Mounting the tension rafter (fig. c, page 7)
Awnings with a length of 4 metres or more need to have a tension rafter fitted in the
middle of the awning. This prevents the awning from sagging.
➤ Slide the tension rafter together.
➤ Fit the top end of the tension rafter into the attachment on the housing.
➤ Slide the other end of the tension rafter into the attachment in the lead rail.
7.3 Retracting the awning
A
NOTICE!
• Only retract the awning when the fabric is free of debris (branches,
leaves or similar). Otherwise the awning may be damaged when it is
retracted.
• Keep the awning free of dirt to prevent abrasions, stains and mildew.
• When retracting the awning, make sure that no branches or other
objects are trapped in it.
➤ Remove any debris (branches, leaves or similar) lying on the fabric.
➤ Loosen the struts from the fastenings (pegs or latches on the vehicle).
Retracting the awning using a hand crank
➤ Click the top end of the hand crank into the holder in the awning.
➤ Turn the hand crank until the awning is extended by only about 1.5 metres.
Position the struts vertically and back under the lead rail every 30 cm so that the
awning stays secured at all times.
➤ Fold the lever of the right strut down to loosen the struts.
➤ Slide the struts together completely.
➤ Fold the right strut up.
➤ Turn the right strut into the lead rail.
➤ Slide the bottom part of the right strut into the latch of the lead rail.
➤ Retract the other strut in the same way.
➤ Turn the hand crank until the awning is fully retracted.
