GENERAL INFORMATION

General information
Reading and storing the
instruction manual
This instruction manual
accompanies this flying tent. It
contains important information on
set-up and handling. Before using
the flying tent, read the instruction manual
carefully. This particularly applies to the safety
instructions.
The instruction manual is based on the
standards and regulations in force in the
European Union. When abroad, you must also
observe country-specific guidelines and laws.
Store the instruction manual for future use.
If you pass the flying tent on to third parties,
please be absolutely sure to include this
instruction manual.
Proper use
The flying tent is designed for camping
outdoors, for providing a place for lying down
and protection against the rain. It is only
intended for private use and is not suitable for
commercial purposes.
Only use the flying tent as described in this
instruction manual. Any other use is deemed
improper and may result in damage to
property or even personal injury. The flying
tent is not a children’s toy.
The manufacturer or vendor accepts no
liability for damage caused by improper or
incorrect use.
Safety instructions
WARNING! Accessory parts lying around, an
obstructed tent exit and damage to the tent
could result in injury or suffocation.
>> Do not allow children to play with the pack
sack and accessories. They may get caught
in it when playing and suffocate. Make sure
that there is always an unobstructed path of
escape out of the tent.
WARNING! If the tree slings or quick release
units end up in the hands of children, they
could strangle themselves.
>> Store the tree slings and quick release
units out of the reach of children. Do not allow
children to play with the tree slings and quick
release units.
WARNING! Risk of fire and burn hazard! The
flying tent consists of flammable material.
>> Do not set up any cooking or heating
devices in the flying tent and do not hang
any lighting fixtures near the walls or roof of
the tent. Do not place any activated electric
devices (e.g. heaters) near or inside the flying
tent. Do not use any gas or other combustion
devices near or inside the flying tent. Keep
the flying tent away from open flames. Do
not start a fire inside the flying tent. Keep the
flying tent away from heat sources or ovens.
Inform yourself in regard to equipment and
precautions in the event of a fire on the tent
grounds.
WARNING! Incorrectly using or assembling
the flying tent can cause injury.
>> Do not exceed the hammock’s load
bearing capacity of 120kg. Make sure that
only one person is lying in the hammock at
the same time. The suspension attachment
for hooking the hammock into place must be
properly installed, checked for wear at regular
intervals and replaced if necessary. The flying
tent may only be set up and assembled by
adults. Only set up the hammock over soft
ground. If you set up the hammock such that
the lying height is over 600mm, the ground
must be provided with shock absorption.
The fabrics and lines are subject to wear and
may become brittle. This may be indicated by
severe changes in colour. Therefore, check
the load-bearing capacity of the hammock
before you use it and stop using the hammock
as soon as the full load-bearing capacity
is no longer assured. Never leave children
unsupervised in the hammock. Make sure
that the hammock is not used as a swing,
gymnastic apparatus or climbing frame, that
the data mentioned and outlined herein is
adhered to and known to all other users.
ATTENTION! You could trip over the pegs
protruding from the ground.
