Manual

The vented window has an external weather cover, which is

held closed by zips. The cover can be fully or partially

unzipped, then rolled up and retained by a set of loops and

toggles.

The upper area of the window is fitted with a mesh to allow air

circulation. The cover must be closed over the mesh whenever

it is raining to prevent water ingress.

It is advisable to have a ‘Fire’ bucket filled with water, placed

outside the tent. Hopefully it will never be needed, but if it is,

ou will be glad you made the effort.

The tent fabric is fire retardant, NOT fire proof and therefore

ou must not smoke or use a naked flame in or near it. This

includes the traditional ‘camp fire’.

Guy ropes can cause a trip hazard and should be marked so that

passers by can see them. Tent pegs are also a trip hazard and

should not be left ‘half in’.

Cleaning…

Both inside and outside of the tent should only be cleaned

using fresh clean water and a damp cloth. Do not use

detergents or chemical cleaners.

Storing…

The tent is best stored in its original carry-bag. However, if the

tent is dismantled when wet, you MUST thoroughly dry the tent

as soon as possible.

After a wet pack-up, erect the tent as soon as possible and

allow its flysheet, guy ropes and of course the carry-bag to

fully dry naturally before repacking everything away. If stored

when the flysheet and/or guyropes are wet, the tent will suffer

from mildew and will become unusable.

Please note that damage caused by incorrect storage is NOT

covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.

Repairs…

Repairs to the tent should only be made by the manufacturer’s

recommended agents. Repairs made by an unauthorised third

arty will make the manufacturer’s warranty void.

This tent is designed for light use in normal weather

onditions. It is not suitable for storms, gales, sub zero or

tropical conditions.

Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can weaken the fabric of

the tent.

o avoid the risk of UV deterioration, site the tent in a shaded

rea, where it will be protected from exposure to strong

sunlight.

Moisture collecting on the inside of the tent’s fabric is

condensation caused by the occupier. It is NOT a sign of

leakage.

Note that damage caused by condensation, is NOT covered by

the manufacturer’s warranty.

This tent has all its main seams hot air taped to help prevent

leakage. The remaining seams should be treated with a seam

sealant to maximize the tent’s weatherproofing.

Seam sealant should also be applied to main seams where the

tape has lost adhesion or has been damaged (tie points or

suspension points for example).

Seam sealant is available from your SunnCamp stockist.

To dismantle the tent or extension, simply reverse the erection

procedure.

All poles must be dismantled and the tent should be carefully

rolled prior to placing back in the carry-bag. Please refer to

‘Storing’ for further information.

How do I impregnate a tent? Verified

Pitch the tent, clean the cloth and let it dry. Apply the impregnation agent on the cloth with a plant sprayer or other spray. It is also possible to use a paint roller or brush. The cloth needs to be fully saturated with the impregnation agent. Also treat the inside of the tent. Thoroughly clean any windows with a moist cloth. Do not let the impregnation agent dry on it. Let the tent cloth fully dry. Repeat the treatment if needed.

Can I repair a tear or hole in the canvas of my tent myself? Verified

There are special pieces of self-adhesive patches of cloth available for synthetic tent canvases. Stick one of these patches on both sides of the hole or tear. For cotton tent canvases or mixed material tent canvases it's best to use patches that can be ironed on. This will require an iron.

What tent pegs are best to use for which surfaces? Verified

The impregnation agent leaves white stains or a white haze on the tent cloth, what can I do about this? Verified

If the agent leaves a white haze or white stains on the tent cloth, this means you have applied more impregnation agent on those areas. This is not harmful and the stains often disappear over time. It is not advisable to use less impregnation agent to prevent stains. The cloth needs to be fully saturated with the impregnation agent to give good results.
