The vent installed in the bathroom is also powered by 12 volt electricity. This vent is controlled by the ON/OFF
switch located on the wall. A vent similar to the one installed in the kitchen is optional.
In the bath area a skylight may also be installed. If installed, this is located above the tub/shower.

Doors

The front entrance door is a radius door equipped with a dead bolt lock for added security and a power flush step
well cover. When the door is opened fully, the door hinge will automatically hold the door open. To close the
door from the open position, either the inside or outside handle must be released for the door to move. For your
safety, a lighted, acrylic assist handle has been installed at the entrance door of the unit.

AWNINGS

Side Awning (Optional)

The side awning is an available option on this unit. To operate, follow these instructions:

Extending

1.
Loosen the black adjustment lock knob behind each main arm. Flip the travel lock latches up.
2.
Using the provided pull rod, reach up and pull the locking lever forward to release the awning.
3.
Hook the rod into the loop of the pull strap and pull the awning all the way out.
4.
Slide one rafter arm up until it snaps into place. Push down on the main arm to remove slack from the fabric,
and tighten the black adjustment knob. Repeat on other side.
5.
Slide the pull strap to the right end of the roller and wrap it around the main arm.
6.
Pull up on the lift handle and raise the arm assembly to the desired height. Swing the handle in and allow the
lock button to snap into one of the holes. Repeat on the other side.
7.
Press the release lever at the bottom end of one main arm, pull the arm assembly outward to a vertical
position, and readjust height. Repeat on the other side. Drive provided stakes through holes of each patio foot
into the ground.
8.
During rain, lower one end to allow water to flow off.
CAUTION
Whenever heavy or prolonged rain or wind is anticipated, or you will leave the awning unattended, it is best to close the
awning. Damage as a result of weather is not covered by warranty.

Retracting

1.
Pull the stakes from the ground, swing the arm toward the vehicle, and snap the patio foot into the bracket.
Repeat on the other side.
2.
Raise the lift handle to release the lock button. Lower the main arm to the stop plug. Swing the handle in to
engage the lock button in a hole. Repeat on other side.
3.
Loosen black adjustment knob, lift slider catch, and slide the rafter arm down to the bottom of the main arm.
Leave the black adjustment knob loose. Repeat on other side.
4.
Grasp the pull strap and pull toward you. Flip the locking lever to the ROLL UP position. Hold the awning in
the down position until you are ready to roll up the awning.
5.
Slide the pull strap to the center and using it to control speed, allow the awning to return to the side of the
vehicle. Allow the strap to wind diagonally to prevent a bulge in the fabric.
