SToRAGE/CARE/REPAiRS:
•
If the tent is dry and clean, you can store it inside
the pack in a dry, cool place. Do not store the tent
near paint, lacquer, adhesives, fuel or plastics and
lubricants. The fumes could adversely affect the
service life of the coatings.
•
Zips are always a weak point. If the become dirty,
clean them with a (tooth)brush and care for them
with graphite (pencil lead), silicone or sewing ma-
chine oil. Apply these substances with care and re-
move any excess oil with a soft cloth.
•
Never store a wet tent for any length of time. Remo-
ve it from the pack immediately after the tour and
dry it in a well-ventilated place. To do this, separate
the inner tent from the outer tent or push the poles
through to create a gap between the materials.
•
Do not drop the poles or allow the segments to
spring together. This could damage the pole ends
or the anodisation. Check the poles regularly for da-
mage - no hairline cracks should be visible. If you
see signs of corrosion (due to salt water, for examp-
le), rinse the poles and apply silicone spray.
•
VAUDE uses only tent poles from renowned manu-
facturers DAC and Yunan. These are subjected to
light bending when in use, which reduces their su-
sceptibility to breaking. Do not try to bend them
back into shape. Despite the outstanding elasticity
of the aluminium, the poles can still break. A mat-
ching repair ferrule comes with every VAUDE tent.
Push it onto the pole, centred over the break and
secure it with tape
(Z)
.
•
Only clean by hand, with a soft cloth and lukewarm
water. Detergents may damage the coating and wa-
terproofing.
In cases of stubborn dirt, create a 1:4 solution of
Nikwax Tech Wash and water, and use it to careful-
ly rub off the dirt. Next, apply a generous amount
of Nikwax Tent & Gear Solarproof to waterproof the
area again.
•
You can provisionally seal a tear in the tent with re-
pair tape and seal it on the inside with PU or silicone
seam seal. In any case, the tear should be repaired
by an expert as quickly as possible in order to avoid
further tearing. Please contact a specialist shop in

7.
Fasten the red clamping bracket of each clip. The
tent is now secured to the poles and the reinforced
triangle ensures maximum wind stability.
8.
Secure the tent in all corners using tent pegs and, if
necessary, tension the woven bands at the foot and
the apses. To make the tent especially windproof,
the woven bands of the storm anchoring points
have to be wrapped around the pole once
(F)
and
tensioned with the pegs.
9.
Ventilation hoods must be kept clear to ensure
adequate airflow. This tent also has floor vents on
the sides, which can be used by pushing up the ou-
ter tent to any height
(G).
10.
The sides of the outer tent can also be tensioned
with skiers, ice picks etc. at the TPU loops
(H)
.
DiSASSEmBLY – GENERAL iNFoRmATioN:
•
Remove all objects from inside the tent.
•
Self-supporting constructions are easy to shake out
to conveniently remove leaves, sand, etc.
•
Allow the tent some time to dry, with the tent floor
facing upward.
•
If you are unable to let the tent dry immediately,
shake it out and allow it to dry within 12 hours of
use to prevent mold and mildew stains.
•
When disassembling the tent, never pull the poles
through the channels; push them instead.
•
When storing the tent in the pack, make sure nei-
ther the tent pegs nor the poles create pressure
marks that could damage the tent wall.
•
Close all zips before disassembly and roll up the guy
lines - this will make it easier to assemble the tent
the next time you use it!
DiSASSEmBLY – SPECiFiC To EACH moDEL:
1.
Release the pegs at the feet, release the clips from
the poles and slide the transverse pole out of the
sleeve. Allow the tent to collapse in on itself.
2.
Fold up the poles and roll them up with the tent, if
possible. Do not force the poles into the storage
bag, if it is full, as this may cause damage to the sto-
rage bag and tent.
