Vango Faros II Low DriveAway Awning

Season:Sale

Brand:Vango

Code:AWTFAROPO000001

The Vango Faros II Low is a two-poled awning designed to be left freestanding while you head out for the day. For vehicles with an attachment height of 180cm-210cm.

Designed to be used as storage or a shelter, this awning features a Easy Access Main door and a smaller side door for quick and easy access. The main door can be rolled up, or poled out using King Poles (sold separately) to create a sun canopy, or to extend the living area. A second mesh fly screen door provides insect free ventilation. Additional high and low AirZone ventilation panels create a comfortable flow of air throughout the awning, which is essential for reducing condensation.

Comfort
The fully sewn-in groundsheet features storm skirts in front of the doors to provide a bug and draught-free environment. A bracer pole can be secured in between the main poles to enhance stability, and rear doors allow for convenient access to the front or the back of your vehicle. The connecting tunnel can be rolled away quick and easy when you drive away, keeping the awning guarding your pitch during your day trips.

Comfort isn't compromised with high visibility guylines which makes them easy to see in low light conditions and a oversized Easypack Carry Bag to allow your awning to be pack away and carried easily. Convenient lantern hanging points enable you to attach your lights with ease.

The roll away connecting tunnel features adjustment straps to help collect any excess material and creates a neater looking tunnel and a tighter fit to the vehicle. Two additional tunnel doors offer convenient access to the front or back of your vehicle without entering the awning. For day trips, simply detach the tunnel area of your awning from your vehicle and roll it away, leaving your awning freestanding as you explore for the day. Keep a note of your parking position for when you return and re-attach the awning to your vehicle.

Privacy
Diamond clear windows maximise light and visibility, and toggled privacy curtains can be simply rolled away when not in use.

Pitching
Type: Poled
Pitching time: 8 mins
Pitching Ease: Easy - 1-2 people

Fitting
Designed to fit campers and van conversions with an attachment height of 180cm-210cm, this awning can be attached to your vehicle via various attachment options. This awning comes complete with a 260cm long, 6mm Kador connector strip, a pole sleeve, Velcro tabs and webbing straps, allowing this awning to be attached to all vehicles.

For vehicles without a Kador rail, a C-Channel or a Gutter or roof bars, the webbing straps can be placed over the roof of the vehicle, and pegged into the ground on the other side.

For vehicles with a C-Channel or a Gutter, a Vango Pole and Clamp Kit can be threaded through the cowls pole sleeve, placed into the channel/ gutter and clamped into place.

For vehicles with a Kador rail with a 4mm, or 6mm rail, the 6mm beading in the cowl can be attached straight to the vehicle, or with the use of a Vango DriveAway Kit.

Optional Additions - Available Separately
For added comfort, an additional Footprint can be pitched first to help you pitch your awning in the correct spot first time, and prevent the underside of the awning from getting dirty or wet. Or, the addition of a Carpet provides under foot comfort and warmth. For sleep or storage space, the Vango Free-Standing Bedroom Inner can be placed anywhere inside the awning.
