damage to both yourself and the shelter. Check
guy ropes/pegs daily.

IMPORTANT:
1. Under certain conditions (cold weather, high
humidity etc.) condensation may form on the
inside of your shelter. Condensation can occur for
many reasons including vapour from your breath,
perspiration, cooking nearby or wet clothing inside
your shelter. This does NOT mean your shelter
is leaking through the fabric. You can minimise
condensation by airing out your shelter during the
day and by removing any wet clothing/towels etc.

tree limbs, falling leaves, sap, bird droppings or
excess water dripping from the trees can cause
damage to the shelter fabric and its special
coatings resulting in leakage or discolouration.
3. Only remove the shelter pegs by pulling on
the peg itself. NEVER pull on the shelter or the
webbing loops to remove pegs as it could result in
damage to the shelter or personal injury.
