If you have any doubts, please measure the roof line of your caravan again before you take the new awning out of its original packing. In the Dorema brochure you can find out how to get the exact roofline measurement of the caravan. Please note that an awning taken out of its original packaging cannot be exchanged.
2. FRAME / INFLATABLE TUBES Your Dorema Air Awning is supplied with two types of Air tubes. The main tubes, fitted into the sleeve on the inner side of the Air awning, and the separate support tubes. Depending on the size of the Air awning 3, 4 or 5 main Air tubes are mounted in the covers and 4, 6 or 8 pieces roof support Air tubes are delivered.
Make sure the Air awning is square and do not put too much pressure on the pegging points. 3.4 The Futura 220 Air, Magnum 260 Air and Magnum Air Force 260 are equipped with 3 pre-assembled arch shaped inflatable air tubes and 4 separate inflatable roof bars.
ERECTING YOUR AIR AWNING 3.5 The valves of the arch shaped air tubes are located on the outside of the awning. Instead of the Futura Air All Season. The valves of the Futura Air All Season are located on the inside of the awning. Please ensure the air inflation valves are screwed on tightly (Finger tight) before inflating.
3.11 Annex For the models Magnum Air Force, Contura Air and Futura Air, there’s a possibility to have an extension, on the left, or right hand side. The extension can be connected with a zipper. The main tube of the extension can be inflated and you can peg it down. Contura Air en Futura Air Magnum Air Force Warning:...
ALWAYS secure the slider of the zip with a ty-rap. Your Dorema dealer can also supply all replacement parts. In case you do not have a repair patch available, a TEAR-AID repair patch type B can also be used.
6. DURING USE Air Awnings containing a high proportion of synthetic materials are sometimes affected by condensation. This should not be confused with leakage and can normally be cured by ensuring that adequate ventilation is available by making full use of the awnings ventilation or by leaving doorways slightly unzipped whenever possible.
7. CARE OF AWNING Awning Awning fabrics can be weakened by prolonged exposure to sunlight. Under normal holiday use your awning will give long service but used for extended periods in strong sunlight will soon cause deterioration. In those cases it would be wise to use a site as shaded as possible. UV degradation is not covered under the awnings warranty.
CARE OF AWNING For cleaning the awning you should, regardless of the type of material, always use clean water (approx. 30 degrees) and a sponge or soft brush. Do not use detergent at any time as this can seriously damage the waterproof qualities of the canvas.
CARE OF AWNING 7.5 Mildew Mildew caused by moist weather can be recognized by small brown spots which are found inside the canvas. In most cases this happens because a moist awning has been packed too long. Regardless of the type of the material the awning is made from, you always need to make sure that when an awning is packed wet, it is hung to dry within twenty-four hours and has the opportunity to dry properly.
8. EXPOSURE TO UV RADIATION Our inflatable tent line produced of TenCate material provides good protection against UV. Despite all the precautions, these materials can age when used under the influence of UV. Therefore, we recommend choosing a shady camping spot for your vacation. Most zippers are covered, which prevents premature aging and pollution.
9. STORING YOUR AIR AWNING After you have cleaned the Air awning completely, it is very important to store the canvas in a dry place. TIP: Prevent canvas and window material from getting into contact with materials which contain rubber or PVC such as: boots, cables, doormats, plastic covers or something similar.
