Retract the arms and lower the awning until the arms rest on the lower
stop bolts and lock into position. Loosen the two black locking knobs.
Release the locking tab on the end of the awning leg. Slide the pull strap
to the center of the awning while holding on to the strap. Allow the
awning to roll up to the stored position.
• Snap the arm storage locks into the down position
and tighten the black locking knobs.
• Verify that the brake control is in the locked or closed position.
CAUTION: When the awning is at full extension do not
allow the awning to snap back into the retracted position.
Personal injury or damage to the awning or motorhome
may occur.
