4. Setup Instructions

Setting up your DREAMVAN bounce house is quick and easy, typically taking 3-5 minutes.

1. Prepare the Area: Choose a flat, clear, and soft surface for setup. Lay down the provided tarp or a similar protective sheet to prevent damage to the bounce house material.
2. Unroll the Bounce House: Carefully unroll the inflatable castle onto the prepared surface. Ensure the air intake tube is extended and free from kinks.
3. Connect the Blower: Attach the air intake tube of the bounce house to the air blower. Secure it tightly using the provided straps or ties to prevent air leakage.
4. Position the Blower: Place the blower on a stable, dry surface away from the bounce house. Use the blower stakes to secure it to the ground if setting up outdoors.
5. Inflate: Plug the blower into a suitable electrical outlet and turn it on. The bounce house will begin to inflate rapidly. Ensure all air vents are closed.
6. Secure the Bounce House: Once fully inflated and firm (this usually takes about 15 seconds), use the product stakes to anchor the bounce house to the ground at all designated points. This is crucial for stability and safety.

The DREAMVAN bounce house offers multiple play features for children:

• Ball Pit/Pool Area: The front section can be used as a ball pit (balls not included) or filled with water to create a splash pool. Ensure water is drained completely after use.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Regularly wipe down the bounce house with a damp cloth and mild soap. For the water pool section, adding a cap of bleach to the water can help prevent mold buildup. After water use, ensure the entire unit is thoroughly dried before storage to prevent mildew.
• Drying: After outdoor use, especially with water, allow the bounce house to air dry completely before deflating and storing.
• Storage: Deflate the bounce house by turning off the blower and detaching the air tube. Fold it neatly and store it in the provided carrying bag in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Patch Kit: In case of small punctures or tears, use the included patch kit for repairs. Follow the instructions provided with the patch kit for proper application.

7. Troubleshooting

• Bounce House Not Inflating: Check that the air blower is securely attached to the bounce house's air intake tube and that the tube is not twisted or obstructed. Ensure the blower is plugged in and turned on. Verify that all air vents on the bounce house are closed.
• Loss of Air: Small air leaks are normal due to the continuous airflow design. However, if there's a significant loss of air, inspect the bounce house for any large tears or open zippers/velcro closures. Use the patch kit for minor repairs.
• Blower Overheating: Ensure the blower's air intake and exhaust are clear of debris. Do not cover the blower. If it overheats, turn it off and allow it to cool down before restarting.
