Warranties DO NOT cover normal wear and tear, misuse, abuse, inclement weather conditions (i.e., wind, rain, hail, lightning, tornadoes, or hurricanes) or other acts of God, mildew and rotting, damage or fading caused by prolonged exposure to UV rays. This warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may also have other rights which vary depending on locale. Under no circumstances shall the manufacturer be liable for any incidental or consequential damages.

The tent is water-repellent. It is not waterproof. During heavy or continuous rain, some leakage may occur. Avoid contact between objects and the inside of the tent, as this may result in leakage at points of contact. In the event of seam leakage, apply a seam-sealer compound.

Although our products are manufactured according to rigorous specifications, periods of wind or rain may loosen the stakes and cause the frame to sink into the ground. This will weaken the structure's overall rigidity. Puddles may also form on the roof if the unit has not been assembled tightly. If pooling should occur, it is advisable to drain the fly to avoid possible damage to frame and fabric. Adjustment of guy lines may be necessary. In case of inclement weather, remove valuables and seek appropriate shelter. Intended for recreational use only.

For your tent, screen house or canopy DO NOT...

• Pitch near an open fire.
• Use candles or open flames of any kind inside or near it.
• Leave children unattended inside.
• Use fuel-burning, oxygen-consuming devices (heaters, lanterns, cooking stoves or other flame sources) inside.
• Refuel lamps, heaters or stoves inside.
• Smoke inside.
• Store flammable liquids inside.
• Use water-repellent compounds other than those recommended for use on outdoor equipment.
• Spray with insecticide.
• Store on concrete floor

For your tent, screen house or canopy DO...

• Always extinguish campfire before sleeping or leaving the area.
• Exercise care when using electricity and lighting.
• Make certain it is properly ventilated in all weather conditions. In extreme weather conditions, snow could obstruct airflow and cause asphyxiation. Clear frequently.
• Anchor securely to provide additional security in changing climatic conditions. Snow pegs, skis and/or heavy rocks may be necessary to supplement stakes and guy lines.
• Take down and store properly after camping.

CAMPERS' TIPS

The key to an enjoyable camping experience is planning and preparation.

Before you go ...

Research the area where you intend to camp. Prepare for any possible weather condition. Be aware of hazards and emergency protocol. Know the rules and regulations.

Check out your equipment before your trip. Be sure your cook stove, lanterns, flashlights, air mattress, etc., are in good working order. Erect your tent to become familiar with setup. Once you've assembled your tent in a dry, well-ventilated area, apply seam-sealing compound to the stitching of the inside seams following manufacturer's directions. Allow to dry thoroughly before storage. Reapply annually.

Checklists are great planning tools. Here are some areas to consider.

Camp setup: Tent, chairs, table, ground cloth, entrance mat, tarp, poles, rope, stakes, bungee cords, duct tape, zip ties, hammer/tools, bedding.

Kitchen setup, food and beverages: Plan for transport, preparation, storage and disposal. Remember to pack fire-starting devices in waterproof containers, and bring pots, dishes, utensils, can opener, heavy-duty garbage bags and biodegradable soap. Store your food in lockers or out of sight in vehicles.

Clothing: Be prepared for all your activities. Include a hat, sunglasses and quality socks. Dress in layers.

Hygiene: Personal toiletries, rubber gloves, basic first aid items. Don't forget your medications.

Miscellaneous: Extra batteries, sewing kit, clothespins, dust pan/brush and insect-repellant.

Be considerate of others, humans and wildlife. Remember to clean up and dispose of waste properly. "Leave no trace behind."

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT NOTES:

* Assemble your tent before camping to become familiar with the assembly. * Two people are recommended for setup. * Select a clean, level area for the campsite, free of debris and sharp objects, away from any natural watercourse. * Use of a ground cloth is recommended to prolong the life of the tent floor and provide additional insulation and moisture protection. * To prevent damage to the zippers, unzip the doors and windows of the tent prior to disassembly, allowing air to move freely. * Seam-seal the inside stitched seams of the tent. This will improve weather resistance. Available in sporting goods departments. Discolouration may occur if applied to outside seams.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
PROBLEM	SOLUTION
CONDENSATION	Condensation occurs when warm, moist air inside tent comes in contact with cooler outside air. Avoid touching walls to reduce contact leakage.Venting doors and windows will reduce condensation.Store wet clothing outside of tent.A battery-powered fan may be helpful. Not applicable to screen houses.
SEAM LEAKAGE	Apply a generous amount of seam-sealer on inside seams. Seam-sealer may be purchased at any local sporting goods store.
MILDEW	To avoid mildew, store tent/screen house ONLY when thoroughly dry. However, if mildew occurs use a soft-bristle brush or sponge with mild dishwashing soap or Fels Naptha soap to clean. Let dry thoroughly and a tent-approved water-repellent compound may be applied.
REPAIRING A TEAR	For small tears use a self-adhesive patch kit. We recommend a canvas or awning repair shop for larger tears.
FAULTY ZIPPER	Zippers are self-repairing.If the zipper separates, you can move the slider to the beginning of the zipper tape and rework the zipper.
FADING FABRIC	Do not leave up in direct sunlight longer than necessary. If left in sunlight for prolonged periods of time,fabric will fade and weaken.
FLOOR CONDENSATION	A ground cloth under the floor helps prolong its life, provides additional insulation and moisture protection.The cloth should be smaller than the floor to prevent rain from running under the tent. Not applicable to screen houses.
USE OF STAKES	Stakes should be installed at a 45° angle using a hammer or mallet. Stake loops should be kept taut without over-stretching fabric or webbing.This could cause tears or leakage. To remove safely, use a hammer or stake puller. Do not remove by pulling on the fabric.
