Introduction
The Solera® Super Shade for Electric Awnings is the
only recreational vehicle awning shade made specically
for 12V awnings. It is simply the easiest shade to set up on the market today. The Super Shade can be used on Solera awnings as well as Carefree awnings and Dometic awnings. It’s perfect for awnings that provide little shade
because they roll out at. The open-weave fabric cuts
approximately 85% of light for a cool and comfortable shade. It provides some privacy without blocking your view and doubles as a windbreak.
The Solera Super Shade for Electric Awnings comes in two pieces: a 6’ body (below the zipper) and an insert.

IF STAKING SOLERA SUPER SHADE TO THE GROUND, BE SURE TO DISABLE ANY AND ALL SELF RE-TRACKING WIND SENSING OPTIONS ON THE AWNING. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE AWNING AND UNIT.
Installation
1. Unbox and unfold the Solera Super Shade body and the
zipper insert. Unzip the insert piece from the body and set the body piece aside.
2. Locate and trim the polycord so that at least 3” of polycord extends past the fabric on both sides (Fig.1).

NOTE: For Solera and Carefree awnings, align the roll tube channel with the front side of the drive/idler head (Fig.1 and Fig.2). This allows the insert piece to slide more easily into the roll tube channel.

5. Using the polycord, slide the insert piece into the roll tube channel, making sure not to snag the insert (Fig.2).

NOTE: The easiest way to install this insert piece is to have one person hold the insert even with the roll tube, while another person pulls the insert into the roll tube channel.
6. Once the insert is located in the center of the roll tube, affix the insert piece with self-adhesive hook and loop fabric to the roll tube on both ends. This will hold the insert in place when zipping on the body portion of the Super Shade (Fig.3).
7. Take the body of the Super Shade and zip it to the insert piece (Fig.4).

8. Stake the shade to the ground with the tie downs and stakes provided.
NOTE: To remove the Super Shade for storage, remove the spikes and tie downs and unzip the body panel of the
Super Shade. Fold to t in the storage bag provided. The
insert piece can remain on the roll tube and roll up with the fabric when the awning is retracted.
NOTE: The other section of hook and loop fabric is sewn into the insert piece (Fig.3).
