Retractable Awning Safety Guidelines
Intended function of your awning:
Retractable awnings are extended over open spaces to shade
them from unwanted sunlight. Your awning is not designed to
provide all weather protection.
Do not hang any additional loads on the awning
Do not place any additional load onto the awning such as
standing, climbing, hanging loads or anchoring the awning. This
causes additional stress to the awning and structure.
Do not alter the awning
Any alterations such as attaching items or rebuilding can cause
damage to the awning and structure and therefore require the
written permission of the manufacturer. Failure to comply will void
the awning’s warranty.
Excessive windy conditions
Awnings are intended to provide solar shading and can only
width-stand light winds. A good rule of thumb is, if it is too
uncomfortable to sit outside, do not use the awning. The awning
will break, fall, or get damaged during wind and can become
dangerous debris. Always retract the awning during windy
conditions. Rollac is not responsible for any wind damage.
Operation in cold climates, frost, snow
Do not operate the awning during frost as it may cause damage
to the fabric and mechanics. Wait until the awning is defrosted,
then it can be used again. Your retractable awning is not
designed to carry any snow loads. If there is a risk of frost or
snow, make sure to retract the awning beforehand and move it in
its safe position.
If there is a risk of snow or frost, make sure that all automatic
controls possibly moving the awning outwards are turned
off. Automatic controls moving the awning outwards are sun
sensors.
Remove obstacles in the path of the awning during operation.
Make sure that there are no persons or obstacles in the path of
the awning, especially during opening and closing operation.
Do not touch moving parts
Never put your ngers into moving parts, such as the awnings
arm joints.
Avoid unintended use of awning
Make sure the awning is only operated by trained and instructed
personnel. Limit the access and keep remote controls and
switches out of reach of children.
Switch off all automatic control when away
Switch off all automatic control in the winter or when away from
home. Examples for an automatic control can be sun sensors,
timers, or integration into home automation.
Heat under the awning
Never expose the awning fabric to intense heat such as using
a grill under the awning. This may cause a potential re hazard.
Make sure to use any grills or re away from the awning.
Debris
Before closing the awning, make sure there is no debris such
as leaves or twigs that might roll into the awning. Also, check for
debris within the cassette or arms.
Wind / Windy Conditions
Awnings are not designed to withstand heavy wind loads. Do
not use your awning when high wind conditions are present.
Be proactive and check weather forcasts regarding potential
heavy winds. Leave your awning retracted when high winds are
expected. Rollac is not responsible for damage caused by windy
conditions, and will not warranty and damages caused by wind.
Raining / wet conditions
Although your awning is designed to shed water, awning fabric
can potentially collect water in rainy conditions. Awnings must
be retracted in rainy conditions to prevent damage from water
weight. Rollac is not responsible for damage due to rain.
Wet awning cover
If your fabric gets wet, extend the awning to let the awning cover
dry.
Information about your retractable awning cover:
Rollac uses only material for your awning covers that are suitable
for long term outdoor use. Your awning cover has undergone
numerous quality checks. Nonetheless, some characteristics of
the awning may appear as a defect but are standard and the
result of technical limitations. They do not limit the function of the
awning in any way.
Undulation / Creasing
Because the fabric is double stitched and thicker on and around
the fabric seams, the cover shows undulation or creasing around
the seam.
Awnings with center support
Very wide retractable awnings require a center support. This
increases wear and tear on the fabric, especially around the
center support.
Weight of cover
Given the weight of the fabric, it is not completely possible to
eliminate a certain degree of sagging. However, this will have no
negative impact on the functionality of your awning.
Note - awning operation should only be performed by persons familiar with the operating and safety instructions.

Awning Operation
Motorized Systems
If your awning is motorized, it is either controlled via a wall
switch or a remote control. Optional, automatic controls
such as sun sensors are available.
Important Note Motorized Awning
Due to the design, the motor has
a maximum power-on time of four
minutes. If the power-on time is
exceeded, i.e. due to frequent
retracting and extending of the
awning – the internal thermal
protector might cause the motor to
turn off automatically.
In this case, please wait until the motor has cooled
down (depending on outside temperature, this may take
approximately 15 – 20 min) and is ready for operation again.
Optional: Use of emergency manual override
If your awning is motorized, it might be equipped with a
manual override. The manual override is only to be used
in emergency situations such as power outages. It is not
intended for long term use.
Manual awning usage
If you use a gear operated awning make
sure to never force the awning. If you feel
resistance, locate the cause, or call your Rollac
awning dealer.
Vario Volant – Manual Drop Valance
The Vario Volant is optional and is a drop
valance that is integrated into the front bar. The
drop valance is raised and lowered via a gear
system and allows to adapt the valance to
various sun angles.

