Q
Assembly
Tip: Before setting out on your journey you
should familiarise yourself with the structure of your
tent and erect it. Check whether all of the parts are
present and in perfect condition.
Q
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.). Please ensure that the tent is positioned in
such a way that its entrance is protected against
the wind.
j You should remember that it is not allowed to
erect tents everywhere. In most European coun-
tries camping is only permitted on officially
authorised campsites and on private land with
the permission of the landowner.
j When selecting a pitch for your tent, 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 and that there are no
tripping hazards.
j Please maintain an adequate distance to other
tents.
Q Erecting the tent
j Please ensure that the product is only assem-
bled by people with the appropriate skills.
j Erect the product in accordance with illustra-
