Please note the following warnings:
WARNING!
!
 Before starting your journey, check that the awning is fully
retracted. Never move the vehicle when the awning is open.
 Never drive with the crank inserted. Remove the crank before
starting your journey.
 Do not drive the vehicle if the fabric is damaged or torn, even if
the awning has been properly retracted. The awning arms are
held in place by the fabric. If the fabric rips while driving, the
awning will suddenly shoot out. This can lead to serious injury.
Secure the awning so that it cannot extend suddenly and
unexpectedly while driving.
 Do not open the awning while driving.
 Do not open the awning in strong winds or snowfall.
 Retract the awning if strong winds, heavy rain or snowfall are
imminent.
 Make sure that water or snow does not accumulate on the
fabric. Otherwise this could damage the awning or the awning
arms could collapse and cause severe injury or fatality.
 Do not approach the awning
– if it was left open during heavy winds
– if pools of water have formed on it
– if snow has accumulated on it
– if any debris is on the awning fabric.
The awning may move unexpectedly, become unstable and
bend or break.
 Do not leave the extended awning unattended. Retract the
awning before leaving your location.
 Keep a safe distance away from the awning when having
barbecues or open fires. The fabric can be damaged by heat or
catch fire.
