Installing the awning

6 Installing the awning
6.1 Required installation material
For the installation of the rain gutter, you will need:
 Mounting rail (not in the scope of delivery, must be ordered suitable to the
vehicle)
 Various tools, e.g. screwdriver
 A suitable flexible adhesive/sealant, e.g. Sikaflex
 A cleaning agent that is recommended for use with the adhesive
 A primer that is recommended for use with the adhesive
6.2 Notes on installation
During installation, observe the following:
WARNING!
!
 Keep a sufficient distance from objects or other vehicles. Once
it is retracted, it should be at least 40 cm away from other
objects and vehicles.
 If the installation position is not predefined by the mounting rail,
ensure the roof of the motorhome can safely take the weight of
the awning before installation. Otherwise, the awning may
become unstable and bend or break.
NOTICE!
A
 If the vehicle-specific installation manual specifies through
bolting, ensure the inner screw joints are accessible.
 If there is insufficient space above the door after the awning is
mounted, the door must remained closed when retracting or
extending to avoid the door making contact with the arms or the
front panel.
The required space depends on the design of the door (door
width, swing or sliding door) as well as the set awning angle of
inclination (fig. 2, page 3).
 The cables and cabinets in the interior of the vehicle may not be
damaged by drilling the holes.
