Troubleshooting
Awning not holding air
Check all valve seals for tightness and ensure they are fully closed. Inspect air tubes for any punctures and use the provided repair kit if necessary.
Difficulty connecting to vehicle
Ensure the Link Access Zone is correctly positioned and tensioned. Adjust the vehicle height or awning connection points if possible.
Condensation inside the awning
Improve ventilation by opening mesh panels or vents. Ensure the awning is pitched in a well-aired location and avoid cooking inside.
Zips are stiff or difficult to use
Gently clean the zip teeth with a damp cloth and apply a silicone-based lubricant designed for zippers. Ensure fabric is not caught in the zip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Unpack the awning and lay it out. Connect the pump to the DuraAir tubes and inflate to the recommended pressure (0.6 bar / 9 psi). Use the guylines and pegs to secure the awning to the ground. Connect the Link Access Zone to your campervan, ensuring a snug fit.
Compatibility: This is a drive-away awning designed to attach to vehicles. Ensure your vehicle's height is compatible with the awning's design. The Link Access Zone provides flexible connection options.
Care: After use, ensure the awning is completely dry before packing to prevent mold and mildew. Clean the fabric with mild soap and water; avoid harsh chemicals. Store in the provided carry bag in a cool, dry place. Regularly check and maintain the air tubes and zips.
