Vaude FERRET XT 3P Bedienungsanleitung Seite 13

Use a brush to rub nikwax Tech wash in a 1:4 ratio with water on stub-
born stains. Follow up with nikwax Tent & gear Solarproof waterproo-
fing, applying generously to the area cleaned.
• When on the road, repair tears in the tent wall with repair tape and seal
from the inside with a PU or silicon seam sealer. The seam should however
be correctly repaired as soon as possible in order to prevent further
tearing. Please contact your retailer to do this.
• Tent pole shock cords can be retightened if necessary (elasticity can wear
out in very cold conditions or due to aging). To do this first remove the end
cap and then untie the knot in the cord. Retie the knot further up the cord
and replace the cap.
TECHniCal DETailS:
Depending on tent models, VAUDE tents feature the following:
fEaTUrES:
Siliconized:
• Increases tent life by 20% - a triple coating reflects damaging UV radiation
to a much greater degree than standard treatments.
• 8-times greater tear resistance – siliconized fabrics attain a tear resistance
of 8-11 kg compared to 1.3 kg of PU coated fabrics.
• Excellent water beading properties – water simply beads on the surface.
• Retensioning – the nylon carrier material swells up when damp or wet.
The tent needs to be retensed if rain/snow initiate.
• Sealing – siliconized materials cannot be factory seam sealed (exception:
VAUDE Silicon Seam Seal). When camping in extremely rainy conditions
we recommend sealing all seams by hand with a silicon seam sealer.
flY:
Tear-resistant 40D polyamide ripstop pU/Si; waterproof to 5,000 mm.
• High resistance to tearing due to tensile polyamide fabric embedded with
reinforcing fibres.
• PU/SI - Polyurethane coating to the inner surfaces for maximum comfort
due to reduced condensation build-up. Triple silicon coating to the outer
surfaces for increased tear-resistance, UV-resistance and water run-off.
