into the awning pockets

(Fig 3).

5-Raise the tent by bending the end poles until they go

over their corresponding pole pins (Fig 4)*.

6-Attach the pole clips to the end poles (Fig 5).

9-Center the tent on the back of the vehicle. Make sure the

lower sleeve is above the vehicle’s muffler. Lower the rear

hatch door just enough to buckle the lower sleeve’s E strap

over it (Fig 11). Adjust the strap to provide a snug fit when

the rear hatch door is raised again.

CAUTION: Don’t use excessive force when bending the

tent poles. Make sure the pole sleeves slide over the

poles without hanging up.
