can be weakened by prolonged exposure to sunlight and use for extended periods in strong
sunlight will soon cause deterioration. UV degradation is not covered under the AIR OPUS
warranty. The warranty does not cover air tents used permanently or for display purposes.
WEATHERING OF SPECIAL THREAD USED FOR SEWING
Your AIR OPUS tent has been manufactured using a special thread which expands and swells to
®
close the holes made when stitching the product. The thread swells and expands when wet.
It may take a few times for the holes to completely close.
INFLATABLE TECHNOLOGY
The technology used in your AIR OPUS
specially constructed grey tube which is held in position with a retaining sleeve within the tent/
flysheet. The zips on the grey sleeves are fastened with a fabric tie and should only be untied if
you need to replace or repair a bladder. If you remove the ties fastening the zips, please ensure
you secure the zips with the ties, in a closed position before re-inflation.
IMPORTANT! UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES REMOVE FASTENING TIES AND
UNFASTEN ZIPS WHILE BLADDERS ARE INFLATED. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS
INSTRUCTION WILL RESULT IN BLADDER FAILURE.
Please note that it may be necessary to monitor the AIR pressure in your AIR tubes from time to
time, especially if the weather is fluctuating or the temperature is higher than average or colder
than average.
Hot Weather - when the outside temperature rises it is probable that the pressure in the AIR
tubes may increase and it will therefore be necessary to monitor the AIR tubes and release AIR
using the external valves as required.
Cold Weather - a drop of pressure should not be considered a leak or puncture until further
investigated. When the outside temperature drops it is probable that the pressure in the AIR tubes
may decrease and it may therefore be necessary to monitor the AIR tubes and top up the AIR
pressure as necessary.
A repair kit is enclosed with your AIR tent and includes an emergency repair patch for repair of
small holes in your bladder.
