PW3800 Safety instructions
11
•Retract the awning if strong winds, heavy rain or snowfall are
imminent.
•Make sure that water or snow does not accumulate on the fabric.
Otherwise this could damage the awning or the awning arms could
collapse and cause severe or fatal injury.
•Do not approach the awning
– if it was left open during heavy winds
– if pools of water have formed on it
– if snow has accumulated on it
– if any debris is on the awning fabric.
The awning may move unexpectedly, become unstable and bend or
break off.
•With optional motor: If the connection cable of the awning is
damaged, it must be replaced by an expert.
•With optional motor: Disconnect the power supply by means of the
on/off switch before you clean the vehicle in the vicinity of the awning
or the awning itself.
•Do not leave the extended awning unattended. Retract the awning
before leaving your site.
•Keep a safe distance away from the awning when having barbecues or
open fires. The fabric can be damaged by heat or catch fire.
•This device can be used by children aged 8 years or over, as wellas by
persons with diminished physical, sensory or mental capacities or a
lack of experience and knowledge, providing they are supervised or
have been taught how to use the device safely and are aware of the
resulting risks.
•With optional motor: Electrical devices are not toys.
Keep the remote control out of the reach of children. Prevent children
from playing with the wall switch (accessory).
•Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
device.
ANOTICE!
•Park the motor home or caravan at a site where debris (branches,
leaves or similar) cannot fall onto the fabric.
•The fabric of the awning should not hang down at the edges, and must
remain taut at all times. If the fabric hangs down, it could rub against
the arms and become damaged.
The fabric used for long awnings should not sag in the middle.

•Only retract the awning when the fabric is free of debris (branches,
leaves or similar). Otherwise the awning may be damaged when it is
retracted.
•Keep the awning free of dirt to prevent abrasions, stains and mildew.
•Only retract the awning if it is wet for safety reasons. Extend it again as
soon as possible. Otherwise, mildew or stains can form or the colour
may fade.
•Never bend down an awning arm or the cover to drain water off the
awning. This can bend the awning and impair its function.
•Do not hang any objects on the awning, on the front cover or the
awning arms.
•Do not use any sprays (e. g. insect repellent, hairspray) near the
awning. This will soil the fabric or the water-repellent effect of the
fabric will be lost.
•If there is insufficient space above the door after the awning is
mounted, the door must remained closed when retracting or
extending to avoid the door making contact with the arms or the lead
rail.
The required space depends on the design of the door (door width,
swing or sliding door) as well as the set awning angle of inclination.

I
➤Adjust the nut until the awning is in the desired inclination angle (fig. 41,
page 4).
NOTICE!
•Only retract the awning when the fabric is free of debris (branches,
leaves or similar). Otherwise the awning may be damaged when it is

7.5 Setting up the struts
Putting up the struts
➤Push the right strut in the front cover together so that you can move it freely
(fig. 5, page 5).
➤Turn the right strut to the side (fig. 5, page 5).
➤Fold the right strut down and set it on the ground (fig. 6, page 5).
➤Adjust the strut to the required height (fig. 7, page 6).
➤Fold the lever for the strut up to secure the struts (fig. 8, page 6).
➤Extend the other strut in the same way.
Positioning the struts on the ground
!
➤Position the struts vertically underneath the lead rail.
➤Secure the struts with pegs (fig. 9, page 6).
➤Position one of the struts slightly lower so that thelead rail hangs at an angle. This
allows rain to run off more easily (fig. 0, page 7).
Securing the struts on the vehicle
You can secure the awning on your vehicle directly if you have already mounted the
latches for the struts.
➤Slide the cover of the latch up (fig. a, page 7).
➤Fit the struts into the latch (fig. a, page 7).
➤Slide the cover of the latch down (fig. a, page 7).
➤Position one of the struts slightly lower so that thelead rail hangs at an angle. This
allows rain to run off more easily (fig. b, page 7).
Putting in the struts
➤Loosen the struts from the fastenings (pegs or latches on the vehicle).
➤Fold the lever of the right strut down to loosen the struts.
WARNING! Beware of injury
•Only position the struts on solid ground.
•Secure the struts from slipping.

8 Cleaning and maintenance
8.1 Cleaning
A
➤Remove any debris (twigs, leaves or similar) lying on the awning fabric to prevent
abrasions, stains and mildew. The awning can also be damaged when it is
retracted.
➤Clean the awning fabric regularly to remove any dirt and dust:
– To do this, use water with 30 ml detergent and 30 ml bleach for 10 litres of
water.
– Soap down the fabric and leave the liquid to soak in for five minutes.
– Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Make sure that the detergent with the bleach is completely washed off.
Otherwise it can damage the fabric.
– Leave the fabric to dry.
I
8.2 Lubricating
➤If required, lubricate the joints of the awning with paraffin wax, teflon oil or
silicone oil.
8.3 Checking
!
NOTICE! Beware of damage.
•Never clean the awning with a high-pressure cleaner.
•Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or hard objects during cleaning,
as these can damage the product.
NOTE
The manufacturer recommends:
To clean the cloth, use the Dometic awning cleaner
(ref. no. 9600000165, available from your service partner).
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).
PW3800-O-16s.book Seite 19 Donnerstag, 12. April 2018 3:13 15

EN
Cleaning and maintenance PW3800
20
➤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 must be checked during the routine vehicle inspection.
Contact your service partner to re-tighten the screws.
Instructions for servicing (fig. g, page 8)
A
➤Lift up the lead rail slightly so that the hinge is not bearing any load.
➤Tighten the screws with 15 – 25 Nm.
8.5 Patching small holes in the fabric
You can patch any small holes in the fabric or parts where the coating has come off:
➤Use a cotton cloth to rub around the damaged area with a small amount of liquid
vinyl plaster (ref. no. 9103104018, available from your service partner).
✓The liquid vinyl plaster dissolves the coating. The coating seals the hole when it
dries.
➤Wait until the area is dry before you retract the awning again.
NOTICE!
The awning arms must not bear any load. This is to prevent the fastening
torque of the screws from being distorted.
