Fire precautions

Camp safely. Follow these common

sense rules:

 

Do not place hot appliances near the walls,

roof or curtains.

 

Always observe the safety instructions for

these appliances.

 

Never allow children to play near hot

appliances.

 

Keep exits clear. Do not block the exit with

objects.

 

Make sure you know the fire precaution

arrangements on the site.

Take note of the effects of the weather

and climate

 

When selecting the location to put up your

tent, you should always consider the local

situation and how this might change. Will the

terrain turn into a lake if it rains? Please take

into account any rising rivers and incoming

tides.

 

Protect the product against strong wind and

storms. Place the product in a location that is

protected from the wind if possible.

 

If a strong wind is forecast, replace the

normal tent pegs with special storm pegs.

You can find information about meaningful

supplementary products at specialist shops.

 

The tent should be taken down before heavy

snowfall or stormy weather.

 

Remove any snow directly from the product.

Otherwise the product may collapse under

the weight.

 

Ensure that the tent is not too taut when it

is erected, otherwise it may not be able to

adapt to changing weather conditions and

might be damaged.

 

Zips are wearing parts and do not fall under

the guarantee conditions.

 

The polyester material of the tent consists of

water-repellent material.

 

It is possible that during the first rainfall

the tent will not be completely watertight.

However, the threads of the tent will contract

when exposed to water so that after a short

time the tent will become watertight.

 

When exposed to moisture and rain, tent

fabrics expand to varying degrees and

make it necessary to adapt the length of

the guy lines. If the material becomes taut

again while drying, the guy lines have to be

loosened again in good time.

 

Do not use any insect spray in or on the tent.

 

Small leaks on the seams can be repaired

with a seam spray and impregnation spray

can be used for the tent skin.

Assembly

§

Selecting a pitch

The ground should be flat, clean and as smooth as

possible. Before you erect your tent, remove any

pointed and sharp objects (e.g. stones, branches etc.).

Ensure that the tent

1

is positioned in such a way that

its entrance is protected against the wind.

 

When selecting a pitch for your tent

1

,

remember that you need not only an area

for the floor of the tent, but also room for the

guy lines. You should also ensure that there is

enough space to walk around the tent

1

and

that there are no tripping hazards.

§

Erecting the tent

 

Erect the product in accordance with

illustrations A to C.

§

Packing the tent together

 

Ensure that the tent

1

is completely dry before

you pack it together. Otherwise this may result

in stains and damage to the fabric.
