3. SETUP 3.1 LAYING OUT THE TENT Take the tent out of the supplied transport bag and lay it out at your setup location with the roof facing up. It helps arrange the tent in such a way that the tube ends are positioned approximately where they will be when the tent is inflated.
3.2.2 OVERPRESSURE VALVE On each tube there is a red overpressure valve that automatically opens once the maximum air pressure in the tube has been reached. The overpressure valve prevents the tube from bursting if the air pressure inside is too high. Because it is a safety-related part, special attention should be given to it.
3.3.2 INFLATION WITH THE HAND PUMP The included hand pump is equipped with various adapters that allow connection to different valves. The TIP: Note the hose should not be kinked or compressed as this could valve plug at the top result in leaks or breakage! of the pump body: OPEN...

4.1.3 CONNECTING A TUBE BALLAST TO THE TENT TUBE Tube Ballasts can be attached to the inside or outside of the tubes. Make sure that the rubber-reinforced side of the ballast is facing the ground. Take the end of the webbing with the buckle insertion part and thread it upward through the anchoring ring on the tube end (a) and then through the webbing loop on the Tube Ballast (b).
• Next, pull the check valve tab forward (c) before filling any remaining space in the barrel with air. It is not necessary to connect the pump directly to the top opening. Instead, the easiest way is to hold the hose of the running pump against the edge of the check valve in the upper opening (d).

5. ELEMENTS 5.1 WALLS The Universal Wall of the XE series offers the option of a wall that can be opened on both sides. This means it can be used multifunctionally as an Entrance- and Standard Wall. 5.1.1 ATTACHING THE WALLS Attach the wall to the tent by connecting the zippers at the top of the wall and then closing them toward the bottom on both the right- and left sides.

• X GLOO tents are not intended to bear large snow loads. In case of snowfall the accumulating snow must be regularly removed from the roof of the tent. If the tent is to be left unattended and snowfall is called for, then the tent should first be deflated or the tube intersection at the top of the tent securely supported.
7. TAKEDOWN 7.1 RELEASE AIR • First remove all optional elements (e.g. walls, canopies, tunnel parts) that are attached to the tent. • Open the valves on each tube (see section 3). PLEASE NOTE: It is recommended to let the tent rest on the ground with the tubes stacked on top of each other after opening the valves.
8. STORAGE • The X GLOO tent must not be packed and stored while wet. This can cause mold stains and mildew. Digitally-printed tent parts could also stain if stored in a damp place. • The X GLOO tent must never be left in a vehicle (for example) in direct sunlight, as exposure to extreme heat can lead to the windows in window walls permanently sticking together, damage to the fabric or to strong staining.
10.1 MATERIAL • All materials used have been carefully selected for their resistance to change from light exposure and have been subjected to rigorous tests. Nevertheless, the material may change color (fade) if there is strong UV exposure (when set up at high altitudes or through a long period of use).
Attachment of the new protection strip is done in reverse order. When tensioning the webbing, make sure there is about 2 cm of space between the end of the roof and the 10.4 IN THE EVENT OF PRESSURE LOSS • FIRST, be sure that all valves are closed tightly! •...
10.6 REPLACING A VALVE Both the inflation/deflation valve and the overpressu- re valve can easily be unscrewed by hand. To do this, grip the valve socket firmly from the outside in order to TIP: For an optimally wrinkle-free achieve the necessary torque.
