Using the Canopy

Before First Use
Familiarize yourself with the product by carrying out a test set up before the product is used for the first time. Check if the scope of delivery is complete.

Choosing a Site
Choose a flat site that is protected from wind:

1. If necessary, use a windbreak.
2. Choose a shaded site to avoid UV degradation of the fabric.
3. Avoid pitching under trees as falling branches, resin, etc. can damage the product.
4. Clear the site of sharp stones and debris to avoid damaging the groundsheet.
5. Set up the product with the doors facing away from the wind.

Setting up the Canopy

Keep the following tips in mind while setting up the canopy:

• The figures provide a general overview of the set-up. The actual set-up will vary slightly based on the model of canopy.
• Get help. The set-up is easier with more people.
• Thread the poles through the outer sleeves.
• After standing the canopy upright, check the corner pegs and re-peg if necessary.
• Peg the guy lines so that the canopy is under tension without distorting the shape.
• Check the guy lines from time to time to ensure adequate tension, if necessary use the runners to adjust.

Set up the canopy as follows:

1. To protect the canopy from dirt and damage, lay down a ground-sheet or footprint before unpacking.
2. Unpack the canopy.
3. Separate and identify the different components.
4. Proceed as shown to set up the canopy.

Dismantling the Canopy

1. Reverse the set up procedure.
2. Push the poles out of the sleeves, do not pull.
3. Ensure that all parts are clean before packing in the carry bag.
4. If the canopy is wet or damp, dry fully as soon as possible.

Cleaning and Maintenance

NOTICE! Damage Hazard

• Do not use sharp or hard objects or cleaning agents for cleaning.
• Do not use alcohol based materials, chemicals, soap and detergents for cleaning.
• Remove bird droppings and tree resin as soon as possible to avoid permanent damage to the material.

1. If necessary, clean the product with clean water and a soft brush.
2. Apply impregnation against water and UV radiation before each trip.

Storing the Canopy

2. Air fully and ensure the canopy is totally dry before packing away.
3. Store in a well ventilated dry place.

Troubleshooting

NOTE

  • Silicone spray for the zippers
  • Spare pegs

If you cannot find any leaks.
If you find any leaks, apply seam sealant.
Rip in the fabric| Use repair tape to seal the fabric.
Have repairs carried out by an authorized specialist.
Shock cord connecting the poles has broken| Purchase a replacement shock cord.
Replace the shock cord.
Pole has broken| Use a metal peg as a splint by taping it to the broken pole.
Purchase a new pole.

Severe condensation can run down the inside of the roof and drip off ties, tapes and other internal fittings and can be mistaken for leaking.

• Increase ventilation by opening doors and/or windows.
• Install a waterproof groundsheet.

• Place the packaging material in the appropriate recycling waste bins, wherever possible.
• Consult a local recycling center or specialist dealer for details about how to dispose of the product in accordance with the applicable disposal regulations.
