Recommendations
It is essential that all bolt connections be checked after driving a short distance when you fi rst install your
Rhino-Rack Batwing Awning. Bolt connections should be checked again at regular intervals depending on road
conditions, usage, loads and distances travelled. You should also check the roof bars each time they are refi tted.
Use only non-stretch fastening ropes or straps.
Please remove Batwing Awning and crossbars when putting vehicle through an automatic car wash.
Do not stow away the awning for long periods if it is wet. You must allow the awning material to dry completely
before storing for extended periods of time. When rolling up the awning, avoid excessive bunching up of the
material before stowing. The awning should be rolled up as neatly as possible following the instruction on page 9.
Torque settings
Unless stated otherwise in these instructions, all fasteners should be set to the following torque settings -
M6: 4-5Nm (3-4lbs/ft), M8: 8-10Nm (6-7.5lbs/ft) and M10: 16-18Nm (12-13lbs/ft).
Load Ratings
With the addition of the Batwing Awning, the load capacity of your crossbars will have to be adjusted accordingly.
The Batwing Awning with mounting brackets weighs approximately 20kg.
