Setting Up Your LiteIgloo
The LiteIgloo comes folded in its own carry bag. A great
advantage of the LiteIgloo over some other shooting enclosures on
the market is that it is collapsible, making storage and transporting
very convenient.
13. Unzip the carry bag holding the LiteIgloo, and remove it from
the bag.

Installing Your Background Sweep
Another great feature of the LiteIgloo is that it comes with white and blue
background sweeps for backgrounds without a horizon. They are secured
in the enclosure with Velcro
®
tabs. Since the sweeps have been folded for
packaging, they may need to be ironed or steamed. Be sure to use the
lowest setting on your iron to prevent melting of the nylon fabric. It helps to
spritz the fold with a little water before ironing.
