CARE OF FABRIC
A. VINYL FABRIC. Mildew will not form on the awning material itself, but may form
on the dust allowed to accumulate on the canopy. A mild detergent (soap & water)
will keep your awning looking new. Once cleaned make sure the awning is rinsed
thoroughly and is dried before storing. DO NOT USE BLEACH!
B. ACRYLIC FABRIC. A mild detergent (soap &water) should be used to clean the
acrylic canopy. Rinse thoroughly and allow the canopy to be dried before rolling up
the awning.
CAUTION. DO NOT USE BLEACH, CAUSTIC CLEANERS OR METAL CLEANERS
ON ACRYLIC AS THEY WILL CA USE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO FABRIC!

following items should be checked.
A. All mounting brackets are tight.
B. Check all pivot points for enlargements of holes or broken rivets.
C. Check end caps for cracking, splitting.
D. Check that awning rail is tight against coach and all screws are tight.
