Frequently Asked Questions

Will this awning fit my RV if I currently have a manual awning?

This is a motorized power awning designed for the Dometic 8500 series. Converting from a manual awning to a power awning requires compatible mounting rails and 12V power supply. Verify your RV has the correct rail system and electrical connections before ordering. The awning length must also match your existing rail length.

Can I replace just the fabric, or do I need the complete awning assembly?

This part number includes the complete awning assembly with fabric, roller tube, arms, and motor. If your existing 8500 series awning hardware is in good condition and only the fabric is damaged, you may be able to order replacement fabric separately. However, if the motor, arms, or roller tube are worn or damaged, this complete assembly is the recommended solution.

How do I maintain the motor and fabric on this power awning?

Clean the fabric regularly with mild soap and water, avoiding harsh chemicals that can damage the vinyl coating. Lubricate the arm pivot points annually with silicone spray. Always retract the awning in high winds or when leaving your RV unattended. The motor is sealed and requires no maintenance, but ensure 12V power connections remain clean and corrosion-free.

What happens if the motor fails while the awning is extended?

The Dometic 8500 series includes a manual override feature. If the motor fails, you can manually retract the awning using the emergency crank override located in the roller tube end cap. This allows you to safely retract the awning even without power, preventing damage in emergency situations.
