Troubleshooting
Tent is difficult to open or close.
Ensure all latches are fully disengaged before opening. Check for any obstructions around the frame. Lubricate moving parts of the assisted opening mechanism if necessary, following manufacturer guidelines.
Water ingress during rain.
Verify that the UPVC cover is fully zipped and sealed. Check the seams of the tent fabric for any damage or wear. Ensure the flysheet is properly positioned and taut.
Condensation inside the tent.
Maximize ventilation by opening vents or windows slightly, even in cooler weather. Ensure the anti-condensation mattress is correctly positioned. Avoid breathing directly onto the tent walls.
Mattress feels uncomfortable or uneven.
Ensure the mattress is fully seated within the tent floor. Check that the mattress cover is fitted correctly. If the mattress is new, allow a few days of use for it to fully conform.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure your vehicle is equipped with sturdy roof bars or a roof rack system rated to support the tent's weight (45kg, plus occupants). Mount the tent securely onto the bars following the provided instructions. The assisted opening mechanism allows for rapid deployment once the latches are released. The telescopic ladder can be adjusted to the desired height for safe entry and exit.

Care: After use, ensure the tent is thoroughly dry before packing it into the waterproof UPVC cover to prevent mold and mildew. Clean the fabric periodically with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary; avoid harsh chemicals. Inspect all fixings and straps regularly for wear and tear. Store the tent in a dry, protected area when not in use.
