WELCOME
Thank you for purchasing your Kampa awning. Please read these instructions care-
fully before attempting to set up your awning and retain for future reference. If used
properly, your awning should give you years of trouble free use. We recommend that
your awning is insured against accidental and storm damage as this is not covered by
the warranty.
Awnings contain a high proportion of synthetic materials and under certain conditions
will be affected by condensation inside the awning. This should not be confused with
leaking and condensation can be improved by ensuring adequate ventilation.
IMPORTANT:
The main seams of this awning have been factory taped to help prevent
leakage. Depending upon your expectations, it may be necessary to treat the remain-
ing seams with a seam sealant. Seam sealant should also be applied to areas where
the taping is damaged or has peeled away through wear and tear. It can also be ap-
plied to areas where a leak may have developed. Seam sealant is available through
your dealer. We recommend McNett Seamsure.
This awning is designed for use in light to moderate weather. During strong winds or
snowfall we recommend that you take your awning down. The awning is designed for
touring use; it is not designed for static or commercial use.
We recommend a trial run before using your awning for the first time. This will allow
you to familiarise yourself with the awning, its set up and any limitations the awning
may have for your particular use.
Before using for the first time please check the contents of your awning

SEAMS
The main seams of this awning have been factory taped to help prevent leakage. De-
pending upon your expectations, it may be necessary to treat the remaining seams
with a seam sealant. Seam sealant should also be applied to areas where the taping
is damaged or has peeled away through wear and tear. It can also be applied to areas
where a leak may have developed. Seam sealant is available through your dealer.
We recommend McNett Seamsure.
SUITABILITY
This awning is designed for use in light to moderate weather. During strong winds or
snowfall we recommend that you take your awning down. The awning is designed for
occasional use; it is not designed for static or commercial use.
UV DEGRADATION
Awning fabrics can be weakened by prolonged exposure to sunlight. Under normal
holiday use your awning will give long service but use for extended periods in strong
sunlight will soon cause deterioration. In those cases it would be wise to use a site as
shaded as possible. UV degradation is not covered under the warranty. The warranty
does not cover awnings used on permanent sites, displays or for commercial pur-
poses.
CONDENSATION
Awnings contain a high proportion of synthetic materials and under certain conditions
will be affected by condensation inside the awning. This should not be confused with
leaking and condensation can be improved by ensuring adequate ventilation. Conden-
sation and its effects are not covered under the warranty.
SAFETY
DO NOT COOK IN THE AWNING OR USE NAKED FLAMES. READ AND UNDER-
STAND THE FIRE PRECAUTIONS LABEL SEWN INTO THE INSIDE OF THE AWN-
ING.
DISMANTLING
Reverse the set up procedure. Ensure that all parts are clean before packing in the
carry bag. If the awning is wet or damp, dry fully as soon as possible.
CARE
Awnings are best stored opened out. Air fully and ensure it is totally dry before pack-
ing away. Store in a well ventilated dry place. A wet/damp awning will develop mildew
surprisingly quickly.
Dirty awnings can be washed using clean water and a soft brush. Do not scrub and
never use detergents.
Poles should be protected from damage and should be stored completely dry to pre-
vent corrosion of the ferrules. To prevent corrosion steel poles can be stored with a
light coating of petroleum jelly to protect them. Ensure that this is completely removed
before use. Damage due to improper use, wind damage or neglect is not covered un-
der the warranty. Have any damage repaired at the first opportunity.
