Things You Should Know:
• Under certain conditions (cold weather, high humidity, etc.)
condensation 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.
• Tree limbs, tree sap, bird droppings, or moisture steadily dripping off
tree limbs can cause damage to the tent fabric and its coating resulting
in leaks or loss of flame-resistant properties.
• 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 STAKES AS THIS COULD RESULT IN
PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY.
• 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.
