Installation ･ Please note that excessive force on the product during installation may cause damage.
･ Using damaged products may lead to safety accidents. Contact iKamper After
Service if you believe that your product is damaged.
･ When using the tent, the ladder acts as a support. Therefore, the customer should
inspect the locks of each step of the ladder and confirm ladder is stable. If locks
are faulty or ladder is unstable when the person climbs up, it may cause damage
to the product or cause physical injury.
･ The ground in which the tent is installed should be flat and firm and should be
avoided under the following conditions : slippery places where the ladder is at risk
of being moved, such as rocks, sand, mud, gravel, or angled surfaces.
Use
･ Do not leave your children alone in the tent.
･ Be careful not to fall when using the ladder.
･ The ladder steps can be slippery due to rain, mud, dirt and/or ice.
･ Never use flammables inside the tent.
･ Do not set up the tent near a campfire or fire pit. Embers are very likely to cause
holes in the fabric, which can lead to fire or product damage.
･ The composition of the fabric of the tent is a mix of cotton and it can be affected
by moisture on parts of the fabric depending on the amount of rain or time
exposed to rain. This is not a product defect and is a natural phenomenon due to
the characteristics of the poly-cotton tent. (For more information, please see the
enclosed document with seam sealer.)
･ For safety reasons, tents should not be used in the event of strong winds
exceeding 23mph (10m/sec, 20knot).
･ Please refrain from using it in bad weather conditions (hurricanes, heavy rain,
storms, heavy snow, etc.).
Maintenance ･ Be sure to keep it completely dry.
･ Due to the construction of poly-cotton canvas, it is possible in rare cases that you
may experience slight leaking around seams during heavy rain and wind.
･ Long-term storage in wet conditions can cause fungus, odor, and discoloration,
which can shorten the life of the product.
･ Due to the construction of poly-cotton canvas, it is possible in rare cases that you
may experience slight leaking around seams during heavy rain and wind.
･ Be sure to remove any contaminants or foreign substances, as these can damage
the product.
Hardshell ･ When the hardshell is exposed to the outside elements for a long period of time,
dust, snow, rain, dew, etc. mineral deposits can occur on the hardshell surface
causing gloss to become worn out. Applying a wax coating once every 2 months
will help to prevent this.
･ Do not leave rain or allow snow to melt on your hardshell.
･ If hardshell is going to be exposed to the elements for long periods of time use
included UV protective cover
