Drive-Away Awnings

Attaching a drive-away awning using the Guy Line Method (throw the pre-attached guy lines over the vehicle and secure to tension the connecting tunnel), follow A & B.

Attaching to a cassette awning or fixed awning rail using a Drive-Away Kit, follow C & D.

All drive-away awnings can be left up to reserve your pitch whilst you explore the local area.

A: The height to the motorhome roof from the ground is crucial to determine which height of awning will best suit your motorhome. Kampa Dometic Drive-Away awnings are available in a range of heights, designed to fit vehicles from 180 cm up to 310 cm from the ground.

B: The length of the vehicle roof determines which size of awning you can purchase. Ensure the awning tunnel clears any obstructions such as the vehicle door, wheel arches and cassette awning (if present). It’s perfectly fine for Kampa Dometic awnings to cross windows.

*For panel vans, the measurement of the sliding door may be useful for finding best tunnel fit.

C: The height to the awning rail from the ground is crucial to determine which height of awning will best suit your motorhome. Kampa Dometic Drive-Away awnings are available in a range of heights, designed to fit vehicles from 180 cm up to 310 cm from the ground.

D: The length of the awning rail determines which size of awning you can purchase. You must have enough awning rail to accommodate the size of Kampa Dometic awning that you wish to buy.

Drive-away kits offer a secure way to attach your awning to your vehicle whilst still allowing you to easily drive away.

Simply connect the figure-of-8 strip to the keder along one edge before attaching the awning beading along the other. To drive away, simply slide the figure-of-8 out of position.
