Troubleshooting
Sleep system is unstable or wobbly.
Ensure all six legs are fully extended and locked. Adjust individual leg heights to level the system on uneven ground. Check that the frame hinges are securely locked in place.
Sleeping bag zipper is difficult to operate.
Check for any obstructions or fabric caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth. Ensure the anti-jam beading is clear of debris.
Sleeping bag is not warm enough in very cold conditions.
Ensure all draft baffles and zip-locks are properly engaged to minimize heat loss. Consider using an additional thermal liner or wearing appropriate base layers inside the sleeping bag.
Frame does not fold flat easily.
Ensure the legs are fully retracted and locked in their collapsed position. Check that the double fold hinges are clear of dirt or debris that might impede movement.
