Troubleshooting
Difficulty locking the boss system

Open the rear mosquito vents and the front letterbox door to encourage airflow and ensure the Storm Cap is properly fitted.
Storm poles slipping
Check that the Lok Down mechanisms are tightened securely and the poles are locked at the correct length for your chosen tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the shelter is simplified by the central boss mechanism; simply expand the ribs until the frame locks into place. Use the provided heavy-duty pegs to secure the base, and adjust the two Lok Down storm poles to maintain tension. Always use the included fabric tension strap to ensure the shell is taut, preventing water pooling on the roof. To care for your bivvy, ensure the shelter is completely dry before packing it away in the carry bag to prevent mold growth. Clean the fabric using only a soft brush or sponge and water; avoid harsh chemical detergents which can degrade the waterproof coating.
