FIXING OF AWNINGS

In order to avoid puncturing the outer skin of
the caravan wall, it is recommended that
awning poles are fixed to your caravan using
load spreading eyelet pads or rubber sucker
pads.
Attaching awning brackets and associated
fixings to your caravan by using mechanical
methods which pierce the outer skin of the
caravan wall can allow water ingress which
will invalidate the product warranty.
Important:
Care must be taken when using an awning
as poles and suckers can cause damage to
exterior side panels.

Awnings should be taken down in strong
winds to protect the side panels from
cosmetic damage and dents from the awning
poles.
Note:
Awnings should be kept ventilated when
discharging products of combustion exhaust
into them.
