Ti ps
• It is important that you store the tent in a dry condition. If you put the tent away in the carry
bag while it is wet, even for a short time, it may become affected by mildew, which can
damage the coating.
• The suns UV rays can be harmful even with technical advances in fabrics Prolonged .
exposure could result in fading and possibly fabric disintegration. When choosing a site try
to pitch the tent in a shaded area. Do not leave a tent up longer than necessary.
• Fuels can damage tents as can DEET found in many insect repellents.
• All major seams are factory taped. Over time seams could experience delamination. Simply
clean the seam and apply seam sealer that can be purchased at most outdoor stores.
• Avoid storing your tent in a hot location.
• We recommend the use of a thin groundsheet or floorsaver with any tent for added
protection from abrasion. The floorsaver should be about 10cm. (4 inches) from the tent
edge to oid the possi ility of chan eling water av b n beneath the ten t.
• Please be sure to store your tent dry. Mildew can occur on waterproof coatings if stored
