The device described in the manual is the CORE 9 PERSON LIGHTED INSTANT CABIN TENT - 14 x 9, Model No. 40062-1.

Function Description:

This is a large, instant cabin-style tent designed for recreational use, accommodating up to 9 people. Its primary function is to provide shelter and a comfortable camping experience. A key feature is its "instant" setup, which can be completed by two people in 60 seconds or less. The tent also includes an integrated lighting system, offering two power options, and a room divider for added privacy. It is designed as a 2-3 season tent, suitable for mild to moderate weather conditions, but not recommended for severe weather.

Important Technical Specifications:

• Capacity: 9 Person
• Dimensions: 14' x 9' x 78" (427 cm x 274 cm x 198 cm)
• Setup Time: Approximately 60 seconds (with two people)
• Fabric: Flame-resistant fabric meeting CPAI-84 specifications (NOT fire-proof). The fabric is also factory-treated for water-resistance, though it is not waterproof.
• Lighting System Power Options:
  • Option 1: 4-D batteries (not included) in an empty battery pack.
  • Option 2: Rechargeable Portable Power Pack (not included), with a recommended output of 5V, 1A for optimized performance.
• Lighting Feature: "NIGHT LIGHT" button activates amber-colored lights to help preserve night vision.
• Seams: Factory-sealed with water-resistant tape.
• Ventilation: Includes ground vents for airflow, which can be cinched shut in colder weather.
• Electrical Port: A wall plug symbol indicates a port for an electrical cord to access the tent, closing fully when not in use.
• Warranty: 1-Year Limited Warranty against defects in materials or workmanship.

Usage Features:

• Instant Setup: The tent features a pre-attached pole system. Setup involves unfolding leg poles from a pod shape, extending them at joints, lifting corner joints to extend eave poles, and pulling roof poles straight out to create the cabin shape. Leg poles then angle at joints to partially stand up.
• Rainfly Attachment: The rainfly drapes over the tent, with a "CORE" logo over the door. It attaches via plastic clips to leg poles, an awning pole inserted into a sleeve and grommets above the door, and hook-and-loop tabs to each pole. Guylines on the rainfly are staked out at a 45-degree angle and tightened with sliders.
• Staking: Stakes are driven at a 45° angle through web loops at the base of the tent to secure it to the ground, ensuring the floor is taut. Ground vents on either side of the tent are also staked out.
• Room Divider: A divider curtain can be installed for privacy by attaching its plastic toggles to corresponding loops on the tent wall.
• Lighting Operation:
  • For Option 1 (D-batteries): Insert 4-D batteries into the battery pack, slide the pack into an internal pocket, zip up the pouch, and plug the pack cord into the lighting connector.
  • For Option 2 (Rechargeable Power Pack): Slide the power pack into an internal pocket, zip up the pouch, and plug the lighting connector into the port on the power pack.
  • Lighting is controlled by buttons on a switch box located on either the inside or outside of the tent.
• Wind Conditions: For best results in windy conditions, position the narrow end of the tent into the wind.
• Condensation Management: Condensation can occur due to water vapor. It is not leakage. Minimizing it involves removing wet clothing and ensuring good ventilation through the tent.
• Portability: Comes with a carry bag for storage and transport.

Maintenance Features:

• Cleaning: Clean the tent with a soft sponge, mild soap, and tepid water. Scrub gently, remove all soap, and let it dry in sunlight.
• Storage: Always dry the tent thoroughly and brush off caked dirt before storing. Do not pack stakes inside the tent; use a separate storage bag.
• Seam Sealing: While factory-treated, additional moisture protection can be achieved by applying a seam sealing compound. This is recommended during initial setup and prior to each camping season.
• Battery Removal: IMPORTANT: Remove the battery pack before taking down the tent to prevent battery drain and potential damage to the fabric.
• Staking Precautions: STAKES SHOULD BE REMOVED BY PULLING ON THE STAKE ITSELF. NEVER PULL ON THE TENT TO REMOVE STAKE.
• UV Exposure: Prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause fabric to fade and deteriorate, which is not covered by the warranty.
• Replacement Parts: Replacement parts are available by contacting customer service.
• Warranty Service: Contact customer service for warranty service, repair parts, or product questions. The warranty is valid only for products purchased from approved and authorized distributors.
