NEMO Equipment BURRIT - Manual (Page 4)

BURRITO Product Manual Reference Text
1. When you receive your tent, inspect the box for
damage. Do not use a knife or sharp object to open the
box. You don’t want to slice your new tent!
2. Layout the contents of your shipment and make sure that
you received your tent and the following items: stuff sack,
replacement bladder with black fitting, stakes, Silnet,
Seamgrip, 2 nozzles, and repair kit. Also confirm that you
received any optional items you may have ordered
including: Nemoid™ foot pump, Integrated Pump, t-shirts or
accessories.
3. Burrito comes with two types of seam sealer. Seam
sealing adds strength and waterproofness to the tent and is
also useful for making repairs. Use the Silnet for the EPIC
and sil-nylon fabric shell of the tent. Use the Seamgrip for
the airbeams and tent floor. Allow to dry overnight. Note
that both seam sealers can stick to themselves even after
curing, so it is best to lightly dust fully cured areas with
talcum powder. Please visit
www.mcnett.com for more
information.
4. Before using your tent on an expedition, familiarize
yourself with its operation and features.
5. When you pack your tent for a trip, be sure to include
your NEMO pumps. NEMO AirSupported™ tents pack
small because they don’t have poles!
6. Choose your campsite carefully. Avoid areas with
uneven ground, under trees or near tall objects which may
attract lightning, near open flames or smoldering campfires,
or areas of fragile vegetation. Also consider the direction of
the sun and wind.
7. Begin the setup of your tent by staking it out. This way
you have the option of inflating the tent from the inside.
8. Connect the pump to the inflation valve on the Valve
Interface. If using the Nemoid™ foot pump, be sure the red
intake valve on the pump is open. Conversely, if using the
Integrated Pump, be sure the valve on top of the pump is
closed.
9. When properly connected, the CPC quick-disconnect
fittings will make an audible click.
10. Be sure the deflation cap is clean and screwed on
tightly before inflating the tent. Make a quick visual check
that the airlines and airbeams are laid out without any
major kinks or twists.
11. Step on the Nemoid™ foot pump to inflate the tent.
Allow a short time between steps for the pump to refill with
air. Do not use the foot pump on top of sharp objects.
Inflating Burrito takes as little as 15 seconds with the
Nemoid™ pump.
12. Inflation takes as little as 15 seconds with the
Nemoid™ foot pump.
13. NEMO AirSupported™ tents are designed to be very
strong between 5 and 7 psi. You have achieved adequate
pressure when it becomes difficult to pinch the airbeam
together with your fingers. Do not over-inflate! The airbeams
are designed to tolerate pressures up to 25 psi in case an
increase in air temperature causes the air inside the airbeam
to expand. To be safe, if you setup your tent in cold weather
and the temperature increases significantly, release some air
to keep the pressure between 5 and 7 psi. Failure to do this
in the case of extreme temperature changes can cause the
airbeams to explode!
14. Burrito has vents at both ends which can be opened by
extending the struts and securing them to the hook and loop
patches.
15. When closed, the side doors of Burrito can also be used
as vents. These are either held open with struts or by guying
them out.
16. Enjoy a good night sleep in your beautiful new tent. With
the doors down, Burrito offers maximum ventilation and is
great for stargazing!
17. To take the tent down, begin by unscrewing the deflation
valve. Unscrew the cap slowly to allow the pressure to
decrease before the cap is released.
18. Roll the tent along the airbeams to squeeze out all the
air.
19. With your foot on the accessory pocket of the stuff sack,
stuff the tent into the large mesh pocket.
20. Roll the stuff sack up and secure it with the compression
strap.
21. To pack the Nemoid™ pump, first close the red intake
valve and then squeeze the pump. This will squeeze the air
out of the pump, making it very compact for carrying. Simply
toss the pump into the mesh pocket of the stuff sack with the
tent, or into your backpack or pannier. Do not leave the foot
pump compressed for more than a few days or it may not
return to its original shape.
22. Be sure to stay well hydrated during your adventures!
Dehydration is a leading source of injury in the backcountry!
23. Be alert for signs of changing weather. Stop in time to
find a campsite away from possible flooding and other risks.
24. Begin the setup of your tent by staking it out. This way
you have the option of inflating the tent from the inside. This
is a unique advantage of NEMO AirSupported™ tents! If it’s
raining, remember to close all zippers, including the Pump
Pocket!
25. Once inside the tent, remove the Integrated Pump from
the Pump Pocket and open the outside Pump Pocket zipper.
Reach through the Pump Pocket to connect the Integrated
Pump to the Valve Interface.
26. Burrito inflates in as little as 30 seconds with the
Integrated Pump.
