Storage & Aftercare:
Proper storage is one of the most vitally important aspects of caring for your new XF2 Plus porch
extension and every effort should be taken to ensure the it is packed away dry. If you need to pack
away the XF2 Plus porch extension when it is wet, it is of paramount importance that it is unpacked
and dried within 24 hours before being repacked dry. If stored when damp or wet mildew and rust
will be able to form, both of which can severely damage the product and its accessories.
Always store in a cool, dark, dry place away from sources of heat or moisture. If storing for extended
periods, we recommend unzipping the carry bag to allow fresh dry air to circulate.
RegularlycleaningandreproongyourXF2Plusporchextensionwillmaintainitsabilitytorepel

• Always peg down your Escape XF2 Plus porch extension properly to reduce the risk of loss
or injury. Enough pegs and guy ropes are supplied to safely secure your Escape XF2 Plus porch
extension in most situations, however it may be necessary to purchase additional pegs and
ropes for use in extreme conditions. Tightly tensioning your Escape XF2 Plus porch extension
with the included guy ropes further increases its strength and stability and we recommend
that you do so whenever possible.
• Always maintain adequate ventilation inside your Escape XF2 Plus porch extension at all times
to help reduce the build-up of condensation, moisture and odour. Use of the optional XF2 Plus
Groundsheet (available separately) will also help to maintain temperature and prevent the
build-up of condensation inside the Escape XF2 Plus porch extension.
