SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Regularly check nuts and bolts attaching the awning to your vehicle to make sure fastenings
are tight and in good condition.
• If using a commercial car wash, remove awning and fixtures to avoid damage.
• Do not use awning or travel cover to hoist, lift or support yourself.
• It is important when mounting to a vehicle, that the mounting brackets supplied are
adequately spaced to support the weight of the awning.
• Products applied to a vehicle roof will alter vehicle handling. The manufacturer disclaims
all responsibility in relation to accidents due to improper use, incorrect maintenance, or
negligence in maintaining fastening hardware.
• Attaching walls made by different brands, may be an inappropriate weight and could damage
the frame. This will not be covered by warranty.
• If pitching in windy conditions it is advised to find a less exposed location. Park the vehicle
so the awning is protected from the wind. Ensure legs are extended and all guy ropes are
pegged out correctly. Be aware of dropping branches and other potential hazards. Collapse
the awning in strong winds.
• Keep hands free of pivoting frame when opening and closing awning.
• Polyester ripstop canvas is not fire proof, if exposed to flame or high heat sources it can ignite
and burn. Always take care when using spirit or gas appliances such as stoves and lanterns
near your awning.
• Never drive with awning erected.
