- Clean and close all zippers. Remove all pegs and release the tent cords. The pegs are stored in the accessory bag.
- Release the buckles on all 4 corners.
- Release the crossbar from the grommets.

- Carefully unclip the canopy and remove the poles from the grommets. Carefully undo the pole segments and place the set into the accessory sack. Note! The poles are under tension before you release them from the grommets.
- Lay out the canopy and fold in thirds lengthwise to fit the packsack.
- Place the full accessory bag at one end of the folded tent as a rolling aid and roll the tent tightly and slip the rolled tent into the stuff sack.
TIPS AND TRICKS
Before leaving on your next adventure, check that your tent is complete and free of damage. Check the tent poles for cracks and burrs.
Appropriate ventilation can prevent condensation within the tent. Vent the tent regularly by at least opening the doors partially at the upper end.
To secure the pegs in loose earth, sand or snow, wrap the tent cord around the center of the peg and bury it horizontally. You can also use the packsack filled with sand or snow, or use the Exped Snow and Sand Achors available separately.
Note! Never light a stove in a tent as it is a fire hazard or can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.
Should your tent remain stationary over a longer period, protect it from UV by placing a cheap tarp over it.
A tent footprint (available separately) protects the tent floor from damage and can also reduce condensation build up.

EXPED TENTS
Thank you for purchasing an EXPED tent. Innovation, quality and refined
details distinguish them from all others.
As with all of our tents in the 3-season category, two-thirds of the Lyra
Extreme`s canopy is made of airy and finely woven mesh. This allows good views
out of the tent and the canopy can be used on its own as a bug tent.
- Easy to use clips allow quick setup.
- Cord Stuff sacks prevent tangling of tent cords during packing. Simply insert three fingers into the Cord Stuff sack, wrap the tent cord around your fingers and then turn the stuff sack inside out like with a pair of socks.
- Guy lines Our tent cords allow quick and steeples adjustment.
- The fabric panels of the canopy serve as wind and privacy screens.
SET UP MODES
- Optimist Mode Set up without the fly to maximize ventilation and skyward views, while keeping bugs and other crawlies out.
- Stargazer Modes roll back and secure the head end of the fly to the spreader-pole, revealing full night-sky views.
- Privacy Mode Fully attach and zip up the fly to achieve maximum privacy and weatherproofing.
SET UP
Note! In calm and dry weather only 2 pegs are needed to tension both vestibules. For optimal stability and wind resistance all pegs and guylines should be used. Re-tension the tent if necessary.
