5.7 Sun awning (Optional Extra)
Depending on the model, your motor home has an awning
that is either integrated in the edge trim or attached to the
side wall.
An awning offers protection from the sun, not against the
elements.
Do not place people or obstacles in the extension/retraction
area of the awning.
The awning winding mechanism is tted with a mechanical
block control to limit the extent to which it can be extended.
Never attempt to exceed the block control by force.
Always support the awning with the integrated struts when
extended.
The awning must always be completely retracted and secu-
red before driving.
Extending
Insert the hook on the crank into the grommet on the win-
ding mechanism.
Hold the crank with one hand on the upper twist grip and
the other on the lower twist grip. During the operating
procedure gently pull the crank towards you and hold it as
vertically in the grommet as possible.
Turn the crank clockwise until the awning has been exten-
ded to the desired position.
Remove the crank.
Unfold the telescopic rods on the inside of the drop tube
and use them to support the awning.
Retracting
Retract the telescopic rods, fold them up and secure them.
Insert the hook on the crank into the grommet on the win-
ding mechanism.
Turn the crank anti-clockwise until the awning has been
fully retracted and is secured.
Remove the crank and store it in the vehicle.
If the canvas is slack when extended, retract the awning
until the canvas is tightly stretched again.
