Solera® Power Awning with No Manual Override Owner's Manual
Retracting the Awning
1. Verify the unit's battery is fully charged and connected to the electrical system.
2. Press and hold "RETRACT" (Fig. 1B) until the awning is retracted completely.
NOte: The awning can be retracted without resetting the pitch.
Adjusting Pitch
NOte: The awning will pitch itself to purge the pooling of excess water and may dump a significant amount of
water without notice.
1.
Pitch can be set by adjusting the pitch arm to tip one side of the awning to allow water runoff.
2.
Extend the awning to desired position.
3.
Choose the side of the awning for optimum shade or convenient water runoff. Pull downward on the joint of the
pitch arm until desired pitch is set (Fig. 3) to allow for water runoff. Belleville washers and bolt (Fig. 3) allow for the
joint to remain in the position set by the operator.
4. If the pitch arm does not hold position, it can be tightened by adjusting the bolt (Fig. 3) in the center of
the joint.
NOte: Some awnings are equipped with a 2-position pitch arm (Fig.4). The 2-position arm can be set in the pitch
position or snapped into a straight position by pushing the release button (Fig.4A) and sliding the sleeve
(Fig.4B).
NOte: Do not push the joint of the pitch arm up past the point where the two sections are in line. This will put
tension on the gas strut, which can cause the strut to break.
NOte: The awning can be retracted without resetting the pitch.
