the flying tent, read the instruction manual 
carefully. This particularly applies to the safety 
instructions. 
The instruction manual is based on the 
standards and regulations in force in the

Store the instruction manual for future use. 
If you pass the flying tent on to third parties, 
please be absolutely sure to include this 
instruction manual.

Proper use

The flying tent is designed for camping 
outdoors, for providing a place for lying down 
and protection against the rain. It is only 
intended for private use and is not suitable for 
commercial purposes.
Only use the flying tent as described in this 
instruction manual. Any other use is deemed 
improper and may result in damage to 
property or even personal injury. The flying 
tent is not a children’s toy.
The manufacturer or vendor accepts no 
liability for damage caused by improper or 
incorrect use.

Safety instructions

WARNING! 

Accessory parts lying around, an 

obstructed tent exit and damage to the tent 
could result in injury or suffocation.
>> Do not allow children to play with the pack 
sack and accessories. They may get caught 
in it when playing and suffocate. Make sure 
that there is always an unobstructed path of 
escape out of the tent. 

WARNING! 

If the tree slings or quick release 

units end up in the hands of children, they 
could strangle themselves.

>> Store the tree slings and quick release 
units out of the reach of children. Do not allow 
children to play with the tree slings and quick 
release units.

WARNING! Risk of fire and burn hazard!

 The 

flying tent consists of flammable material.
>> Do not set up any cooking or heating 
devices in the flying tent and do not hang 
any lighting fixtures near the walls or roof of 
the tent. Do not place any activated electric 
devices (e.g. heaters) near or inside the flying 
tent. Do not use any gas or other combustion 
devices near or inside the flying tent. Keep 
the flying tent away from open flames. Do 
not start a fire inside the flying tent. Keep the 
flying tent away from heat sources or ovens. 
Inform yourself in regard to equipment and 
precautions in the event of a fire on the tent 
grounds.

WARNING! 

Incorrectly using or assembling 

the flying tent can cause injury.
>> Do not exceed the hammock’s load 
bearing capacity of 120

 

kg. Make sure that 

only one person is lying in the hammock at 
the same time. The suspension attachment 
for hooking the hammock into place must be 
properly installed, checked for wear at regular 
intervals and replaced if necessary. The flying 
tent may only be set up and assembled by 
adults. Only set up the hammock over soft 
ground. If you set up the hammock such that 
the lying height is over 600

 

mm, the ground 

must be provided with shock absorption. 
The fabrics and lines are subject to wear and 
may become brittle. This may be indicated by 
severe changes in colour. Therefore, check 
the load-bearing capacity of the hammock 
before you use it and stop using the hammock 
as soon as the full load-bearing capacity 
is no longer assured. Never leave children 
unsupervised in the hammock. Make sure 
that the hammock is not used as a swing, 
gymnastic apparatus or climbing frame, that 
the data mentioned and outlined herein is 
adhered to and known to all other users.

ATTENTION! 

You could trip over the pegs 

protruding from the ground.
