Setting up the awning tent

Keep the following tips in mind while setting up the awning tent:

•

The figures provide a general overview of the set-up. The actual set-up
will vary slightly based on the model of awning tent.

•

Get help. The set-up is easier with more people.

•

Push the poles into the sleeves from front to rear.

•

After standing the awning tent upright, check the corner pegs and re-
peg if necessary. The groundsheet on the inside should be taut and in
a rectangular shape.

•

Peg the guy lines so that the awning tent is under tension without dis-
torting the shape.

•

If available, attach the storm straps.

•

Check the guy lines from time to time to ensure adequate tension, if
necessary use the runners to adjust.

Set up the awning tent as follows:

1. To protect the awning tent from dirt and damage, lay down a ground-

sheet or footprint before unpacking.

2. Unpack the awning tent.

3. Separate and identify the different components.

4. Proceed as shown to set up the awning tent (fig.

, page 3 to

fig.

, page 6).

Dismantling the awning tent

1. Reverse the set up procedure.

2. Push the poles out of the sleeves, do not pull.

3. Ensure that all parts are clean before packing in the carry bag.

4. If the awning tent is wet or damp, dry fully as soon as possible.

Cleaning and maintenance

1. If necessary, clean the product with clean water and a soft brush.

2. Apply impregnation against water and UV radiation before each trip.

Storing the awning tent

1. Clean the awning tent.

2. Air fully and ensure the awning tent is totally dry before packing away.

3. Store in a well ventilated dry place.

Troubleshooting

Condensation

All awning tents suffer from internal condensation if one or more of the
following conditions apply:

•

high air humidity

•

high ground moisture

•

a drop in temperature

Severe condensation can run down the inside of the roof and drip off ties,
tapes and other internal fittings and can be mistaken for leaking.

➤

Increase ventilation by opening doors and/or windows.

➤

Install a waterproof groundsheet.

Disposal

➤

Place the packaging material in the appropriate recycling waste bins,
wherever possible.

➤

Consult a local recycling center or specialist dealer for details about
how to dispose of the product in accordance with the applicable dis-
posal regulations.

NOTICE! Material damage

Do not open or close the zippers by force.

NOTE

•

The awning tent comes with general purpose pegs.
These will be suitable for many sites but for some types
of ground special pegs will be needed. Ask your dealer.

•

Drive the pegs at a 45° angle away from the awning tent
into the ground.

•

Peg each guy line in-line with the seam it starts from.

NOTICE! Material damage

Do not use force when dismantling the awning tent. Other-
wise you might damage any material.

NOTICE! Damage hazard

•

Do not use sharp or hard objects or cleaning agents for
cleaning.

•

Do not use alcohol based materials, chemicals, soap
and detergents for cleaning.

•

Remove bird droppings and tree resin as soon as
possible to avoid permanent damage to the material.

NOTE

•

Fully set up the awning tent for cleaning.

•

Choose a sunny day for cleaning to ensure the material
will dry thoroughly.

NOTE

•

During first exposure to water there may be some
moisture at the seams. Through this moisture the threads
will swell and fill the holes that are created in the sewing
process.

•

A fully equipped spare parts kit should include:
–

waterproofer

–

repair tape and repair solution

–

silicone spray for the zippers

–

spare pegs
