Inspect the arms and fabric for any obstructions or damage. Ensure the mounting brackets are secure and the wall is stable. The motor may require servicing if the issue persists.

Extend the awning fully and allow it to air dry completely. Clean affected areas with a mild soap and water solution, rinse, and ensure it's dry before retracting. Ensure proper ventilation when the awning is retracted.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The awning is designed for wall mounting. It requires a reinforced concrete wall for secure installation due to the forces involved during operation. Ensure the mounting surface is structurally sound and can support the awning's weight and forces. A minimum installation height of 2.5 meters is recommended. The package includes 2 wall brackets and expansion bolts. Professional installation is advised if you are unsure about the mounting surface's suitability.
Compatibility: This awning is best suited for installation on solid, reinforced walls. It is ideal for use above doors and windows to provide shade and light rain protection.
Care: To maintain the awning, regularly clean the fabric with a mild soap and water solution, using a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure the fabric is fully dry before retracting it to prevent mold and mildew. Periodically check the frame and mechanism for debris and clean as needed. The half-cassette system helps protect the fabric, but occasional inspection of the retracted fabric is still recommended.
