
should be performed first:
1.
When the Power Awning hardware is in the open
position and the 12 VDC power has been lost the
awning can be closed by supplying auxiliary pow-
er to the hardware. Connect the awning motor to
an external 12 VDC power source via user-sup-
plied wire (16 gauge minimum). A good external
12 VDC power source would be an automobile
battery.
To Close Awning:
Pinch Hazard. When closing awning, bottom
arm will fold down and against back chan-
nel. This area must be kept clear of people
and objects. Failure to heed this warning
could cause severe personal injury and/or
property damage.
