ALWAYS
AIR + DRY
TENT
PLEASE TAKE NOTE:
Avoid closing the tent while it’s still wet or damp.
Please note, there will be condensation after a night’s sleep in the tent.
Please take care to air and dry the tent at your earliest convenience.
Be careful to store the ladder against the rear of the tent before closing the lid.
Make sure the canvas is tucked on the sides when closing the tent. Failure to do so can lead to damage.
If you’re loading items onto the roof, make use of the accessories rails and approved roof-racks or load bars. The
load bars are designed to carry a maximum weight of 50 kg. With this added weight it requires more strength
when opening the tent as gas lifts only assist.
The roof panels themselves are not designed to carry weight and will dent if you place items onto them.
If your tent is equipped with an electrical kit (lights & power points), make sure these are turned off and
unplugged during transit/storage.
