Maintenance and cleaning

NOTE:
For small holes it may be necessary to immerse the bladder in slightly soapy water and check for bubbles.
7. Locate the hole by inflating the bladder lightly. Do not fully inflate the bladder!
8. Use repair tape to repair the puncture.
NOTE:
The repair can be enhanced by a combination of repair tape and repair solvent, a flexible adhesive. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions for repair.
Another alternative is to replace the tube. Spare tubes are available from your dealer.
9. Reassemble the AIR Pole after repair and drying time:
– Place the bladder (fig. l 6, on page 7) back into the outer sleeve (fig. l 5, on page 7) and close the zipper.
– Close the zipper of the protection cover (fig. l 4, on page 7).
– Reattach the AIR hose (fig. l 1, on page 7) to the isolation valves (fig. l 3, on page 7).
– Fasten the collar (fig. l 2, on page 7).

9.3 Care

NOTICE!
Material Damage!
• Do not use sharp or hard objects or cleaning agents for cleaning as these may damage the product.
• Do not use alcohol based materials, chemicals, soap and detergents for cleaning.
• Do not open or close the zippers by force.
• Remove bird droppings and tree resin as soon as possible to avoid permanent damage to the material.
1. Check the AIR Awning for dirt.
2. Clean only with handwarm water and a soft brush.
3. Test the waterproofer on a concealed area of the AIR Awning.
4. Protect the AIR Awning with impregnation against water and UV radiation.
NOTE:
Have repairs only carried out by an authorized specialist company or by your dealer. Repairs and modifications by
an unauthorized company may invalidate your warranty.

9.4 Seams

NOTE:
The AIR Awning keder beading is sewn to the AIR Awning with a special waterproof sewing thread. If this thread
gets wet, it swells and thus seals the pinholes. It must get wet a few times before this becomes fully effective.
1. Check the seams visually.
2. Reseal damaged and worn seams with seam sealant.
