1. Remove the travel cover from the tent by unzipping around the 3 edges
and slide the remaining edge from the rope track. See

NB - When closing the tent, do not use excessive force on the side
retaining velcro straps. See caution on page 7.
3. Slide out the ladder until the locking pins engage. The ladder can now be
used as a lever to open the tent. See
4. Rest the ladder on the ground.
Note: if the angle of the ladder is too upright or does not reach the ground
you will require a ladder extension. See page 7.

Enter the tent and release the four elastic bungee cords from one side of the
tent.
7. Retrieve the spring steel rods (SSR), these are used to tension the outside
window awnings and flysheet. Hook the shaped end of the SSR into the
eyelet of the flysheet or window awning. Insert the other end of the SSR into
the hole in the base of the rooftop tent, passing through the slit in the
rooftop tent skirt. This will require you to bend the SSR so that the angle of
the SSR is equal to the angle of the hole into which it should be inserted. NB
reverse this procedure to remove the SSR from the hole in the base of the
rooftop tent. See

9. Repeat all the above steps in the reverse order to pack away your rooftop
tent. When packing away your tent, depending on your bedding volume it
