SHELTER CARE INSTRUCTIONS
PLEASE READ ALL OF THE SHELTER CARE INFORMATION
AND INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED WITH THIS SHELTER
BEFORE USING YOUR SHELTER FOR THE FIRST TIME.
1. Before you use your new shelter, fully unpack and pitch it at
home. It is important to familiarise yourself with the set up
procedure and the various features.
2. Select a site that is level, clear of any sharp objects, is dry,
will drain well if it rains and is protected from wind and other
elements.
3. Keep clear of overhead power lines and trees when setting up
your shelter.
4. For best and easiest results, enlist the help of at least one other
person to assist in pitching the shelter.
5. Keep all flame and heat sources away from this shelter fabric.
Do not use open flame or gas appliances in or near your shelter.
6. Do not use aerosol sprays or any solvent based products in
or around your shelter as these could damage the fabric or
special coatings. These products include but are not limited
to: repellent spray, hair sprays, alcohol, detergents, fly spray,
petrol, kerosene etc.
7. Please note, the warranty on this shelter will be deemed void
if the product is used for any purpose other than a temporary,
recreational use shelter.
8. DO NOT leave shelter pitched for weeks at a time as extended
exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays can damage and/or cause
it to discolour. Your shelter will not be covered under warranty if
you leave it up for many weeks at a time. To avoid the risk of UV
deterioration, site the shelter in a shaded area, where it will be
protected from exposure to strong sunlight.
9. Especially in windy conditions, it is essential that you attach guy
ropes and fasten them to the ground. We suggest you insert
the pegs into the ground at a 45° angle towards the shelter,
not straight down. Please note, your shelter will nor be covered
under warranty if wind damage occurs.
10. Hold the flaps up, when closing the doors, to take pressure off
the zips. Ensure that the shelter fabric is never over stretched,
especially as this may cause problems with the internal doors.
11. To clean your shelter, only ever use a soft sponge and
warm water. DO NOT use excess force or other harsh
cleaners to remove marks from shelter.
12. Ensure the shelter is completely dry and clean before
storing away and ensure to store it in a dry environment.
13. Please note that the valves used on this product rely on
a good air seal which can fail and become ineffective if
left under compression whilst in storage. To reduce the
chance of valve malfunction, the valves should be fully
unscrewed when the product is in storage. Replacement
valves are available from your stockist.
14. Please note, that the inflatable bladders are not
repairable. Spare inflatable bladders, with full instructions,
are available to purchase from your stockist.
15. Changing atmospheric conditions can make the air
tubes appear to lose or in some cases gain pressure.
Commonly caused by rising or lowering in ambient
temperature. Should this occur, the tube will simply
require either a topup or release of excess pressure. It
should NOT be considered a sign of leakage or puncture.
However, where leakage is suspected, you should firstly
inspect the valve to ensure that no parts are cross-
threaded and that the air seals are in good condition and
tight. Removing a valve then re-fitting and re-inflating may
help. If you discover that a valve has become faulty or
a bladder has developed a leak, spares are available to
purchase from your stockist.
IMPORTANT:
1. Under certain conditions (cold weather, high humidity
etc.) condensation may form on the inside of your
shelter. Condensation can occur for many reasons
including vapour from your breath, perspiration, cooking
nearby or wet clothing inside your shelter. This does
NOT mean your shelter is leaking through the fabric.
You can minimise condensation by opening windows (if
included) and airing out your shelter during the day and
by removing any wet clothing/towels etc.
2. Try to avoid pitching your shelter under trees as tree
limbs, falling leaves, sap, bird droppings or excess water
dripping from the trees can cause damage to the shelter
fabric and its special coatings resulting in leakage or
discolouration.
