Storage
Always make sure your tent is dry and free of debris before storing. Stuff or fold your tent a dif-
ferent way each time to avoid permanent creases. Store in a cool, dry place. Never leave your tent
in very hot temperatures (such as a car trunk), as it will damage the material coatings. Storing your
tent damp can result in mildew growth, which may cause your tent to smell, leak or delaminate.
Mildew damage is not covered under warranty.
Cleaning
For light cleaning, you can sponge the tent with warm water. If it’s necessary to wash the entire
tent, always use cleaners recommended specifically for tents. We recommend McNett Mirazyme
cleaner, or Nikwax Tech Wash. Do not dry clean or machine-wash your tent. Detergents and dry
cleaning solvents will damage the fabric and ruin waterproofing. Never use hot water, bleach, liq-
uid detergents or dishwashing liquids.
Seam Sealing
Seam tape alone is durable enough to prevent water leakage. Any seams that have been
taped do not need to be seam sealed with a liquid sealer unless you want extra protection.
Make sure the seam-sealer is completely dry before re-packing your tent. Damage caused by
misapplication may void warranty.
Zippers
Keeping your zippers clean will help keep the coils and sliders from wearing out. If filled with
dirt, vacuum or brush zippers before storing tent.
Repairs and Warranty
All Big Agnes tents are guaranteed against manufacturing or material defect. We do not war-
ranty products damaged from normal wear and tear, alteration made by owner, misuse, accidents
or damages caused by uses other than intended. Damage due to misuse, normal wear and tear,
or improper care may be repaired at a reasonable charge. Tents returned for repair must be clean
and free of debris.
