This diagram illustrates the key dimensions of the awning, including its width, projection, and adjustable height range.

  1. Prepare the Location: Choose a suitable location on your balcony or patio. Ensure there is enough space for the awning (150 cm width, 120 cm projection) and that the ceiling/floor can support the telescopic poles. The adjustable height range is between 200 cm and 300 cm.
  2. Assemble the Main Awning Unit: Attach the awning fabric and roller tube to the main support bar. Ensure it is securely fastened according to the included hardware.
  3. Attach Telescopic Poles: Insert the telescopic support poles into the designated slots on the main awning unit. Ensure the top and bottom end caps are firmly attached to the poles. These caps provide stability without requiring drilling.
  4. Position the Awning: Place the assembled awning in your desired location. Extend the telescopic poles by twisting and pulling them until they firmly press against the ceiling and floor. Use the adjustment knobs to secure the height. Ensure the awning is level and stable.
  5. Attach the Crank Handle: Connect the crank handle to the designated mechanism on the side of the awning.

4. Operating Instructions

The Relaxdays Balcony Awning is designed for easy manual operation.

This video demonstrates the smooth operation of the Relaxdays Balcony Awning, showing how it extends and retracts with the crank handle.

  1. Extending the Awning: Turn the crank handle clockwise to extend the awning fabric. Continue turning until the awning reaches your desired projection (up to 120 cm).
  2. Retracting the Awning: Turn the crank handle counter-clockwise to retract the awning fabric. Continue turning until the awning is fully rolled up against the main support bar.
  3. Adjusting the Angle: The angle of the awning can be adjusted by loosening the side fasteners on the support arms, setting the desired angle, and then re-tightening the fasteners.

5. Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life of your awning.

  • Cleaning the Fabric: Clean the polyester fabric with a soft brush and mild soapy water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow it to air dry completely before retracting. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Cleaning the Frame: Wipe the steel frame with a damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. Dry thoroughly to prevent rust.
  • Lubrication: Periodically apply a silicone-based lubricant to the moving parts of the crank mechanism to ensure smooth operation.
  • Winter Storage: For prolonged periods of non-use, especially during winter, it is recommended to retract the awning and store it in a dry, protected area to prevent damage from extreme weather.

6. Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

  • Awning not extending/retracting smoothly: Check if the crank mechanism is clean and lubricated. Ensure there are no obstructions in the path of the fabric or the support arms.
  • Awning feels unstable: Re-check the tightness of the telescopic poles against the ceiling and floor. Ensure all fasteners are secure. The poles should be adjusted to their maximum stable extension within the 200-300 cm range.
  • Fabric sagging: Ensure the support arms are correctly positioned and tightened to maintain tension on the fabric.
