FLYSCREENS AND SUNBLINDS
Important:
Blinds should be checked for
holes and tears when you take delivery of
your caravan. Failure to report a fault at this
stage will result in a claim under warranty
being rejected.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Quasar/
Lexon only)
Flyscreen
Pull the flyscreen fully down and gently push
the crossbar towards the window so that it
locates in the retaining “cut out” within the
rear channel of the lateral guides. To release,
gently pull the crossbar downwards and
toward you and allow the tension of the
spring mechanism to rewind the flyscreen
upwards.
DO NOT RELEASE THE HANDLE – causing
the flyscreen to “whiplash” upwards – as this
will cause damage to the spring mechanism.
Sunscreen
The front channel of the lateral guides has a
number of “cut outs” to enable the sunscreen
to be retained at various heights – look
inside the lateral guides to locate these. To
raise or lower the sunscreen follow similar
procedure as with the flyscreen.
TENSION ADJUSTMENT
The tension adjustment clips are located at
the left side of the cassette – the top one is
for the flyscreen and the lower one for the
sunscreen.
Insert screwdriver into tension clip, apply
gentle inward pressure and rotate tension
clip one or two clockwise turns to increase
tension or anti-clockwise to reduce tension.
Gently release the inward pressure to enable
tension clip to re-engage into its internal
ratchet. Check tension and, if necessary,
repeat until the crossbars return to their top
positions without too much tension or
assistance. DO NOT OVERTENSION.
Note:
It is not recommended that the window
blinds are retained in the “down” position
whilst the caravan is being towed.
WINTERISATION
The flyscreen/sunscreen should NOT be left
in the “down” position through the winter as
this may cause the spring mechanism to lose
tension.
However, to rectify this, gently pull crossbar
downwards and toward you then allow the
tension remaining in the mechanism to
rewind, when it stops pull the crossbar
downwards and upwards five or six times to
restore correct tension.
Should the blinds not retract fully, please
follow Tension Adjustment instructions.
DOOR FLYSCREEN
The flyscreen runs in a bespoke cassette
housing with inbuilt track.
To Open/Close from inside or outside pull the
handle that runs the entire length of the
screen across to the desired position.
Cleaning
Use a damp cloth and, if necessary, a normal
household cleaner without abrasives or
solvents.
