Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up the tent is straightforward due to the dome construction; slide the flexible fiberglass rods through the pole sleeves, insert the ends into the grommets, and secure with the included pegs. To maintain the tent, always ensure it is completely dry before packing it into the carry bag to prevent mold and mildew growth. If the tent gets dirty, clean the fabric using a soft brush and lukewarm water; avoid harsh detergents that may damage the waterproof coating. Store the tent in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods.
