Things You Should Know:

• Under certain conditions (cold weather, high humidity, etc.) condensa-

tion will form on the inside of your tent. Condensation is caused by
water vapor from your breath, perspiration, or any wet clothing inside
the tent. It is NOT LEAKAGE through the tent fabric. It can be minimized
by removing wet clothing from your tent and by providing good ventila­tion through the tent.

• Never store tent, even for a short period of time, without drying it

thoroughly and brushing off caked dirt. Do not pack stakes or poles
inside your tent. Use a separate storage bag.

• STAKES SHOULD BE REMOVED BY PULLING ON THE STAKE ITSELF.

NEVER PULL ON THE TENT TO REMOVE STAKE.

• TENT POLES SHOULD NOT BE LEFT TELESCOPED TOGETHER

DURING STORAGE.

• Do not leave your tent set-up for weeks at a time. Be aware that exposure

to ultraviolet rays from the sun can seriously damage material and/or
cause it to become discolored.

WARNING: Keep all flame and heat sources away

from this tent fabric.

This tent meets the flammability requirements of CPAI-84. The
fabric may burn if left in continuous contact with any flame source.
The application of any foreign substance to the tent fabric may
render the flame-resistant properties ineffective.
