• New tent foil (with a fresh anti -moisture layer of wax on it), so usually early in its first season
of use;
• The tent fully or partially opened, whereby the foil is stacked behind the swimming pool ánd
bright sun is shining on this stacked foil;
• The foil was damp on opening the tent.
A combination of the above factors may cause the anti-moisture wax to melt, resulting in the
foil layers being pasted together. When you, later on the day (when the foil is cooled down),
pull up the tent (to close it) the pasted layers will come loose but the foil will be deformed in
some places. To prevent this: If the above combination of factors occurs, it is advisable to
protect the stacked foil (behind the pool) from bright sunshine by covering it with something
dark. If the sun does not shine on the stacked foil, this is not necessary.
5. The SunnyTent is suitable for a variety of uses. The most common use is to cover a swimming
pool, sandpit, trampoline and/or kitchen garden. The SunnyTent, however, is sometimes used to
temporarily store products that are required to stay dry. Keep in mind that sufficient ventilation
is required to prevent stored products from spoiling etc.
6. In case you use an automatic lawnmower (robot), please make sure that it cannot bump into
the SunnyTent, in order to prevent damage to the tent.
7. You can close the SunnyTent entirely, open it entirely (fold it backwards) or partly open it.
• Attention: follow the safety guidelines carefully to prevent serious injury or worse.
• At a low wind speed (forecast) of maximum 3 Bft., you can leave the SunnyTent partly open.
Especially if the wind is coming from the other side than the opening side. The partially opened
tent should be secured with the supplied tension rope, as described in the installation-instructions.
• At a wind speed (forecast) of between 3 and 5 Bft., it is not recommended to leave the tent
partially opened. Especially if the wind aligns with the opening of the tent, which could
create the risk of the tent being blown down. In this case, you are required to either leave
the tent completely opened or completely closed (with all pegs pinned down). Warning: Do
not play or stay in an enclosed SunnyTent.
• At a wind speed (forecast) of between 5 and 7 Bft., it is recommended that you either
close the SunnyTent completely (and pin it down sufficiently with the supplied pegs or the
special "hard-surface-installation-set") or keep it open (fold it backwards completely) and
put sufficient weight on it, to keep the tent canvas firmly in place.
• At a wind speed (forecast) of 7 Bft. or higher, you are required to open the SunnyTent
completely (fold it backwards) and put sufficient weight on top of the tent canvas to keep the
tent firmly in place.
• In case of (expected) heavy winds (or gusts of wind), it is advised to check all the pegs /
secure materials. In case of heavy winds, please also use the plastic secure pegs to secure
the twist pegs, as demonstrated in the Installation-instruction-video.
• Snow and glazed frost piling up on the SunnyTent may cause damage. Therefore, you need to
open the SunnyTent completely (by folding it backwards) when snow or glazed frost is expected.
• Never leave the SunnyTent open unattended. Closely monitor the weather and weather forecasts,
to prevent the SunnyTent from being lifted from the anchors and from getting damaged itself
or from causing injury or damage to others or their property.
8. In case you use the SunnyTent above your swimming pool, the placement of the so-called
