ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

CARE

REPLACEMENT PARTS

DO NOT LEAVE YOUR TENT SET UP IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT LONGER THAN NECESSARY. THE SUN’S ULTRAVIOLET (UV) LIGHT

DEGRADES ALMOST EVERY FABRIC AND MATERIAL. IF LEFT IN SUNLIGHT FOR PROLONGED PERIODS OF TIME, FABRIC WILL

FADE AND WEAKEN. DO NOT STORE TENT ON CONCRETE FLOOR. DO NOT SPRAY THE TENT WITH INSECTICIDE.

Your tent is water repellent, however, it is not waterproof. During heavy rain, some leakage may occur. Keep objects from touching the

inside of the tent. Such objects may cause leakage at point of contact. If seam leakage occurs, it can be controlled by applying a seam

sealer compound.

EXERCISE CARE WHEN USING ELECTRIC DEVICES IN AND NEAR TENTS.

Although our tents and screen houses are constructed to rigid specifications, periods of wind or rain soaking the ground may loosen the

stakes and cause the uprights to sink into the ground. This will weaken the rigidity of the overall structure. Water pockets may also form in

the roof if the unit is not assembled taut, possibly causing broken frames and torn fabric.

If you have questions or need to order a part, call 1-800-325-4121 or send an email to contactus@wenzelco.com.

Have your model number or part number ready when you call. DO NOT ORDER BY REFERENCE KEY NUMBER.

SAFETY WARNING -

DOs AND DO NOTs

EVERYONE WHO USES THIS TENT SHOULD READ THIS MANUAL AND BECOME FAMILIAR WITH ALL

SAFETY WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE USE, ASSEMBLY, CARE, MAINTENANCE,

AND STORAGE. KEEP THIS MANUAL SO YOU CAN REFER TO IT LATER.

CARBON MONOXIDE GAS WILL KILL YOU

Stoves, heaters, grills, lantern, candles, and other fuel-burning devices that burn propane, natural gas, charcoal, kerosene, coal, or other fuels produce a toxic gas

called carbon monoxide. Because carbon monoxide gas is invisible, odorless, and colorless, a dangerous level of carbon monoxide gas can accumulate in a tent

which cannot be detected by sight, smell, or taste. For these reasons:

• DO NOT use matches, lighters, stoves, heaters, grills, lanterns, candles, cooking equipment, or other fuel-burning devices inside or near a tent.

• DO NOT build fires inside or near a tent.

• DO NOT leave campfires unattended.

Your failure to follow this warning will cause death, serious injury, or permanent disability to you or others.

PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN

• DO NOT leave children unattended inside a tent or in camp.

• DO NOT allow children to assemble a tent.

• DO NOT allow children to enter or exit a tent except through the door.

• DO NOT allow children to remain in a closed-up tent on hot days.

Your failure to follow this warning will cause death, serious injury, or permanent disability to your children.

FLAMMABILITY WARNING KEEP ALL FLAME AND HEAT SOURCES AWAY FROM THIS TENT FABRIC

This tent is made with flame resistant fabric which meets CPAI-84 specification. IT IS NOT FIREPROOF. The fabric will burn if left in continuous contact with any

flame source. The application of any foreign substance to the tent fabric may render the flame-resistant properties ineffective.

Your failure to follow this warning will cause death, serious injury, or permanent disability to you or others.

CAMPING DO’S AND DON’TS

Fabric: Flame resistant fabric meeting CPAI-84 specification. It is explicitly stated that the fabric is NOT fireproof and will burn if left in continuous contact with a flame source. Application of foreign substances may render flame-resistant properties ineffective.
Water Repellency: The tent fabric is water repellent but not waterproof. Leakage may occur during heavy rain, especially if objects touch the inside walls or if seams are not sealed.
Ventilation: Designed for proper ventilation in all weather conditions. Users are advised to ensure proper ventilation, especially in extreme weather or snow conditions where airflow can be obstructed.
UV Resistance: The fabric is susceptible to degradation from the sun's ultraviolet (UV) light, which can cause fading and weakening over prolonged periods.

Usage Features:

Multi-Room Design: Provides three separate rooms for privacy and organization, ideal for large groups or families.
Awnings: Includes side room awnings and a front awning, offering additional sheltered space and protection from sun or light rain.
Easy Assembly (with practice): The manual emphasizes assembling the tent once before camping to familiarize oneself with the process. The assembly involves extending fiberglass and steel poles, connecting joints, inserting poles into sleeves, and staking the tent and guy ropes.
Door Management: Doors should be unzipped during setup and takedown to allow air to enter/escape and prevent zipper damage.
Stability: Requires staking the tent securely to the ground using steel stakes and guy ropes. In extreme conditions, additional anchoring methods like snow pegs, skis, or heavy rocks may be necessary.
Mud Mat: A mud mat is attached to the front of the tent to help keep the tent floor clean.
Ventilation Control: Users are instructed to ensure the tent is properly ventilated, especially in extreme weather, and to clear any obstructions like snow that might block airflow.

Maintenance Features:

Seam Sealing: It is advisable to apply seam sealer to all exposed seams, specifically to the inside seams of the tent and the underside of the tent fly, to improve weather resistance. Applying to outside seams may cause discoloration.
Cleaning: The tent should be clean before storage.
Drying: The tent must be completely dry before storage to prevent mold or mildew.
Storage:
- Do not store the tent on a concrete floor.
- Fold the tent into equal parts towards the center to distribute bulk.
- Fold the fly and lay it on top of the tent.
- Roll the tent tightly, starting from the end opposite the doors, around the pole bag.
- Tie a string around the rolled tent to hold it in place.
- Store the tent, pole bag, and stake bag in the provided carry bag.
UV Protection: To prolong the tent's life, avoid leaving it set up in direct sunlight longer than necessary, as UV light degrades the fabric.
Water Repellency Maintenance: While water repellent, users should be aware that it's not waterproof. Seam sealer can help manage leakage.
Pole Care: Ensure poles are properly extended and connected during assembly.
General Care: Exercise care when using electric devices in and near the tent. Regularly check for loose stakes or sagging structures, especially after wind or rain, to prevent broken frames or torn fabric.

Safety Warnings (Key Maintenance and Usage Considerations):

Carbon Monoxide Hazard: STRICTLY PROHIBITS the use of stoves, heaters, grills, lanterns, candles, cooking equipment, or any fuel-burning devices inside or near the tent due to the risk of fatal carbon monoxide poisoning. Open fires are also forbidden inside or near the tent, and campfires must never be left unattended.