Awning Cleaning and Maintenance
To prolong the life of your awning, we recommend service
and maintenance at least twice a year. If your awning is in
need of repair, please contact your Rollac Awning Dealer.
Do not repair or perform service work by non authorized
personnel.
SAFEY NOTE:
BEFORE DOING SERVICE OR MAINTENANCE – ALWAYS
DISCONNECT POWER FROM THE AWNING
Lubrication of moveable parts
It is recommended that you use dry lubricants containing
Teon, PTFE or similar. Do not use oil or WD40. We
recommend lubricating of moveable parts twice a year. Find
the typical lubrication points below.
Check for wear and tear
The awning should be checked regularly for signs of wear
or damage to the parts under tension and the frame.
Should any damage be discovered, the professional dealer
or servicing company should be called to carry out the
repair.
Cleaning aluminum elements
Clean the aluminum elements with a light detergent and
warm water.
Debris
Make sure there is no debris build up, especially when the
awning hasn’t been in use for longer periods of time. Debris
includes twigs or leaves.
Cleaning the awning fabric
For your awning fabric, Rollac uses the Sunbrella design
collection which is of high quality. These fabrics are specically
designed for outdoor use. Please refer to the Sunbrella Awning
Care and Cleaning Instructions in this manual.
Please make sure that all power is turned off when cleaning
the fabric and follow safety procedures.
g 1. Front Bar
g 2. Arm Bracket Joint
g 3. Center Joint

When it’s time for a thorough cleaning, Sunbrella fabrics can be cleaned
while still on an awning frame or, size permitting, they can be removed to
aid in the cleaning of stubborn stains or for professional cleaning.
GENERAL OR LIGHT CLEANING
To clean Sunbrella while still on an awning frame:
• Brush off loose dirt.
• Hose down.
• Prepare a cleaning solution of water and mild soap
such as Woolite or Dawn dishwashing liquid.
• Use a soft bristle brush to clean.
• Allow cleaning solution to soak into the fabric.
• Rinse thoroughly until all soap residue is removed.
• Air dry.
• May not require re-treatment depending on the age of the fabric.
If stubborn stains persist, you can use a diluted bleach/soap mixture
for spot cleaning of mildew. For roof run-off or other similar stains a
strong degreaser may be required (see our Stain Chart for specic
recommendations).
www.sunbrella.com/stainchart
HEAVY CLEANING FOR STUBBORN STAINS AND MILDEW
Sunbrella fabrics do not promote mildew growth, however, mildew may
grow on dirt and other foreign substances that are not removed from the
fabric. To clean stubborn stains:
• Prepare a solution of 1 cup of bleach and 1/4
cup mild soap per gallon of clean water.
• Allow mixture to soak into fabric for up to 15 minutes.
• Clean with soft bristle brush. (Note: This step should
be avoided when cleaning the coated side (Back
side) of Sunbrella Plus, Supreme, or Clarity.)
• Rinse thoroughly until all soap residue is removed.
• Air dry.
• Repeat if necessary.
• Re-treatment of fabric for water and stain resistance
will be necessary after using bleach solution.
Note: Use caution when cleaning the coated (underside) of
Sunbrella Plus, Supreme, or Clarity with the recommended bleach
solution. The coated side of the fabric should only be sprayed
with the recommended bleach solution and rinsed thoroughly.
Remember to protect the area around your Sunbrella if using a bleach
solution. Carpet or other fabrics that are not Sunbrella may have an
adverse reaction to the bleach.
RE-TREATING THE FABRIC
As part of the nishing process, Sunbrella fabrics are treated with a
uorocarbon nish, which enhances water repellency. This nish is de-
signed to last for several years, but must be replenished after a thorough
cleaning. Based on test results, Glen Raven®recommends 303®Fabric
Guard™ as the preferred re-treatment product for Sunbrella fabrics.
Fabrics should be re-treated after thorough cleaning or as needed.
For more information on re-treatment products, please visit
www.303products.com.
APPLYING 303 FABRIC GUARD
303 should be applied to Sunbrella fabrics after each thorough cleaning,
which typically removes the original nish and reduces the fabric’s water
repellency.
• Clean Sunbrella fabric, using one of the cleaning methods.
• Allow Sunbrella to completely air dry.
• Apply 303 Fabric Guard in a well ventilated area
following instructions on the container.
• Apply 303 in a thin, even coat and allow fabric to dry completely.
• Apply a second thin, even coating of 303. (Two light
coatings are more effective in restoring fabric water
resistance than a single heavy coating.)
Note: A 16-ounce bottle provides coverage of up to 75-100 square
feet of fabric depending on material and application method.
PROFESSIONAL AWNING CLEANERS
You may have access to professional awning cleaning rms. In evaluat-
ing the services of a professional rm, you should inquire about a rm’s
experience in working with Sunbrella fabrics and knowledge of cleaning
and re-treatment requirements.
HELPFUL HINTS
Protect the area around the Sunbrella fabric when using a bleach solution
– bleach may discolor non-Sunbrella fabrics. Always rinse Sunbrella
thoroughly to completely remove bleach.
Please be aware of the environment when cleaning with bleach. Bleach
can have harmful effects on the natural environment around you. We
do not advise using bleach if you are surrounded by a body of water or
other environment that could be affected.
Sunbrella should only be allowed to air dry.
Use of bleach and/or advanced age of the fabric application may impact
the deterioration of the sewing thread and other
non-Sunbrella components.

AWNINGS
CARE AND CLEANING
One of the best ways to keep Sunbrella®fabrics looking good is to hose fabrics off on a monthly basis with clear water. This helps
prevent dirt from becoming deeply embedded in the fabric and eliminates the need for more frequent vigorous cleaning. In most
environments, a thorough cleaning will be needed every two to three years.
