FAQs

What is the maximum width this awning can extend to?

The awning has an adjustable width of up to 1000 cm.

Is the fabric waterproof?

The fabric is made of polyester with a PU coating, making it water-resistant and suitable for outdoor use, but it should be retracted during heavy rain.

What should I do if the awning is damaged?

Do not use the awning if it is damaged and needs repair or adjustment. For repairs involving parts under tension, a specialist should be commissioned.

Can I leave the awning out in windy conditions?

No, the side awning must be retracted if the wind speed reaches higher than 28 km/h.

What is the recommended way to clean the awning?

Clean the fabric with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

What are the risks associated with installation?

During installation, there can be risks of crushing and shearing. Care should be taken with fingers, and tensioned parts require professional attention if adjustments are needed.

Can this awning be used in winter?

The operation in frosty conditions may damage the product, so it is advised not to use it during freezing temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Awning does not retract smoothly.

Check for any obstructions or kinks in the fabric. Ensure the roller mechanism is clean and free from debris. If the issue persists, the tension in the spring mechanism might need professional adjustment.

Fabric appears damaged or torn.

Inspect the fabric for tears or holes. Minor tears might be repairable with fabric adhesive, but significant damage may require fabric replacement. Do not use if damaged.

Awning is difficult to extend or stays partially extended.

Ensure the support post is properly positioned and secured. Check that the roller mechanism is not binding. If the problem is with the automatic retraction, it might indicate an issue with the spring mechanism, which requires professional attention.

During installation, be mindful of potential crushing and shearing risks, and take care with your fingers. If the system has tensioned parts, it is recommended to have a specialist relax or secure them before attempting any repairs, alterations, or disassembly.
