Cleaning And Care - Hornbach 10252573 Manuel D'installation Et D'utilisation

IV. Cleaning and care
Fabric
Awning fabric is a high quality product mostly made
from acrylic or polyester fibres (according to the
declared properties). It will maintain its quality for
years, if a few requirements are observed.
The local environment has a huge impact on the
cleaning frequency. Dry environments require less
cleaning than humid ones. The fabric can be cleaned
as required, but a general cleaning should be carried
out every year and at warm and dry weather.
Procedure:
1. Open the awning completely.
2. Remove loose dirt and debris.
3. Spray the fabric with water using pressure washer
or a garden hose.
4. Let the fabric air dry, do not apply heat.
5. Close the awning.
FABRIC INFORMATION
Due to its functional requirements and production
methods, awning fabric has specific characteristics
that do not affect the quality of the fabric or reduce
its suitability for use.
• Ruffles (1): similar to herringbone and mainly occurs
at the joints and wrappings of fabric (double
thickness of fabric).
• Chalk effects (2): visible as light stripes, can occur
during production.
• Creases (3): wrinkles formed by the folding of
uneven fabric around the winding tube.
• Dropped edges (4): a twist at the edges due to the
high tension located around these latter.
The above imperfections are a consequence
of natural characteristics of the fabric. They
cannot be the basis for complains, since they
are typical for awning fabrics and do not
influence the comfort of use.

The awning is a solar shield. It is not designed for rain
protection purposes. Rain resistance for a light and
short rain is given for impregnated, water repellent
fabrics if the pitch angle of the awning is 15° or more.
In stronger or prolonged rain, the awning must be
closed in order to avoid damage. Wet closed awnings
should be opened as soon as possible in order to dry
thoroughly.
Frame
The frame is made of powder coated aluminium
components. The rest of the hardware is made of
corrosion-resistant materials. Over time, dust and dirt
will collect on the frame and will require periodic
cleaning. Use water and a soft clean cloth to clean the
frame components one a year.
Remote control battery
The adequate battery for the remote control is the
CR2032 (3V, 225mAh).
Insert the battery under the lid of the remote control
(pay attention to the polarity – and +) and close the
lid again.
