Please read these Assembly and Care Instructions completely, be-
fore starting to assemble the tent.
General instructions:
Carry out a trial assembly of the tent so that you are familiar with
the important operations and instruction before actually using the
tent.
We recommend that the assembly is carried out with the assistance
of a second person, since many of the steps described can be carried
out more easily and quickly in this way.
To assemble the tent, you will need a rubber or steel hammer, and
also a tape measure, in order to mark out your pitch on the site and
to differentiate between the tent poles.
Accessories:
The fi xing accessories provided are designed for normal weather
conditions; heavy rain, storms, hail or snow will necessitate addi-
tional fi xing accessories, such as guy-ropes for supporting the tent
in stormy weather, and ground pegs and tent pegs for more stable
attachment to the ground.
Choosing a site:
Choose a level site wherever possible, free of stones and any sharp
objects, in order to avoid damage to the tent fabric.
Remember that resin from trees and pollen from fl owers can also
damage the fabric of the tent, and avoid such locations wherever
possible.
Pitch the tent so that the entrance is sheltered from the wind.
Care:
If the tent is to be sited on damp ground, use a groundsheet in order
to prevent the fabric from getting dirty. After use, the tent should
always be packed away in a dry condition, or at least laid out to dry
within 12 hours at the latest, in order to prevent the formation of
mould. The poles should be cleaned of dirt after use, and stored
separately from the tent skin.
Do not clean the tent using chemical cleaning agents or caustic
materials. Simply allow the tent to dry and then brush the dirt out.
The plastic windows should be cleaned only with clean water and a
soft cleaning cloth.
The zip fastenings will continue to operate smoothly if lubricated
with a normal zip fastener spray.
GENERAL:
Check the tent fi xing regularly to avoid damages caused by wind. Use
all possible tension possibilities to make sure that the tent is set up
correct and save. Window fl aps and doors should always be rolled
up inward, so that water can run off and does not collect within
the rolled-up fabric. Close doors and windows when wind becomes
stronger that the wind cannot blow up your tent
Temperature variations may cause the fabric to shrink or expand
slightly. These natural properties mean that the pitching of the tent
should be checked regularly and adjusted when necessary.
Temperature variations and natural evaporation from the ground
can lead to the formation of condensation. This effect is not due to
lack of sealing integrity, and can be minimised by means of adequate
ventilationor a airtight groundsheet.
Fire precautions:
In order to camp safely, please follow these simple rules: Never place
or use any cooking equipment or open lighting equipment close to
the walls, roof or curtains of the tent, since the fabric is infl ammable.
Always observe the safety instructions relating to this equipment.
Do not allow children to play in the immediate vicinity of such equip-
ment when it is switched on. Always leave clear an exit route from
the tent. Familiarise yourself with the fi re safety equipment and pre-
cautions applicable on the camping site, or obtain these instructions
from the site management.

Ultraviolet radiation reduces the tear strength of all tents fabrics
during their times of use.
Polyester fabric stands it better than nylon but also does not last
forever and cannot defy the effect of nature.
UV-radiation is stronger in the southern than in northern countries.
Therefore avoid permanent intensive sunlight for extended periods
of time.
dwt-Zelte will not assume any liability for damage that are caused
by uv-lights.
Temperature variations and natural evaporation from the
ground can lead to the formation of condensation. This effect is not
due to lack of sealing integrity, and can be minimised by means of
adequate ventilationor a airtight groundsheet.
Moist packed canvas can cause colour fading. Both characters are
no reasons to complain. Be aware that the tent is well ventilated
and dryly packed. Store the tent in a dry room. Separate the frame
from the canvas.
