CAUTIONS:

•   Keep open flame and all other sources of heat away 

from the tent. The fabric of this tent is not fireproof. 

Excessive  heat  can  damage  the  tent  fabric, 

waterproof coatings and components.

 

•   NEVER  cook  inside  your  tent.  Cookers  produce 

carbon monoxide , which can (and has) killed 

people. So cook outside, even if the weather’s 

rubbish. Shelter your stove with carefully placed 

rocks just outside the vestibule.
