GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Before using this product, read and fully understand:
(1) Attached Warning Labels.
(2) This instruction manual and all accompanying documentation.
KEEP ALL EXITS CLEAR
We make every effort to ensure the accuracy of our information. We do, however, have a policy of continuous improvement and we
therefore reserve the right to change or amend designs and specifications without prior notice. Please refer to www.cruaoutdoors.com/
pages/instructions for the most up-to-date safety setup and instructions.
Any tent must be properly ventilated in all weather conditions to allow sufficient airflow into and out of the tent. Please familiarize yourself with all vents and openings in your tent
to ensure you can maintain adequate ventilation. There are three main reasons we promote ventilation within a tent, as in the same way we would in any dwelling like a house or
apartment. These are Airflow, Air quality, and Condensation Reduction.
•
AIRFLOW
: Without airflow or fresh air into the tent, your environment will become stale and stuffy. It is important to promote good
quality airflow throughout the tent.
•
AIR QUALITY
: A buildup of any harmful gasses (carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and others) is possible in an enclosed space. For
this reason, you must always have adequate ventilation in your tent to ensure a good flow of air from outside.
•
CONDENSATION REDUCTION
: Leaving the vents open, supplemented by partially opening windows and doors at night to provide
cross ventilation is a good way to reduce condensation.
Given the importance of proper ventilation, for airflow, air quality and condensation reduction, we use high and low venting in most of our tents. This allows cooler air in through
the low vents and warmer, moist air up and out through the high vents. Opening both the high and low vents is important as this allows for this cross ventilation. If your tent has
vents in the porch / vestibule, then it is important to also keep those vents open. Failure to vent your tent properly, may result in serious injury, permanent disability,
or death to you or to others.
IMPORTANT
•
Make sure you know the fire precaution arrangements on the site.
•
Consider the possibility of falling rocks or tree limbs, lightning, flash floods, avalanches, strong winds, and other potential hazards.
•
Make sure you anchor your tent at all times.
•
Please be mindful of guylines, bathtub floors, straps, and other parts of tents as they can be a potential trip hazard.
SET-UP
IMPORTANT: WE ADVISE YOU TO ASSEMBLE THE TENT ONCE BEFORE GOING CAMPING TO BECOME FAMILIAR WITH THE ASSEMBLY OF THE TENT.
Take out and organize all the contents from the carry bags. Set-up of your tent may take longer in windy conditions due to the extra caution needed.
A.Erecting the Tent
NOTE
: The Crua Culla Haul/Culla Haul Maxx are inner tents. They are not
waterproof, so they should always be placed inside another tent or properly covered
from the elements when using.
A1. Unroll the tent inside the outer tent making sure the door is in the same
direction as the outer tent door.
A2. There is one inflation valve on the tent. Unscrew the top cap of the inflation
valve and attach the pump nozzle.
B.Ventilation
B1. There are two, always open vents located at the top of the Culla Haul/Culla Haul
Maxx. Please ensure that these vents are not blocked when the tent is in use.
B2. There are three vents located at the bottom of the Culla Haul/Culla Haul Maxx
All 3 vents have toggles to allow you to close the vents based on your airflow needs.
NOTE
: When using the Culla Haul/Culla Haul Maxx inside a AER/AER Maxx, ensure
at least 2 upper and 2 lower vents on both the AER and the Culla Haul must be open
at all times to ensure proper airflow.
NOTE
: When using the Culla Haul/Culla Haul Maxx in another brand’s tent, then
all vents on the Culla Haul/Culla Haul Maxx as well as the other brand’s outer tent
should be open at all times. Doors and windows of the Culla or the outer tent can
also be used for additional ventilation/airflow if needed.
NOTE
: When using the Culla Haul/Culla Haul Maxx inside another tent, make sure
that the outer tent is big enough to accept the Culla and that there is plenty of
clearance between the outer tent and the inner tent. Insufficient clearance will limit
airflow and increase condensation.
A3. Inflate the pole system until it is quite firm (7 PSI if your pump has a gauge).
A4. Once the air poles have sprung outwards, assuming their correct shape,
detach the pump from the tent and tighten the outer valve cap on the inflation
point, it is important that this is tight to prevent seepage of air.

TAKE DOWN
A. Take Down
A1. Partially close all doors and openings.
A2. Open the inflation/deflation valve on the pole. The tent will start to deflate. Wait
until most of the air has expelled.
A3. Fold both sides to meet in the middle and then fold one more time together and
roll. Use the compression straps to keep the tent in a tight rolled shape and allow it
to easily fit in the bag.
B. Rolling up
Always roll towards the door of the tent. This will help the air trapped in the tent or
the air beams to be pushed out while it’s being rolled up.
Leave valves open while not in use.
