Is the groundsheet fully integrated or separate?
The awning comes with a double-coated waterproof polyethylene groundsheet, which is typically sewn-in for drive-away awnings to provide a complete seal from the ground.
Troubleshooting
Awning does not inflate properly
Ensure the pump is securely connected to the valve and that the valve itself is fully open. Check for any kinks in the air tubes.
Water pooling on the flysheet
Ensure guylines are taut and the awning is pitched correctly with adequate tension. Minor sagging can be improved by re-tensioning.
Difficulty attaching to the vehicle rail
Verify the bead thickness compatibility (7mm/5mm) with your vehicle's awning rail. Ensure the rail is clean and free of debris.
Zips are stiff or difficult to move
Apply a silicone-based lubricant or zip treatment to the zipper teeth. Gently work the zip back and forth to loosen it.
Condensation inside the awning
Improve ventilation by opening mesh panels or windows. Ensure the awning is completely dry before packing it away.
