This is how you set up your awning
For those of you who have also purchased an awning for your roof tent , follow these steps to set it up:
1. Lift the transport cover off your roof tent and pull it out of the strip it sits in.
2. In the same strip, thread the awning, the side that has a blue hard edge (the same as the transport cover).
3. Then unfold the roof tent. Fold the ladder and fasten with the strap.
4. Set up the roof over the steps (abside) of the roof tent using the aluminum frame.
5. Attach the awning to the roof tent using the zip that goes from the left side of the part of the base plate that is outside the car roof and further around the apse.
6. Tighten the walls using the straps located at the bottom of the awning and the tent pegs.
