260 S, 260 L
Pressure loss test
1. Inflate the AIR Awning and close all isolation valves (fig. k 2, on page 7).
2. Wait a while and then check every AIR Pole for pressure loss.
3. In case of reduced pressure, check the AIR hoses (fig. k 1, on page 7).
4. Check that the collars (fig. k 4/5, on page 7) are done up tightly on the isolation valves. If there is still pressure loss,
then the AIR Pole has a puncture.
Reseating the isolation valves
The repeated folding, transporting, unfolding and setting up process can pull on the connection and loosen it. This is not a fault
with the AIR Awning but a procedure that may have to be performed from time to time.
1. Check the connections.
2. Inflate the awning to the specified pressure of 0,62 bar / 9 psi.
3. Close all isolation valves (fig. k 2, on page 7).
4. Check the pressure in the AIR Pole after some time!
If an AIR Pole has lost pressure, the seal (fig. k 3, on page 7) between one of the AIR hoses (fig. k 1, on page 7)
and the isolation valves (fig. k 2, on page 7) may have loosened.
5. Identify the affected AIR Pole or the isolation valves.
NOTE:
There may be more than one defective isolation valve.
6. Keep the isolation valve closed. Unscrew the collar (fig. k 4/5, on page 7) completely on the deflated side of the AIR
Pole valve.
7. Make sure that the AIR hose (fig. k 1, on page 7) is fully pushed onto the isolation valve (fig. k 2, on page 7).
8. Slide the conical washer (fig. k 3, on page 7) upwards in the direction of the screw thread on the isolation valve.
NOTE:
The conical washer with the smaller diameter must face the collar (fig. k 3/4, on page 7).
9. Screw the collar (fig. k 4/5, on page 7) onto the isolation valve (fig. k 2, on page 7).
10. Hand tighten the collar (fig. k 4/5, on page 7) and tighten another half turn with the plastic wrench.
11. Repeat this procedure for all other isolation valves at the AIR Poles.
12. Open all isolation valves inside the awning.
13. Inflate the AIR Awning to the correct pressure.

8.3 Repair or replace an AIR Pole

Have repairs only carried out by an authorized specialist company or by your dealer. Repairs and modifications by an unauthori-
zed company may invalidate your warranty.
CAUTION!
Risk of injury from bursting AIR Poles!
Never open the zipper of the protective cover (fig. l 4, on page 7) while an AIR Pole is inflated.
• Deflate the air from the AIR Poles first.
1. Close the isolation valves (fig. l 3, on page 7).
2. Open the zipper of the outer sleeve (fig. l 5, on page 7).
3. Loosen the collar (fig. l 2, on page 7) on the affected side of the isolation valve (fig. l 3, on page 7).
4. Loosen the AIR hose (fig. l 1, on page 7) on the affected side of the isolation valve (fig. l 3, on page 7).
NOTE:
There can be several valves per AIR Pole.
5. Cut off the small cable-tie. Open the zipper of the protective cover (fig. l 4, on page 7) to get to the bladder
(fig. l 6, on page 7).
6. Remove the bladder (fig. l 6, on page 7) carefully.
