◉Do not cook in your tent.
◉Do not place hot appliances close to the walls or roof of
your tent, observe safety warnings for any appliances

◉Using an additional footprint provides extra protection if
pitching on rough or boggy ground.
3. Take the gold ‘spider’ pole and align its hubs facing
down (2) to the clips on the central ridge of the inner
tent. Assemble the spider pole’s legs one at a time,
threading the leg through the gaps in the pole sleeves as
you go.

sharp objects and rocks that may damage your ground-
sheet.
2. Peg out the inner at the corners. Assemble the silver and
bronze poles and thread them through the colour-coded
pole sleeves (1).
