Operating Manual
Safety
• Before installing your roof tent check your vehicle and roof rack manufacturer’s
instructions to ensure sufficient load capacity including both the tent and intended
occupants.
• We recommend that you DO NOT transport your roof tent over 110 km/h and always keep to
the speed limits.
• At the beginning of each trip and at regular intervals during each trip, check that your roof
tent is firmly attached to your roof racks and that all so belts are securely fastened. Always
check your roof tent is in a safe and appropriate place.
• DO NOT use your roof tent if any part or any of its components is visibly damaged, particular-
ly the so straps and buckles. In such situations, please contact us for assistance.
• Please note that unsecured loads and incorrectly mounted roof racks can be lost during the
journey. This can lead to serious accidents.
• Be sure to adjust your driving behaviour (e.g. crosswind sensitivity, cornering, and braking
behaviour) to accomodate the change in vehicle height.
• The vehicle and roof rack manuals must always be kept with you.
• Do not use cleaning fluids containing bleach, alcohol or ammonia.
Please note the following points when using your roof tent:
• The height of your vehicle can increase by up to 90 cm (depending on your roof racks).
• Beware of low entrances, low hanging branches, etc.
• Wind noise may occur when driving with a roof tent.
• When using an automatic car wash, your roof tent must be removed first.
• In addition to these instructions for use, you should also follow the installation instructions
for your roof rack and the operating instructions for your vehicle.
• For reasons of fuel economy and the safety of other road users, your roof tent and roof rack
should be removed when not in use.
• For your safety, you should only use tested (e.g. GS-tested) roof racks that are approved for
use in conjunction with your vehicle.
• To avoid creating excessive liing force, your roof tent should be mounted parallel to the
road line and not at an angle.
• When climbing in and out of your roof tent, always use the ladder with caution and never let
children use it unsupervised. Make sure the ladder hooks are in good condition. Contact us
if you need replacements.
• Do not allow open flames in or near your roof tent.
