Safety instructions

DANGER! Failure to obey this instruction will cause death or serious injury. Hazard of carbon monoxide poisoning

- Never use a fuel-burning appliance such as barbecues or gas heaters inside the awning tent. The burning process produces carbon monoxide which accumulates inside the awning tent as there is no flue.

WARNING! Failure to obey these warnings could result in death or serious injury. Fire hazard

• Make sure you know the fire precaution arrangements on the site.
• Do not cook inside the awning tent or use open flames.

Beware of suffocation

- Make sure ventilation openings are open all the time to avoid suffocation.

CAUTION! Failure to obey these cautions could result in minor or moderate injury. Risk of injury

• This device is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the device by a person responsible for their safety.
• Do not allow children to play around the awning tent and ensure that suitable protective footwear is worn. Guy lines are a trip hazard and pegs can be sharp.

Using the awning tent

Before first use

Familiarize yourself with the product by carrying out a test set up before the product is used for the first time. Check if the scope of delivery is complete.

Choosing a site

Choose a flat site that is protected from wind:

1. If necessary, use a windbreak.
2. Choose a shaded site to avoid UV degradation of the fabric.
3. Avoid pitching under trees as falling branches, resin, etc. can damage the product.
4. Clear the site of sharp stones and debris to avoid damaging the groundsheet.
5. Set up the product with the doors facing away from the wind.

Setting up the awning tent

NOTICE! Material damage

Do not open or close the zippers by force.

NOTE

• The awning tent comes with general purpose pegs. These will be suitable for many sites but for some types of ground special pegs will be needed. Ask your dealer.
• Drive the pegs at a 45^ angle away from the awning tent into the ground.
• Peg each guy line in-line with the seam it starts from.

Keep the following tips in mind while setting up the awning tent:

• The figures provide a general overview of the set-up. The actual set-up will vary slightly based on the model of awning tent.
• Get help. The set-up is easier with more people.
• Push the poles into the sleeves from front to rear.
• After standing the awning tent upright, check the corner pegs and repeg if necessary. The groundsheet on the inside should be taut and in a rectangular shape.
• Peg the guy lines so that the awning tent is under tension without distorting the shape.
• If available, attach the storm straps.
• Check the guy lines from time to time to ensure adequate tension, if necessary use the runners to adjust.

Set up the awning tent as follows:

1. To protect the awning tent from dirt and damage, lay down a ground-sheet or footprint before unpacking.
2. Unpack the awning tent.
3. Separate and identify the different components.
4. Proceed as shown to set up the awning tent (fig. 1, page 3 to fig. 24, page 6).

Dismantling the awning tent

NOTICE! Material damage

Do not use force when dismantling the awning tent. Otherwise you might damage any material.

1. Reverse the set up procedure.
2. Push the poles out of the sleeves, do not pull.
3. Ensure that all parts are clean before packing in the carry bag.
4. If the awning tent is wet or damp, dry fully as soon as possible.

Cleaning and maintenance

NOTICE! Damage hazard

• Do not use sharp or hard objects or cleaning agents for cleaning.
• Do not use alcohol based materials, chemicals, soap and detergents for cleaning.

• Remove bird droppings and tree resin as soon as possible to avoid permanent damage to the material.

• If necessary, clean the product with clean water and a soft brush.

• Apply impregnation against water and UV radiation before each trip.

Storing the awning tent

NOTE

• Fully set up the awning tent for cleaning.

• Choose a sunny day for cleaning to ensure the material will dry thoroughly.

• Clean the awning tent.

• Air fully and ensure the awning tent is totally dry before packing away.
• Store in a well ventilated dry place.

Troubleshooting

NOTE

• During first exposure to water there may be some moisture at the seams. Through this moisture the threads will swell and fill the holes that are created in the sewing process.
• A fully equipped spare parts kit should include:
• Waterproof
  – Repair tape and repair solution
  – Silicone spray for the zippers
• Spare pegs

Problem Solution

Water leak ▶ Check for leaky seams, damaged tapings and moist areas. ▶ If you cannot find any leaks, see chapter “Condensation” on page 8. ▶ If you find any leaks, apply seam sealant.
Rip in the fabric ▶ Use repair tape to seal the fabric. ▶ Have repairs carried out by an authorized specialist.
Pole has broken	▶ Use a metal peg as a splint by taping it to the broken pole. ▶ Purchase a new pole.
Rear of awning tent is too far or too close to motor-home or caravan	▶ First peg the rear pegging points before applying too much tension to the front poles. ▶ Adjust the front poles.
Awning tent is sagging in the roof	▶ Re-peg the awning tent ensuring roof and walls are taut. ▶ Use special Monsoon poles (optional accessory).
Awning tent is moving in the rail	▶ Re-peg the awning tent ensuring roof and walls are taut. ▶ Use special rail stoppers (optional accessory).
Connecting spring has broken	▶ These parts are wear parts used to install the poles. If these springs become overstretched or break, they can be replaced.

Condensation

All awning tents suffer from internal condensation if one or more of the following conditions apply:

• high air humidity
  • high ground moisture
• a drop in temperature

Severe condensation can run down the inside of the roof and drip off ties, tapes and other internal fittings and can be mistaken for leaking.

▶ Install a waterproof groundsheet.

▶ Increase ventilation by opening doors and/or windows.

Disposal

Place the packaging material in the appropriate recycling waste bins wherever possible.
▶ Consult a local recycling center or specialist dealer for details about how to dispose of the product in accordance with the applicable disposal regulations.
