3. Un-peg the intermediate pegging points but keep the four corners in place. Remove the
fibreglass canopy poles.
4. Open the valves on each pole. The tent will start to deflate. Wait until most of the air has
been expelled.
5. Un-peg the four corners.
6. Fold/roll the tent towards the deflation valves to expel more air and then roll to fit in the
carry bag.
7. Ensure that the tent is totally dry before storing in a cool, dry, dark space: if possible
opened out.
Care
Tents are best stored opened out. Air fully and ensure it is totally dry before packing away.
Store in a well ventilated dry place. A wet/damp tent will develop mildew surprisingly
quickly. Dirty tents can be washed using clean water and a so
ft
brush. Do not scrub and
never use detergents.
The AirPoles do not need any maintenance but should be protected from damage during
storage. Damage due to improper use, wind damage or neglect is not covered under the
warranty. Have any damage repaired at the first opportunity. Zips should be treated with
care, use two hands to close and open and never tread on them. Never force a zip. We
strongly recommend that you carry a comprehensive spares kit including silicone waterproof
spray, seam sealer and tape for repairing the AirPoles.
Repairs to the tent should be made by a company recommended by Dometic or your
supplying dealer. Repairs and alterations made by an unauthorised company may invalidate
your warranty.
In the event of a puncture
If you suspect a puncture follow the following:
1. Undo the inflation/deflation valve from the pole and re-attach ensuring that the tube does
not twist and that the valve is firmly connected.
2. Re-inflate the AirPole.
3. If tightening the hose fittings does not solve the problem then the AirPole may be
punctured.
To remove an airpole
1. Unzip the sleeve holding the AirPole.
2. You should now be able to remove the AirPole.
3. Unzip the protective cover of the AirPole, whilst deflated, to expose the inflatable tube.
4. Locate the puncture. This is made easier if you blow some air into the tube. For small
holes it may be necessary to submerge the inflatable tube in water.
5. Once located the tube can be repaired using repair tape. We recommend Dometic Tent
& Tent Repair Tape—available from your dealer.
