SAFETY iNSTRUCTioNS
• Observe the safety instructions for every device used in the tent.
• Always ensure free access to passage ways, exits and air inlets.
• Inform yourself of the site regulations and observe the safety precautions with regard to fire.
• Avoid allowing substances that may be hazardous to your health, such as cooker or car fumes, into the
tent (e.g. for the Drive Base/Van models).
• Wear shoes. Tent pegs or other anchors may have sharp edges.
• Do not arrange the guy lines across or on footpaths - you or others may trip over them in the dark.
• UV rays will damage the fabric and the coating. Whenever possible, pitch your tent in the shade.

PiTCHiNG PoSiTioN:
• Pitch your tent in a place protected against wind
and not in depressions in which water can build up.
• Set up the tent in a suitable wind direction – Entran-
ce in the wind shadow.
• Bear in mind that if you pitch close to water, more
dampness from condensation may build up in your
tent.
• Do not pitch your tent in dangerous places: for ex-
ample, in ravines, below rocks, near rivers which
feed from glaciers, next to fire areas or in the
woods.
• Remove pointed or sharp-edged objects which
could damage the tent floor.
• To protect the tent floor, a groundsheet is recom-
mended.
• Whenever possible, pitch your tent in the shade -
avoid the full sun.
• When camping in the snow and in very cold tempe-
ratures, dig a „cold trench" the apse in which the
cold air will collect.
• Remove any snow loads from the tent in good time.
ENGLISH
• To avoid the risk of fire and asphyxiation, do not
cook inside the tent. If it is unavoidable, make sure
you have sufficient air supply and locate the coo-
ker as far away from the tent walls as possible. To
achieve this, you may detach the inner tent and fold
it out of the way.
ASSEmBLY – GENERAL iNFoRmATioN:
VAUDE tents are easy to assemble. If one of the steps
is not going smoothly, do not use force but instead find
out what the problem is.
• Spread the tent out on the ground (the inner and
outer tents are connected when shipped). If it is
windy, we recommend securing the tent on a ruck-
sack, rock, etc.
• Spread the poles out and put them together - do
not throw. Make sure that the segment connec-
tions are seamless, otherwise they could break
when bent. Push them into the channels rather
than pulling them.
• Put up the tent in a manner that avoids putting ex-
