Condensation
All tents suffer from internal condensation if one or more of the following
conditions apply:
high air humidity
high ground moisture
a drop in temperature
Severe condensation can run down the inside of the roof and drip off ties,
tapes and other internal fittings and can be mistaken for leaking.
Increase ventilation by opening doors and/or windows.
Install a waterproof groundsheet.
Repairing a puncture in the air pole
If the air pole loses air, proceed as follows:
1. Unzip the outer sleeve holding the air pole.
2. Remove the air pole.
3. Deflate the air pole.
4. Unzip the protective sleeve to expose the inflatable tube.
5. Blow some air into the inflatable tube.
6. Submerge the tube in water.
7. Locate the puncture.
8. Use repair tape and repair solution to seal the hole.
9. Zip the inflatable tube back into the protective sleeve.
10. Zip the air pole back into the outer sleeve.

wherever possible.

cling centre or specialist dealer for details about how to do
this in accordance with the applicable disposal regulations.
Warranty
The statutory warranty period applies. If the product is defective, please
contact the manufacturer's branch in your country (see
dometic.com/dealer) or your retailer.
For repair and warranty processing, please include the following docu-
ments when you send in the device:
A copy of the receipt with purchasing date
A reason for the claim or description of the fault
The warranty covers manufacturing defects, materials and parts. The
warranty does not cover fading of the cover and wear and tear due to
UV radiation, misuse, accidental damage, storm damage, or permanent,
semi-permanent or commercial use. It does not cover any resulting
damage. Please contact your dealer for claims. This does not affect your
statutory rights.
NOTE
Fully set up the tent for cleaning.
Choose a sunny day for cleaning to ensure the material
will dry thoroughly.
NOTE
During first exposure to water there may be some
moisture at the seams. Through this moisture the threads
will swell and fill the holes that are created in the sewing
process.
A fully equipped spare parts kit should include:
waterproofer
repair tape and repair solution
silicone spray for the zippers
spare pegs
