Do not use awnings in heavy rain?????? Really???

So out shopping for a new motorhome looking at Gas to pushers read the owners manual on a new Tiffin Red as wife likes the 37 PA and it tells me to put the awning away in a rainstorm ? I live in Wash...

Used to have to worry about pooling and stretching of the fabric on the manual type awning, but the electrics do pretty well with dumping if it is set with a pitch.

If you followed everything in the manual, you wouldn't leave the driveway and I think the manufacturer prefers you don't, or they might have to warranty something.
