Troubleshooting

Ensure webbing straps are tightened securely around the car's door frame or body panels. Adjust positioning for a better fit.
Tent is unstable in light wind
Verify that all stakes are fully inserted into the ground and that guy ropes are properly tensioned. Use all available anchoring points.
Water is leaking into the tent
Check for any punctures or tears in the fabric. Ensure all seams are properly sealed and that the PU coating is intact. Re-apply seam sealer if necessary (sold separately).
Difficulty assembling poles
Ensure poles are correctly aligned and inserted into the pole sleeves. Check for any obstructions or damage to the poles or sleeves.
