Setup Instructions
The Ozark Trail 10-Person Instant Cabin Tent features pre-attached poles for a quick and efficient setup. It is recommended that two people set up the tent.
- Unpack and Lay Out: Remove the tent from its carry bag. Lay the tent body flat on the ground at your desired campsite, ensuring the floor is spread out evenly.
- Extend Poles: Locate the pre-attached poles. Gently lift the center of the tent and extend each leg pole outwards until it locks into place. Ensure all joints are fully extended and locked.
- Raise Tent: Once all poles are extended and locked, the tent structure will stand upright.
- Secure Tent: Stake down the four corners of the tent. For added stability, attach and stake out the guy ropes.
- Attach Rainfly: Drape the rainfly over the top of the tent, aligning the doors and windows. Secure the rainfly to the tent poles or base using the attached clips or ties. This provides additional weather protection.

LED Lighted Poles
The tent features built-in LED lighted poles with adjustable brightness settings.

Electrical Port
An electrical port is provided for convenient access to power inside the tent.
- Usage: Unzip the small opening on the tent wall marked with an electrical plug icon. Pass an extension cord through this opening to bring power inside.
- Closure: Zip the opening closed around the cord to minimize insect entry and maintain weather resistance.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Clean the tent with a soft sponge, mild soap, and lukewarm water. Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before packing.
- Drying: Always ensure the tent is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew and damage to the water-resistant coating.
- Storage: Store the tent in its carry bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Pole Care: Inspect poles for damage before and after each use. Clean any dirt or debris from pole sections and joints.
- Water Resistance: The tent has a 1,200 mm PU water-resistant coating. Over time, this coating may degrade. Re-apply a suitable tent waterproofing spray as needed to maintain water resistance.
Troubleshooting
- Tent Not Standing Firmly: Ensure all pre-attached poles are fully extended and locked into place. Check that the tent is properly staked down and guy ropes are taut.
- Water Leakage: Verify the rainfly is correctly positioned and secured over the tent. Check for any tears or punctures in the fabric. Consider re-applying a waterproofing treatment if the tent is older.
- Zipper Issues: If zippers stick, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or silicone spray. Avoid forcing zippers. Ensure fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth.
- LED Lights Not Working: Check the battery compartment (if applicable, though not specified, assume internal power for pre-attached poles). Ensure the power button is pressed correctly to cycle through settings.
