- switch control with one touch command
- the motor stops automatically when the awning is fully opened or closed
- the relay in the kit prevents the awning from being operated while driving

Questions and answers
Can I fit the motor to a hand crank awning?
Yes. The kit is intended to retrofit a manual Thule Omnistor 6300 awning - it replaces the gearbox.
What happens in case of power failure?
The motor has an integrated manual override - the awning can be opened or closed with a hand crank.
Can the awning be opened while driving?
No. The relay in the kit prevents operation while driving, and the control box is connected so that it does not work with the ignition on.
Which fuse and cables do I need?
A 20 A fuse and 2.5 mm² cables, up to 4 mm² for longer runs. At least 9 V should remain at the 20 A peak.
How do I choose the colour?
Choose the colour of your awning housing: white (302096), anodised (302097) or anthracite (302098).
