USER INSTRUCTIONS
Read these user instructions carefully. No guarantee will be allowed for wrong use.
Warranty
•
The warranty for the Thule Omnistor awning to the original buyer is two years from date of
invoice.
•
The warranty covers replacement of parts arising from defects and from the inability of the awning
to perform its intended function.
•
In case of a defect, consult your dealer with original invoice.
•
Defects, which in our judgment occur from misuse, negligence or accident, are not covered by the
warranty. In addition, the warranty does not apply if the product is installed or handled improperly
or if the awning has been altered in any way or has been repaired by unqualified persons, or if the
serial number and/or date has been altered or removed.
•
Should the original buyer wish to return to us parts believed to be defective, the parts should be
sent prepaid. If we find the parts defective and covered by warranty, they will be repaired and
returned. If warranty does not apply or has expired, a nominal charge will be made. Any transport
costs are for the owner's account.
•
Returned goods should be in solid wrapping.
•
No other warranty is given and no representative is authorised to give any warranty or assume
liability by words or action under any warranty other than that is contained herein.
•
This warranty is expressly in lieu of any other expressed or implied warranty of whatever nature
and expressly excludes any other or further liability.

General remarks

•
Installation must be carried out by a qualified person.
•
Check if you have a solid back ground for installation of the adapters of the awning. Fixation must
be carried out by bolts and nuts and counterplate and by preference also cleaved with SIKA 252.
Contact your dealer or manufacturer of the vehicle. Before drilling, be sure that there is no
obstacle at the inside (for example electric cables, gas pipes and so on).
•
The adapters must support the awning at the awnings spring arms for a correct and stable
mounting. When this is not possible use a full length adapter.
•
In order to get a watertight installation, use acid free silicone or SIKA 221 to fill up the drilled holes.
•
In order not to damage the fabric when drilling the box, unroll the awning completely and put the
support arms so that the fabric is horizontal.
•
For the mounting height of the bottom mounting brackets ask your dealer or manufacturer.
•
An awning is a sun and not an all-weather protection.
The awning should be closed in case of storm, snow or heavy rain fall (avoid formation of a water
pocket).
Precautions
In rainy or windy conditions:
•
Lower one side of the awning in such a way that the water can run down the fabric.
•
Tighten the tension arms.
•
Fix the support arms.
•
Eventually install a Thule Hold Down Side Strap Kit.
•
Eventually install a curved tension rafter in the middle to avoid water bags.
•
The fabric should not be rolled up wet and stored for long periods.
Maintenance
•
Only clean the fabric with water or Thule PVC Cleaner.
•
Put on a regulary base, silicon oil on the hinge between the arm and the front profile.
