  • This video shows how to open and close an RV awning made by A&E Dometic. Yes the camera work isn’t the greatest but my 5 year old daughter was the camera girl so cut her some slack! 👍

    I think you did a very good job of a step by step process of using the rv awning.
    I''m a 64 year old woman and I hope I can do it all by myself.
    Thanks.

    We just got an RV and today was our first day using the awning. The wind start picking up and we realized we didn't know how to get it back down quickly and correctly. We did it and then decided we better look it up to make sure it was locked in place. Thanks for the informative tutorial - next time we'll look like we know what we are doing!

    Thank you very much for recording this (wish the camera guy got a little closer when u were doing certain things, but it is what it is). We drop our leg down at the rear end of the rig; rachet strapped to the ground for high winds. While keeping the front one attached to rig & secured as well. We're in a wind tunnel. But THANK YOU! You saved lives and ALOT of arguments between spouses. 😂

    Great little video. We just got a White Water Retro, and struggled to get the canopy up and tight. Thanks for the lesson. If you do any more videos, please ask your camera operator (wife?) to keep the camera on the action, slightly wider lens, and don't jiggle the camera around so, and keep her (?) hands from in front of the lens. Many Thanks from Arden, NC.
