Electrical connection and adjustment of motors should be performed according to the motor manufacturer’s
manual added to the product,
Pay attention to the correct position of the power cable at the entrance to the product so that the water may be
drained and flow down the cable.
Incorrect connection of the motor can lead to product damage or create a hazardous situation.
The motors have thermal switches that turn off the drive after a few minutes of continuous
operation to protect against overheating. After switching off by the thermal protection, wait an
appropriate time depending on the type of motor and ambient temperature (several minutes) to be
able to restart it.
Remote operation programming (assigning remote control appliances, weather sensors and other operation elements)
should be performed according to the manufacturer’s manual added to the product. The method of using the motors is
included in a separate instruction manual, as well as on the manufacturer's website.
The product may be damaged if the central control does not function properly. An interruption in the
power supply or a failure of the installation may cause the central control to malfunction.
Awning motors are not designed for continuous operation. The integrated overheating protection shuts
down the motor after a few minutes of continuous operation. The motor restarts after several minutes.

When the awning starts working attention should be paid to:
Correct rolling down and up of the fabric
Correct activation of limit switches
Self-regulation of extreme position by an untrained person may lead to product damage.
4.7 MANUAL DRIVE
Awning opening is performed by making enough turns with the crank until the arms are opened, keeping the fabric tension.
Awning closure –by turning the crank until gentle resistance is felt.
Gears 11:1 are not equipped with overturn protection (so called mechanical end stop).
During operation of awning with manual drive the force working on the crank is multiplied by gear mechanism and putting
too much force can lead to fabric damage, especially when closing the awning.
Do not allow the fabric to be rolled in the opposite direction (from the bottom of roller tube), since it may cause its ripping
off the roller tube, fabric damage or incorrect awning functioning.
