Practical help

Common problems

Awning flapping in wind

Install an Anti-Flap Kit to keep the awning taut and secure.

Water pooling on awning

Install curved roof rafters to maintain the awning's shape and tension.

Trailer sway or instability

Install AL-KO Electronic Stability Control (ESC) for automatic braking intervention.

Before use

  • Measure awning extension to determine the correct Anti-Flap Kit size.
  • Identify caravan type (Standard, Large, or Pop-Top) before selecting air-conditioning units.
  • Verify trailer weight (ATM) to ensure coupling compatibility.
  • Check towing capacity of the vehicle before installing brake controllers.

Images and diagrams

  • Awning measurement: Shows how to measure the 'Awning Extension' to select the appropriate Anti-Flap Kit.
  • ESC operation: Illustrates the sequence of swerve detection, automatic braking, and stability recovery.

Model compatibility

  • Air-conditioning units are specific to caravan size (Standard, Large, Pop-Top).
  • Cruisemaster hitches use pin-style couplings; AL-KO uses standard ball couplings.
  • Elecbrakes E-Brake 2 is multi-vehicle compatible and does not require hard-wiring.
