Lippert Components Solera Power Awning Bedienungsanleitung
System Information
The Solera® Power Awning features an internal motor to steadily operate the awning. Additionally, the
friction joint allows for rain dump and adjustable pitch features, and there is no rafter arm to lock in place.
The friction joint also provides added stability.
This manual provides operational procedures for Solera® Power Awning. Operating the Solera® Power
Awning in any other manner than described may result in personal injury, damage to the recreational
vehicle or the awning assembly as well as voiding the Lippert Components Limited Warranty.
Operation
NOTE: Some coaches may not use the LCI switch (Fig. 3).
Extending the Awning
1. Verify the RV battery is fully charged and connected to the electrical system.
2. Locate the locking latch (Fig. 1), if equipped, and unlock the latch (Fig. 2).
NOTE: This latch is optional and may or may not be installed on one or both support arms.
3. Press and hold EXTEND (Fig. 3A) until the awning is extended completely.
NOTE: Extension is considered complete when the fabric is completely unrolled, the valance seam is visible
and a section of the roll tube is exposed (Fig. 4).
NOTE: The awning fabric should always be above the roll tube. However, if the extend switch is engaged
too long or extend is hit inadvertently instead of retract, the awning will roll up backward. This is not
a defect. To correct the fabric orientation, press the RETRACT button. The awning will then extend
to its correct orientation and normal operation can resume.

Retracting the Awning
1. Verify the coach battery is fully charged and connected to the electrical system.
NOTE: The awning can be retracted without resetting the pitch.
2. Press and hold RETRACT (Fig. 3B) until the awning is retracted completely.
3. Locate the locking latch (Fig. 2), if equipped, and lock the latch (Fig. 1).
NOTE: This latch is optional and may or may not be installed on one or both support arms.
Tying down the roll tube once the awning is extended will not allow the free-floating support arms to
work as designed and may cause damage to the awning or RV.

Adjusting Pitch - All Solera Awnings
NOTE: The awning will pitch itself to purge the pooling of excess water and may dump a significant
amount of water without notice.
1. Pitch can be set by adjusting the articulating arm to tip one side of the awning to allow water runoff.
2. Extend the awning to desired position.
3. Choose the side of the awning for optimum shade or convenient water runoff. Pull downward on the
joint of the articulating arm until desired pitch is set (Fig. 5) to allow for water runoff. Do not push the
joints of the articulating arms up. This will put tension on the gas strut, which can cause the strut to
break. Belleville washers and bolt (Fig. 6A) allow the joint to remain in the position set by the operator.
NOTE: The awning can be retracted without resetting the pitch.
NOTE: If the articulating arm does not hold position, it can be tightened by adjusting the bolt (Fig. 6A) in
the center of the articulating arm.

Maintenance - All Solera Awnings
Fabric Care
If the awning is rolled up while wet, roll it out and let it dry as soon as conditions allow before rolling it up
again. This will help prevent the formation of mildew and add greatly to the life of the awning. Mildew does
not form on the fabric itself, but on the accumulated dust, dirt and grime.
NOTE: Periodically clean vinyl or woven acrylic fabric using a mixture of ¼cup of dish soap and 5 gallons
of warm water. Liberally slosh the mixture on the top of the fabric and roll up the awning for 5
minutes. This will apply the mixture to the bottom of the fabric as well. Roll the awning back out and
hose off with fresh water. Repeat if necessary. Allow to dry before rolling up.

Troubleshooting
Manual Override
In the event of power loss or motor failure, the awning can be extended and retracted manually. Perform
the following procedure to manually retract the awning.
NOTE: This procedure may also be performed to extend or retract the awning in the event of dry camping
or camping without a battery.
1. Remove the rubber grommet (Fig. 7A) from the drive head assembly, exposing the manual override
nut on the motor.
NOTE: The drive head assembly is always located on the right side of the awning as it is viewed from
outside of the coach.
2. Using a 7/16" socket and cordless/power drill, spin the manual override nut counterclockwise to retract
the awning (Fig. 8).
NOTE: A ratchet may also be used to turn the manual override nut. Using a ratchet will take a significant
amount of time and should only be used if no cordless/power drill is available.
NOTE: Use caution when retracting the awning manually. The use of a step stool or ladder may be required
to completely retract the awning.
3. When the awning is completely retracted, remove socket or drive device and replace the rubber
grommet in the drive head assembly.
NOTE: The motor’s internal drive system prevents the awning from moving (extend or retract) on its own.
If the motor is damaged or disabled, be sure to secure the awning in the retracted position with a
strap around both the outer support arm and the mounted support arm before the manual override
nut is released.
A
During incidents of high wind, heavy rain or extended time away from the unit, it is advisable to retract
the awning completely to prevent damage to the awning and the RV.
