Lay out the poles and assemble them. Caution: pay attention to the cor-
rect positioning of the pole connectors. The long poles point downwards
and the short poles point upwards
(a)
. The cross pole lies over the ridge
pole (A1).

Insert the pole ends into the corresponding sockets (with the inner and
outer socket aligned). Tense the poles

located above the eyelets. Push the pegs in the dome of the tent into the
pole connectors

Starting from the middle place the cords over the ridge pole and hook
over the loop below. Then, moving from above to below, proceed to do
the same with the other poles
(E)
. Please note: the tension in the cords can
be altered once the tent is erected
(E1)
.
7.
Anchor the base with tent pegs. The anchoring point can be varied by
altering the cord length
(f)
.
8.
Anchor the porch and, if necessary, use guy ropes. Please note: It is best to
wrap the webbings of the guy ropes around the poles
(g)
.
9.
Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation. The porch and air vents are ideal
for individual adjustments.
TakE Down – gEnEral inSTrUCTionS:
•
Remove everything from the tent’s interior.
• Freestanding tents can be gently shaken out to remove leaves, sand, and
other debris.
• Turn the tent over with floor facing upward and allow it to dry a bit longer.
• If it’s not possible to dry the tent completely before packing it, this should
be done within 12 hours to prevent the risk of mold and mildew growth.
• As in the tent set up, never pull the poles out of the pole sleeves; rather
push them through.
