Tepui Low-pro User Manual

LOW-PRO OWNERS MANUAL
Updated 2.12.19
Congratulations on your purchase of a Tepui Roof Top Tent. We strive to provide the ultimate camping experience for every camper. Your top quality, durable Roof Top Tent mounts directly to your roof rack or aftermarket roof bars and can be fully set up in just a few minutes. It can be left on your vehicle year ‘round.
Tepui Tents are made with the most durable materials that stand up to the most extreme conditions. High quality ripstop fabrics with superior ventilate coating provide excellent water and wind protection, yet are more breathable than other tent brands on the market.
Most of your Tepui Tent components have been fully assembled at the factory with the exception of attaching the mounting tracks and the ladder to the base of the tent. Installation is composed of unpacking, attaching mounting tracks to the base of the tent, attaching the ladder, attaching the tent cover, and then mounting your Tepui Tent onto your roof rack or aftermarket roof bars. All of the tools and hardware required for installation are included.
Should you have any questions, please email sales@tepui.com or call Customer Service at 1-800-301-9874.

TENT ORIENTATION
ON YOUR VEHICLE
There are two mounting options for the orientation of your new Tepui Tent. Either the tent can open so that the ladder extends o the side of you vehicle, “Side Mounted,” or the ladder extends o the back of your vehicle, “Rear Mounted.” Most of our customers choose to mount their tents in “Side Mounted” orientation.
SIDE MOUNTED
Either orientation works for larger vehicles, however, most sedans or smaller SUVs are better suited for the side mounted option.
Benefits for the side mounted orientation:
1. Allows for bicycle racks and other tow hitch/bar accessories to be installed without interfering with your tent operation.
2. Closed tent width will fit inside the roof dimensions of most cars and SUV’s. i.e. the tent base will not extend beyond the roof line of your vehicle when closed.
3. Typically does not require cutting of the mounting tracks.
REAR MOUNTED
Benefits for the rear mounted orientation:
1. Fits into narrow camping spaces.
2. Trunk or tail gate area at the rear of your vehicle is accessible from inside the annex (sold separately).
