This document provides assembly and care instructions for the Martha Stewart Kids' Camper Play Tent, model G78102. It's a children's play tent designed to resemble a camper, offering an imaginative play space.

Function Description:

The Martha Stewart Kids' Camper Play Tent is a portable, indoor play structure for children. Its primary function is to provide a dedicated, enclosed space for imaginative play, mimicking the appearance of a camper. The tent is designed for easy assembly and disassembly, making it suitable for use in various indoor settings. It encourages creative role-playing and provides a cozy retreat for children.

Important Technical Specifications:

The tent structure is composed of various poles and connectors, which form a stable frame over which a fabric cover is fitted.

Fabric: The outer shell is made of 100% Polycotton. This blend combines the breathability of cotton with the durability and wrinkle resistance of polyester.

- Part B: 4-way Connector (4 units)
- Part C: 3-way Connector (4 units)
- Part D: 2-way Connector (2 units)
- Part E: Curved Pole (4 units) - Length: 32.3" (820mm)
- Part F: Straight Pole (4 units) - Length: 33.5" (850mm)
- Part G: Straight Pole (4 units) - Length: 35.2" (895mm)
- Part H: Straight Pole (2 units) - Length: Not specified, but visually shorter than F and G.
Assembly Method: The tent relies on a tension-based assembly system where poles are firmly seated into connectors by twisting and pushing. This method ensures the stability of the frame and a snug fit for the fabric cover.
Safety: The product includes a warning to keep the tent away from fire and sources of heat. Adult assembly is required.

Usage Features:

Imaginative Play: The camper design, complete with windows and a door, stimulates imaginative play scenarios, allowing children to pretend they are on a camping trip or an adventure.
Indoor Use: The tent is specifically designed for indoor use, as indicated by the care instructions ("For indoor use only") and the warning about colors fading in direct sunlight.
Portability: While not explicitly stated, the modular design with separate poles and connectors suggests that the tent can be disassembled and stored, making it relatively portable within an indoor environment.
Easy Assembly (with caveats): The instructions emphasize the importance of firmly connecting poles to ensure the cover fits correctly. This highlights a key aspect of its design: proper assembly is crucial for the tent's structural integrity and appearance.
Velcro Connections: Step 5 indicates that Velcro is used on the inside of the tent, likely for securing the fabric cover to the frame or for other structural connections.

Maintenance Features:

Fabric Care:
- Washing: The 100% Polycotton fabric cover is machine washable in cold water (30°C).
- Drying: It should be air-dried.
- Bleaching: Do not bleach the fabric.
- Wrinkle Removal: If wrinkles occur, a steamer on a low heat setting can be used, with caution to avoid direct contact with the fabric.
Color Fastness: The instructions note that colors may fade if the outer shell is left in direct sunlight for long periods, reinforcing its designation for indoor use.
Inspection: Users are advised to thoroughly inspect the product for missing or defective parts immediately after opening the carton.
Customer Service: Guidecraft Customer Service is available for support in the U.S. and Canada, with contact information provided.
Limited Warranty: The product comes with a one-year limited warranty from the date of purchase for the original purchaser. Proof of purchase is required for replacement parts.

Assembly Process Overview:

The assembly is broken down into six steps:

Step 1: Assemble the base frame using poles (F, D, G) and 4-way connectors (B). The instruction emphasizes twisting and pushing poles into connectors simultaneously to ensure a firm connection.
Step 2: Attach the curved poles (E) to the base frame.
Step 3: Construct the roof frame using poles (H, G) and 3-way connectors (C), then attach it to the top of the curved poles.
Step 4: Drape the main tent cover (A) over the assembled frame.
Step 5: Flip the tent upside down to connect the internal Velcro fasteners.
Step 6: Attach additional components, possibly decorative or structural, as indicated by the "2x" label and the visual representation of a small flap or attachment point.

The design prioritizes a snug fit and stability through tension, making careful assembly a key factor in the final appearance and functionality of the play tent.
