Vinyl Awnings -
Mildew will not form on
the awning material itself, but may form on the
dust accumulated on the canopy. A quality vinyl
cleaner, such as
Carefree Awning Magic
, will
help keep the awning looking new. Be sure to
follow the instructions on the container.
Leaks:
It is normal for slight leakage to occur through
the fabric where water is allowed to accumulate.
If water drips through the needle holes in the
stitching use a commercial seam sealer that is
available in canvas and trailer supply stores.
Paraffin wax may also be applied to the top of
the seams. As the awning “weathers” these holes
will normally seal themselves.
Soap or chemical residue can “wet” the fabric
so that it appears unable to repel water. Rinse
the fabric thoroughly and test to see if it is water
repellent after it dries. If leakage continues after
washing and thoroughly rinsing, please contact
Carefree of Colorado
.
Storm Precautions
The warranty does not cover damage caused
by acts of nature; therefore, steps should be
taken to prevent damage from occurring due
to wind, rain or storms. Retract the awning in
inclement weather conditions or when leaving
the motorhome unattended. Should the awning
need to be retracted while the fabric is wet,
extended it as soon as possible to allow it to
completely dry.
NOTE
Water weighs 8.33 pounds per gallon.
The awning was not designed to
withstand the 500 to 700 pounds of
water that could accumulate on the
canvas.
fanS
Automatic
A wall rheostat controls the automatic vent and
power of the fan. The system operates from 12
Volt DC power.
Fan Operation:
Turn on the battery
cut-out switch.
Ensure the vent
cover knob is pressed
IN
to the Automatic
position.
Use the wall switch
to raise the vent
cover. The vent
cover must be open
at least 2” before the
fan will run.
Turn power knob
clockwise to turn fan
on. The power knob
also adjusts fan speed.
NOTE
To override the automatic setting, pull
the vent cover knob out to the manual
position and close vent. The fan blade
will stop spinning when the vent is
closed.
WARNING
Do not hold switch after the motor has
stopped. This may cause damage to the
automatic lift system resulting in a stuck
vent.
NOTE
The safety switch built into the fan will
not allow the fan blade motor to operate
unless the vent is open 2” or more.
Tips for Fan Operation:
To keep condensation from
accumulating, operate the fans.
Condensation occurs naturally from
fluctuations in interior and exterior
temperatures, humidity and dew point
changes, steam from cooking or boiling
large amounts of water on the cooktop.
Shower use is another source of
condensation.
If the fan fails to operate, check for a
blown fuse either in the domestic fuse
panel or the 4 Amp fuse on the fan.
To remove the screen, loosen the screws
holding the screen in place. Use a
non-abrasive soap and water to clean and
reinstall.
Slightly open windows on the shaded
side of the motorhome to create the
most airflow, especially on hot, sunny
days. Direct airflow by slightly opening
selected windows. Maximum airflow is
achieved between an open window and
the Fantastic Vent.
