BEFORE YOU BEGIN
SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
LONG TERM STORAGE
• Locate a level site clear of all debris and sharp objects to prevent tears while setting up your tent.
• For easy set-up in windy conditions, make sure to position one of the corners of the tent into the wind.
• Do not set up your tent under any overhead obstructions in case of falling objects or lightning strikes in inclement
weather.
Ultraviolet (UV) rays are an invisible part of sunlight. Prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause fibers to fade and degrade.
This tent will last longer if you limit its exposure to UV rays. Pitch the tent in shade when possible and don’t leave the tent up
longer than necessary.
• Take down the tent when not in use to avoid unnecessary fading from outdoor elements. Fading or discoloring
of fabric is not covered under your warranty.
• Take down the tent when not in use to avoid unnecessary damage.
• Use extra tie-down ropes during excessive winds.
• Never put the tent away wet. Always put away dry and clean to avoid mildew and other problems.
Make sure your tent is completely dry and clean before storing for long periods of time. Store your tent in a cool, dry place
away from rodents.

tion one of the corners of the tent into the wind, and stake that
corner down through the provided grommet.
