Our Warranty necessitates that you unpack and erect this product prior to your first use to ensure that all components are
enclosed and in good condition. Please see our Warranty section for full details of our Warranty conditions. If you find a
component missing or a fault, please contact your SunnCamp stockist for advice.
SITE SELECTION
Choose a location where the ground is flat,
smooth and dry. Attempt to position the tent
entrance away from the directions of any wind.
Do not position on sharp, rocky or rough
ground.
GETTING STARTED
Unpack the tent and place the carry-bag
somewhere safe. Separate all components and
check that everything is present.
POLES
The shock corded roof poles are folded down to
aid storage. When fitting the pole sections
together, make sure that the pole body is fully
inserted into its adjoining ferrule. Steel legs
simply slot together. Take all shock corded
poles and slot together. Next, slot the steel leg
poles together.
TENT
Lay the tent out on the selected ground area
with the entrance correctly positioned. Remove
the protective transit bags from the six captive
elbow fittings. The elbow fittings are tethered to
the flysheet by elastic cord and should not be
removed. Make sure you place the protective
bags in the tent carry-bag for safe keeping.
Insert the black shock corded poles into the
sleeves marked with a black band. Then insert
the end of each pole into the captive elbow
fittings. Note: the elbow fitting has a narrow
aperture for the black poles and a wider
aperture for the steel poles. Next, connect a
steel leg to each elbow fitting. Each leg end
slots onto a pin on a ring. The pin and ring are
attached to an adjustable webbing strap. The
ring is also used as the securing point for the
tent peg. Starting with one pole, insert the ring
pin into the end of the pole. Next, go to the
other end of the pole and insert the ring pin.
Repeat with the remaining two. You can now
attach the pole clips onto each pole to bring the
tent flysheet into the correct shape. Bring
the tent to an upright position by pegging out
the side guy ropes. (These may need to be re-
pegged at a later stage.)
ENTRANCE
You should now ensure that all entrances to the
tent are closed with all zips fully secured. If this
is not done now, the tent will be out of
alignment when fitting the tent pegs.
TENT PEGS
Starting with the four corner tags, secure the
tent to the ground using the tent pegs. Then
secure all remaining tags. When inserting into
the ground, the peg should be set at 45- degree
angle away from the tent. Pegs should be
hammered into the ground using a suitable
mallet and NOT pressed in with the foot. Most
bent pegs are caused by using your foot rather
than a mallet. Peg removal can be made easier
if you use a suitable extractor.
Pegs used to secure an entrance or door
opening can be left slightly raised. This will
allow easy hooking and unhooking when
opening or closing the door.
GUY ROPES
Secure each guy rope, positioning its peg at a
suitable distance from the tent. Once in
position, tighten the ropes equally to bring the
tent to its natural shape. DO NOT over tighten.
To tighten, hold the rope above the slider and
pull the slider up. To release, hold the rope
above the slider and pull the slider down.
Remember that all guy ropes are a trip hazard,
especially in the dark.
ROOF TENSION POLES
To improve the tents rigidity, the two sets of roof
tension poles will be inserted inside the tent
once the main erection is complete. Open the
front entrance making sure the side zips are
fully undone. Roll it fully back and secure in
place with the loop and toggle. Slot the first set
of tension poles together. Make sure that the
mini quick lock, fitted to one end of the roof
pole, is released to allow adjustment. Next,
insert the fixed end of the roof tension pole into
the left or right hand retainer sleeve at the rear
of the tent. Keep the pole captive within the
retainer sleeve as you walk to the front of the
tent. Raise the pole and insert the adjustable
end section in to the front retainer sleeve.
Carefully pull the pole and end section apart to
bring them under tension then close the mini
quick lock to retain the pole in place. Once in
place, secure the tension pole along the length
of the tent with the captive ribbons using a bow.
Finally, fit the remaining pole to the other side of
the tent.
FRONT CANOPY POLE
Insert the front canopy pole into the sleeve of
the canopy. Both ends of the pole are fitted with
a spike which is designed to fit into the metal
eye fitted to the upper most, front pole clip
fabric. Starting at one side of the tent, insert the
spike end into the eyelet. Next, go to the other
end and insert the spike into the opposite eyelet
to bring the pole under tension.
INNER TENT
Open the front entrance making sure that the
zip is fully undone. Roll the entrance fully back
and secure in place with the loop and toggles.
Fit the inner tent starting with the base,
connecting each corner clip (which is fitted to an
adjustable strap) to the captive receiver fitted to
the tents groundsheet. Next, working from the
back, attach each loop to its respective toggle.
The entrance to the inner tent is single skinned
with a mesh panel at the top, which has an
internal zipped curtain. The entrance can be
zipped closed or opened and rolled back out of
the way.
