8.3 Checking
!
WARNING!
Do not use the awning if any settings or maintenance work are required.
If you discover any damage, please contact a service partner in the
respective country (see addresses on the back of the manual).
➤ Check the awning regularly for any imbalance and wear, as well as damage to
major parts.
➤ Check the awning regularly:
– Is the fabric free of damage?
– Are the arms and lead rail free of damage with no signs of wear?
– Does the awning close properly?
8.4 Tighten up the screws on the rear hinge
The screws on the rear hinge must be re-tightened after being subjected to a load for
the first time:
• after the first holiday using the awning
• after driving 20,000 km or six months after the awning was installed
(whichever occurs first)
The screws on the rear hinge also need to be checked during the routine vehicle
inspection.
Contact your service partner to re-tighten the screws.
Instructions for servicing (fig. n, page 11)
A
NOTICE!
The awning arms must not bear any load. This is to prevent the fastening
torque of the screws from being distorted.
➤ Lift up the lead rail slightly so that the hinge is not bearing any load.
➤ Tighten the screws with 15 – 25 Nm.
