INSTRUCTIONS
1. Test run
Practice pitching your shelter and ground sheet at home to ensure you understand the process.
2. Unpacking
When taking your ground sheet out for the first time, take a moment to see how it is packed or
take a photo on your phone. This will help you when packing away. You will notice a fabric panel
with a logo in one corner of the ground sheet. The logo panel should face up. The ground sheet is
symmetrical, so this can be placed in any corner of your shelter.
3. Pick a site
Use your ground sheet as a template to find an ideal site before unpacking your shelter.
When finding a site for your shelter, try to find an area that is sheltered, flat, and free from sharp
objects. Avoid pitching your shelter under trees as falling branches can damage the shelter and
falling sap can damage the fabric.
4. Layout
Unroll the ground sheet with the logo facing up. Once oriented correctly on your chosen site,
peg out the corners, ensuring there is tension between each point and that the floor sits as flat as
possible. Peg the remaining peg loops around the ground sheet. For best results, pegs should be
angled away from your ground sheet at 45º.
5. Pitch your tent
Lay your shelter on top of your ground sheet and position it to match the ground sheet layout.
Inflate/pitch your shelter as normal.
6. Packing away
When rolling your ground sheet away, lay the carry bag down at one end and fold the ground
sheet to 3/4 the length of the bag. Place the peg bag on top of the folded ground sheet and roll
tightly toward your carry bag. Place in carry bag and secure with drawstring.
NOTE: To prevent mildew, ensure that your ground sheet is dry when packing away. If you must
pack your ground sheet away wet, ensure that it is dried completely as soon as possible, mildew
can develop within a few days.
Care Instructions
1. Do not store your ground sheet dirty. Clean your ground sheet by rinsing with warm water and
scrubbing with a soft towel or brush.
2. Never pack your ground sheet away wet. If you must pack your ground sheet away when wet,
ensure that it is dried completely as soon as possible to prevent mildew forming.
3. If mildew does form on your ground sheet, wash off with warm water and a soft brush to
prevent further growth, do not use soap or detergents.
4. This ground sheet is not intended to be used as a shelter or shade sail.
