Storage & Aftercare:

Proper storage is one of the most vitally important aspects of caring for your new Escape XF1 Bivvy 
and every effort should be taken to ensure the bivvy is packed away dry. If you need to pack away 
the bivvy when it is wet, it is of paramount importance that it is unpacked and dried completely 
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 reproofing your Escape XF1 bivvy will maintain its ability to repel water. 
Use only clean, fresh water and a soft brush or cloth to clean your Escape XF1 bivvy. Do not use 
detergents or chemicals of any sort and never machine wash or tumble dry your bivvy.
