make erecting the tent easier.

PACKING INSTRUCTIONS
After you have removed the fly, lay it flat inside the tent. This
makes it easier to fold the tent. Pack the poles and pegs into their
bags. When folding the tent inner, leave all doors and windows
open. Fold the inner tent floor from each side to the centre and in
half again. Adjust to the length of the poles. Place the poles on the
floor and roll them inside so that the floor is on the outside. Store
and pack the tent in its bag.
