General Care And Usage Instructions - Westfield PREMIUM-Serie Bedienungsanleitung

The main seams of this awning are taped to ensure water protection. These can become damaged over time but can
be repaired and resealed by using seam sealer. For the bestresults, we recommend contacting your dealer to find
out which products to use.
UV degradation causes the material to go brittle, fade or change color. The time it takes to do this will differ depen-
ding upon how often you use it and what the weather is like when you do. It is a natural process which affects all
materials used outdoors. This awning is coated to help prevent this process, but it does not stop it, it only helps slow
it down. You can help protect against this degradation by regular care and proofing of the awning. The awning
should be regularly cleaned and reproofed to ensure that mold and mildew do not build up and damage the
awning. After cleaning your awning, you should always reproof the awning as cleaning the awning will damage
the UV coating on the material. For the best results, we recommend contacting your dealer to find out which pro-
ducts to use. Weathering due to excessive UV degradation is not covered by the warranty.
All coated, non-breathing materials suffer from condensation. The amount of condensation depends upon the weat-
her conditions and the environment (such as wet ground etc.). During condensation, water can collect on the fabric
of the awning. If enough condensation forms this can run down the awning and drip off seams or any other stitching
point. It can be lessened by ventilation. Ventilating your awning allows air to flow though the awning and lessens
the buildup of condensation. Condensation is often mistaken for leaking and is not a reason for complaint or a fault
of the awning.
This awning is designed for private and non-commercial use. This air awning is not for permanent or for seasonal
site use. The warranty does not cover this. In case of storms or snowfall, the awning must be taken down to avoid
damage.
Please store your awning dry. If you must take your awning down when it is wet, you must unpack it within a week
and allow it to dry out before packing it away. This is to ensure that mold and mildew do not build up as this can
lead to damage on your awning and is not covered under your warranty. To clean this awning, we recommend
using a specific tent or awning cleaner or just water and a soft cleaning cloth. Heavy soiling should be allowed to
dry and brushed with a soft brush beforehand. After cleaning your awning, you should always reproof it as the UV
coating on your awning could be damaged during cleaning. For the best results, we recommend contacting your
dealer to find out which products to use.
