Things You Should Know

• 

Under certain conditions (cold weather, high  humidity, etc.) 

condensation will form on the inside surfaces of your tent. Condensation is
caused by water vapor from your breath, perspiration, or any wet clothing
inside your tent. It is NOT LEAKAGE through the tent fabric. It can be mini-
mized by removing wet clothing from your tent and by providing good ventila-
tion through the tent.

• 

Never store tent, even for a short period of time, without drying it thorough-

ly and brushing off caked dirt. Do not pack stakes or poles inside your tent.
Use a  separate storage bag.

• 

STAKES SHOULD BE REMOVED BY PULLING ON THE STAKE ITSELF.

NEVER PULL ON THE TENT FABRIC OR TENT STAKE LOOP TO
REMOVE STAKE.

• 

TENT POLES SHOULD NOT BE LEFT TELESCOPED

TOGETHER DURING STORAGE.

• 

Seam sealer has not been provided with your tent. We recommend seam

sealing your tent prior to camping. Seam sealer may be purchased through
your local retailer or at your local sporting goods store.

• 

Do not leave your tent set-up for weeks at a time, be aware that 

exposure to the ultraviolet rays of the sun can seriously damage material
and/or cause it to become discolored.

• 

See owners manual for more tips.
