  • Page 3 Pitching your tent/awning - Valve Tightening Prior to inflating your new tent or awning it is imperative to check that each of the valves are correctly tightened to prevent any loss of air, this will also need doing periodically throughout the products life, as valves can work loose over time.
  • Page 4 Pitching your awning Unroll the tent/awning and peg the four corners - we recommend the use of a SPS Footprint to keep the bottom of the tent/awning clean. - Pegging points may need adjusting/tightening once the tent/awning is erected. Prior to inflating the tent/awning, unzip a couple of doorways, this allows air to enter the inside whilst inflating and prevents the unit acting like a vacuum, making the erection process easier.
  • Page 5 Pitching your awning Once all tubes are inflated lift the front of the unit and the frame should pop into place, it may be necessary to push the tubes into position from inside the tent/awning. Zip shut any open doorways Peg out the front and rear Storm Straps - Aim to peg these at least 1.5m away from unit - Further the better.
  • Page 6 Packing your awning Disconnect from vehicle, remove side canopy pole and tie guy lines up to prevent tangling. All peg points can be removed bar the corners and storm straps To deflate the tent/awning unscrew the dust cap on the valve and depress the spring button on the valve, repeat this on all the air tubes and the tent/awning will then drop to the floor - open a couple of doorways and this will allow air to escape from inside quickly.
  • Page 7 Packing your tent/awning Place pump, pegs and pole bag on top of awning and roll awning up towards the side with the Speed Valves - This will push any remaining air in the tubes out as you roll. Squeeze as much air out as you can while you roll. Secure the rolled awning with a tie, place the bag on upside down and the roll over in the carry bag (saves having to lift awning into carry bag) Zip Carry bag up and secure webbing straps on bag.
  • Page 9 Q . Are Khyam awnings water resistant? All Khyam flysheet fabrics are coated to withstand in excess of 5000mm head of water in the hydrostatic head test. This is a measure by which we can test the resistance of water penetration. This is the measurement when the fabric is new and in use over a period of time this level will drop.
  • Page 10 OTHER USEFUL POINTS TO BEAR IN MIND. 1. Never remove pegs by pulling up on the poles or fabric by doing this you may damage the pole or awning invalidating the guarantee. Always use a peg puller or another peg 2.
