Common Operational Questions - Carefree TRAVEL'R Owner's Manual

C O
OMMON PERATIONAL
The following items are operational items that may come up as questions during
normal operation.
1. The motor has a thermal protection circuit. If the motor overheats, the circuit will
shut off the motor. Wait approximately 15 minutes, operation will return to normal.
As an example, this may occur if the awning is fully closed and retract switch
pushed repeatedly, then the awning does not extend.
2. The awning seems to extend and retract slowly. Normal operation time is 28-35
seconds to extend or retract. If the power supply is on the low side of the
acceptable voltage range (10VDC-14VDC) the awning will move slower.
3. The awning may appear to move jerkily. When the fabric is rolled out, the
Alumaguard or Uniguard may "bounce" creating a wave like motion in the canopy
fabric. This will create the appearance of moving jerkily.
4. With Uniguard, the awning sticks or hangs up. When Uniguard is installed with a
vinyl canopy, the vinyl will have a tendency to "cling" to the Uniguard when not
used over an extended period. Open and close the awning in short bursts 2 or 3
times, the awning will then open normally.
If the awning does not operate; contact your Carefree Service Center. Visit our web site
