SETTING UP CAMP

Setting up the annex:

1) To start, you’ll need to remove the tent cover if you have

not already. Do so by sliding it to one side and out of the

channel in the frame.

2) You’ll also want to get the ladder out of the way by

collapsing it and securing it with the velcro tie-down on the

base of the tent.

3) Grab the fabric walls of the annex and locate the corded

edge. Insert this edge into the same channel you just

removed the cover from and feed it through.

4) Locate zipper on the ladder awning and bring it all the

way to the left (if facing the vehicle.) Insert the end of the

zipper on the annex walls and zip the walls to the ladder

awning.

5) Locate the zipper on the base of the annex walls and

bring it to the starting point. Unfold the PVC floor, locate

the starting point on the zipper, and orient it with the base

of the annex walls so the ends of the zippers meet up. Zip

the floor to the walls.

6) Now you can lower the ladder back down and your

annex is ready to use.
