ROOM OR LIVING ROOM AFTER AWNING HAS BEEN
EXTENDED. SECURING THESE OPTIONS ONCE THE
AWNING IS EXTENDED WILL NOT ALLOW THE FREE-
FLOATING SUPPORT ARMS TO WORK AS DESIGNED
AND MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE AWNING OR UNIT.
DURING INCIDENTS OF HIGH WIND, HEAVY RAIN
OR EXTENDED TIME AWAY FROM THE UNIT,
IT IS ADVISABLE TO RETRACT THE AWNING

Wind Sensor - Optional

The optional Wind Sensor will automatically retract the
awning if severe wind is detected, based on the wind
setting level programmed by the operator�
1. Press and hold the LOCK/UNLOCK button (Fig. 16A) for
three seconds to unlock the controller� The green LED light
will illuminate�
2. Press the wind button (Fig.16E) from 1 - 3 times,
depending on the amount of wind sensitivity desired�
3. The amount of wind sensitivity will be displayed via the
three LED lights next to the button�
NOTE: The levels of wind sensitivity range from 1 - 3�
Level 1 requires more wind (least sensitive) to trigger the
feature� Level 3 requires less wind (most sensitive) to
trigger the feature�
NOTE: When the awning is activated by the Wind Sensor,
the awning light will flash as a notification it is preparing to
close�
NOTE: Any time the awning is retracted for any reason
(by the operator or due to strong wind) the desired level of
wind sensitivity will need to be set (see Operation - Step
1 to set sensitivity)� The awning can also be extended
without activating the wind sensor�

One Touch Feature

For the auto-extend feature to function, the wind sensor
must be installed� To use the "One Touch" feature, press
the extend arrow button (Fig. 16B) twice within two
seconds�

Adjusting Pitch

NOTE: The awning will pitch itself to purge the pooling of
excess water and may dump a significant amount of water
without notice�
NOTE: Pitch can be set by adjusting the pitch arm to tip
one side of the awning to allow water runoff�
1. Extend the awning to the fully open position�
2. Choose the side of the awning for optimum shade or
convenient water runoff�
3. Pull downward on the joint of the pitch arm until desired
pitch is set (Fig.17A)� Belleville washers and bolt (Fig.17B)
allow for the joint to remain in the position set by the
operator�
NOTE: The awning can be retracted without resetting the
pitch�
NOTE: If the pitch arm does not hold position, it can be
tightened by adjusting the bolt (Fig.17B) in the center
of the joint�
Some awnings are equipped with a two-position pitch arm
(Fig.18)� The two-position pitch arm can be set in the pitch
position or snapped into a straight position by pushing the
release button (Fig.18A) and sliding the sleeve (Fig.18B)�
NOTE: Do not push the joint of any pitch arm up past the
point where the two sections are in a straight line� This will
put tension on the gas strut, which can cause the strut to
break�
