IMPORTANT
1.
Before using your tent it must be seasoned to make it fully waterproof. This involves
erecting the tent, soaking it completely with water by either rain or hose and letting the
tent dry. It is the drying process that waterproofs the tent. Ensure all windows and doors are
closed. The wetting and drying process allows the fabric and stitching to shrink and take up.
Some water mat wick through the stitching during thid process. Repeat the wetting and
drying process 2 or 3 times. The tent should now be waterproof. If any wicking through the
stitching occurs in the future rub the stitching with a wax stick (Available at most camping
stores) which well seal the area.
2. Always allow the tent to dry completely before packing away for storage. Never store
a wet and/or soiled tent, as mildew and/or corrosion will form within a few days. This
condition is not covered by factory warranty. Allow tent to dry completely, clean before
rolling and storage.
3. During rain always lower awnings to avoid water ponding on awning.
4. This tent is designed as a recreational product only and is not suitable for use as a
dwelling.
5. Spring and elastic shock cord is provided to assist tent assembly. Age, over stretching and
mishandling pole assembly will cause elastic failure and is not covered by warranty.
