and secured with toggle and loop fixings. When
closing any of the doors ensure that the zips are
fully secured and the protective flap is in place
and secured by the velcro tabes to prevent
water ingress. When not in use doors should
also be fully pegged.
AIR ROOF BAR (325 Air only)
Inflate the roof bar and position in the centre of
the awning by matching the roof bar velcro ends
to the velcro sewn in panels in your awning.
WEATHER SKIRT
Ensure the awning’s skirt is also correctly
positioned and secured by awning pegs. Failure
to do this may result in water ingress.
SAFETY
The awning fabric use by SunnCamp is fire
retardant to British Standard and whilst fire
retardant it is not fire proof and therefore you
must not smoke or use a naked flame in or near
the awning. This includes traditional ‘camp
fires’. Guy ropes/awning pegs should be
marked so they are not a trip hazard.
SAFETY WARNING: BBQ’S/GAS
APPLIANCES
Your awning has a sewn in label warning
against CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING.
Please be aware of carbon monoxide poisoning
and do not under any circumstances use or
leave a used BBQ (even if you think it is still not
burning) in your awning or tent.
CLEANING, STORING & REPAIRS
Cleaning: The inside and the outside of your
awning should only be cleaned using fresh
clean water and a damp cloth. Do not use
detergents or chemical cleaners.
Storing: Your awning is best stored packed in
its original carry bag (spare bags are available
to purchase through your SunnCamp stockist).
Please note however that if the awning is taken
down when wet, you must thoroughly dry the
awning as soon as possible prior to storing.
After a wet take down, re-erect your awning as
soon as possible to allow the flysheet, guy
ropes etc to fully dry naturally before storing
away. If stored when the flysheet and/or guy
ropes are wet, the awning will suffer from
mildew and will become unusable. Please note
that damage caused by incorrect storage is not
covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
The air valve’s body must always be left
unscrewed from the tubes when packing away
your awning. Please refer to the section headed
‘VALVES’. Replacement valves are available to
purchase from your SunnCamp stockist.
Repairs: Repairs to your awning should only be
made by the manufacturer’s recommended
agents. Repairs made by an unauthorised third
party will make the manufacturer’s warranty
void.
STORM AND WEATHER SUITABILITY
This awning is designed for light use in normal
weather conditions. It is not suitable for storms,
gales and sub zero or tropical conditions.
UV DETERIORATION
Prolonged exposure to sunlight can weaken the
fabric of the awning. To avoid the risk of UV
deterioration, site the awning in a shaded area
where it will be protected from exposure to
strong sunlight.
MOISTURE
Moisture collecting on the inside of your
awning’s fabric is condensation caused by the
occupier(s). IT IS NOT A SIGN OF LEAKAGE.
Please note condensation and damage caused
by condensation is not covered by the
manufacturer’s warranty.
SEAMS
Your awning has all of its main seams hot air
taped to help prevent leakage. The remaining
seams should be treated with a seam sealant to
maximize the awnings weatherproofing. Seam
sealant is available to purchase from your
SunnCamp stockist.
VALVES
Please note that the valves used on this product
rely on a good air seal which can fail if left
under compression whilst in storage. To reduce
the chance of valve malfunction, the valves
should be fully unscrewed when the product is
in storage. Replacement valves are available to
purchase from your SunnCamp stockist.
INFLATABLE BLADDERS
Please note that an emergency repair patch is
enclosed with your tent/awning for emergency
repairs to small holes. If you over inflate your
bladder, it may explode and this will not be
repairable. Spare bladders with full instructions
are available to purchase from your SunnCamp
stockist.
DISMANTLING
To deflate the tubes, turn the valve’s air release
collar anti clockwise to allow the air to escape.
The release collar will remain attached by a
plastic tab. Please note that un-pegging can be
carried out before, during or after deflation.
When you have fully un-pegged the awning,
slide the beading from the caravan’s awning
channel. The awning should be carefully rolled
prior to placing it back in the carry bag.
DO NOT refit the valve before storing. Please
refer to the section ‘storing’ for more
information.
AIR PRESSURE MAINTENANCE
Changing atmospheric conditions can make air
tubes appear to lose or gain pressure. This is
commonly caused by a rising or lowering in
ambient temperature. Should this occur, the
tube will simply require either a top up or
release of excess pressure. It should not be
considered a sign of leakage or puncture.
IF THE TEMPERATURE DROPS AND YOUR
AWNING HAS LOST PRESSURE, PLEASE BE
AWARE THAT WHEN THE TEMPERATURE
RISES AGAIN THE PRESSURE IN THE
TUBES WILL INCREASE. IF NOT
MONITORED THIS MAY CAUSE YOUR
BLADDER TO RUPTURE WHICH IS NOT
COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
Where a leak is suspected, you should firstly
inspect the valve to ensure that no parts are
cross threaded and that the air seals are in
good condition and tight. Removing the valve
then re-fitting and re-inflating may help. If you
discover that a valve is damaged or faulty or a
bladder has developed a leak, spares are
available to purchase from your SunnCamp
stockist.
WARRANTY
Please refer to the separate warranty sheet that
is enclosed with your Tent/Awning.
