tighten all fasteners. Periodically clean the awning fabric and arms.
How to clean awning fabric
Monthly, flush off the awning fabric with clean water and thoroughly clean the
fabric with a soft brush and warm water every one or two years. Note: When you
clean the fabric only use natural soap and clean water and make sure ALL of
the cleaners is rinsed off after cleaning.
Never use detergent, oil-based cleaners, or any caustic, granulate, or
abrasive type cleaners.

storage.
In warm weather, open it up for a period of time to minimize wrinkling. Leave
the awning open during warm weather to minimize wrinkling over time.

- DO NOT use insecticides or other sprays near the awning fabric. These could cause stains and could adversely affect the fabric’s ability to repel water.
- DO NOT expose the awning to adverse environmental conditions, corrosive agents, or other harmful conditions. In the event of high winds, storms, and other adverse weather conditions, roll up your awning to protect it from these conditions.
- NEVER close the awning for storage when wet. The combination of moisture and dirt could result in mildew, discoloration, and stains. If it is necessary to roll up the awning while it’s wet, make sure you roll it out and let it dry as soon as possible before rolling it up again.
- DO NOT allow dirt, leaves, or other debris to accumulate on the awning, as this could cause abrasion and stains. Mildew could grow on dirt and organic debris, causing permanent discoloration, stains, and odors to awning fabric.
