Warning!
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following safety instructions
before assembling and using the awning.
CAUTION!
Always keep children under close supervision when they are playing near the awning.
Never leave children unattended. Keep children and pets away while setting up the awning.
CAUTION!
Check your municipal by-laws prior to setting up the awning. Awnings are not allowed to be
used in some places in Canada. Please check and confirm before assembling.
It is recommended to install the awning on concrete walls. If it is necessary to install the awning on a brick
wall, install the expanding bolts directly into the bricks without using mortar. Other types of surfaces,
such as wood or plasterboard, are not strong enough to support this awning especially in windy, rainy, or
snowy conditions.
1. Never use the awning in extreme weather conditions. This could cause damage to property and/or
injury to the user.
2. Before installation, make sure there is enough space to extend the awning without any obstructions.
3. At least 3 adults are needed for the installation.
4. Install this awning at a minimum height of 10’ (3 m) above the ground.
5. When working at a higher height, always use a suitable ladder.
6. Keep the awning’s fabric away from fire sources and flammable objects.
7. Do not place any heavy objects on top of the fabric at any time.
8. Check the awning regularly to make sure all bolts and nuts are securely tightened. If any are loose,
tighten them immediately.
9. Do not stand on the awning while cleaning it or when performing maintenance on surrounding
windows or doors.
10. Only use original parts and hardware. Using replacement parts and hardware not recommended
by the manufacturer could cause a safety risk to the user and damage to the awning.
11. Retain the original packaging to store the awning.
12. Store the awning in a dry and clean area.
13. Use a clean cloth to remove any manufacturing residues from the awning before first use. Use a
damp cloth for cleaning the awning on a regular basis.
14. Install the wall brackets with the hinge mechanism facing out. Otherwise, the awning cannot be
fully closed.
