Troubleshooting
Awning does not extend or retract smoothly
Check the pull rope for tangles or obstructions. Ensure the fabric is not caught on the frame. Clean any visible dirt or debris from the roller mechanism.
Fabric appears saggy or uneven
Ensure the frame is installed level. Adjust tension on the fabric if possible according to manual instructions. Allow fabric to hang in sunlight for a day to help it settle.

Lubricate the moving parts of the frame with a silicone-based lubricant suitable for outdoor use.
