EXPED TENTS
Thank you for purchasing an EXPED tent.
Innovation, quality and refined details
distinguish them from all others.
With the Orion we differentiate between windward and
leeward sides for enhanced weather protection and
increased ventilation. The doors also face the leeward
side.
1
Windward side
(dark green cords). The rainfly
fabric reaches the ground and keeps wind, sand and
snow out.
2
Leeward side
(orange cords). A small gap
enhances ventilation.
3
Pole sleeves
The internal flat pole sleeves are color
and number coded for setup. These reduce wind
resistance compared to external sleeves and shed rain
and snow easily.
4
Cord Stuffsacks
prevent tangling of tent cords
during packing. Simply insert three fingers into the
Cord Stuffsack, wrap the tent cord around your fingers
and then turn the stuffsack inside out like with a pair of
socks.
5
Guy lines
For perfect setup there are numerous
pre-mounted guy lines attached to the tent. Our
Dyneema guy lines are reflective and buckles allow
stepless adjustment.
6
Pole repair tubes
are integrated in the supports
of the air vents and are immediately at hand when
required for repairs. (In the Orion UL placed in the
accessory bag)
CONTENTS

SET UP
3
First insert the 2 long
poles) in the color coded
pole sleeves No. 1+2 until
they curve.
5
Secure the pole tips into
the grommets. Tension
the rainfly using the web-
bing straps. Secure the tent
corners with pegs.
2
Secure the head end
with 2 pegs (dark green guy
loops).
Note!
Optimal stability is achieved only when the tent is tensio-
ned properly. Nylon fabrics absorb moisture, expanding
the fabric, which will contract again when dry. Please
re-tension the tent when necessary.

the color coded sleeve No.

SE TUP OPTIONS
Canopy on its own
Using the 2 long poles and a pair of tent cords you can
set up the canopy on its own as a ventilated shelter or
bug tent.
Undo the canopy from the rainfly. Thread both long
poles through the elastic loops and place the ends into
the webbing pockets for tension, then secure with
pegs. Attach a tent cord to the center of each pole and
tension the cord.
Canopy alone
Insert the poles into the pole sleeves (steps 3-5 of
setup) and secure with pegs. Align and deploy the
guylines. The optional footprint is and ideal ground
cover.
