Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Unroll the mat and place it on a flat surface.
- Open the Flat High-Flow (FHF) valve.
- Allow the mat to self-inflate. This may take several minutes.
- Once partially inflated, close the valve and manually inflate with a few breaths if a firmer surface is desired.
- Close the valve securely.
Compatibility:
This mat is designed for general camping use and is compatible with most tents and sleeping bags. It is not specifically designed for extreme cold weather conditions, but its insulation properties are suitable for typical 3-season camping.
Care:
- Cleaning: Clean the mat using a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure the mat is completely dry before storing.
- Storage: Store the mat loosely rolled in its carry bag in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. Do not store it under heavy objects, which could compress the foam. Ensure the valve is open or loosely closed during storage to prevent pressure build-up.
- Valve Maintenance: Periodically check the valve for debris and ensure it seals properly. Gently wipe the valve with a damp cloth if necessary.
