OEM INSTALLATION MANUAL

Rev: 09.28.22 Page 2 CCD-0006512
Introduction
The Stargazer Spirit XTR Acrylic Window Skylight can be installed on the roof of a unit to provide ventilation
and allow sunshine in while providing privacy. The inner screen frame options allow for different types
of ventilation and guards against pests. The inner screen assembly is a combination of a flyscreen and shade
for windows that can be pulled across the skylight opening by hand using the two different profiles.
The integrated spring shaft tensions the fabric permanently and gives optimum hold. The Stargazer Spirit
XTR Acrylic Window Skylight is positioned front to rear of unit and is designed for a flat interior roof. For
