Coleman Tent Setup Instructions

Before you begin

• Read all instructions before set up.
• Select a level site clear of rocks, branches, and other hard or sharp objects, to install your tent.
• ⚠️ WARNING: Keep clear of overhead power lines.
• Do not set up your tent under trees because of potential lightning strikes or falling tree limbs in inclement weather.
• ℹ️ NOTICE: Secure product with all ground stakes, guylines and velcro straps for optimal performance and to prevent property damage or personal injury.
• For best results in windy conditions, position narrow end of tent into the wind.
• Enlist the help of at least one other person to assist you when it is time to assemble the tent.

How to Store

1. All poles and stakes must be placed in the storage bag to prevent damage to the fabric items placed in the carry case.
2. Make sure tent is clean and dry before placing in carry case.
3. Remove rainfly, spread out on floor of tent, then unzip door & vents before taking tent down for storage.
4. Neatly fold tent to width of pole storage bag, then place pole storage bag on tent, roll tightly, and place in carry case.
5. Store in a clean, dry area.

Things You Should Know

• Under certain conditions (cold weather, high humidity, etc.) condensation will form on the inside of your tent. Condensation is caused by water vapor from your breath, perspiration, or any wet clothing inside the tent. It is NOT LEAKAGE through the tent fabric. It can be minimized by removing wet clothing from your tent and by providing good ventilation through the tent.
• Tree limbs, tree sap, bird droppings, or moisture steadily dripping off tree limbs can cause damage to the tent fabric and its coating resulting in leaks or loss of flame-resistant properties.
• Never store tent, even for a short period of time, without drying it thoroughly and brushing off caked dirt. Do not pack stakes or poles inside your tent. Use a separate storage bag.
• Stakes should be removed by pulling on the stake itself. NEVER PULL ON THE TENT TO REMOVE STAKES AS THIS COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY.
• Tent poles should not be left telescoped together during storage.
• Do not leave your tent set-up for weeks at a time. Be aware that exposure to ultraviolet rays from the sun can seriously damage material and/or cause it to become discolored.

WARNING: KEEP ALL FLAME AND HEAT SOURCES AWAY FROM THIS TENT FABRIC.

This tent meets the flammability requirements of CPAI-84. The fabric may burn if left in continuous contact with any flame source. The application of any foreign substance to the tent fabric may render the flame-resistant properties ineffective. (For U.S.A. Only)

How to get repair kit number

Note: To get the replacement kit number, you can compare the end of the pole with the circles on below table, or measure diameter of the pole end.

Visual representation: A table with two columns: 'Diameter' and 'Pole Repair Kit'. Rows list diameters from 6.0 mm to 12.7 mm with corresponding kit numbers. Below the table, a circular graphic is implied for comparison.

Pole List
