Turn your Therm-a-Rest LuxuryLite Cot into a no-bug zone by adding the convenient LuxuryLite Bug Shelter! Gear Specialist Luke demonstrates how to set up the Bug Shelter for maximum bug-free comfort.

How to Set Up the Therm-A-Rest LuxuryLite Bug Shelter

Slip the loops over the feet underneath and tighten the straps to secure

1. After setting up the LuxuryLite Cot, line up the bottom mesh panel of the bug shelter with the cot’s surface. Slip the loops in all four corners over the feet underneath and tighten the straps to secure

2. Insert the ends of the hubbed pole into the metal tabs on all four corners.

Helpful Hint: the pole system is symmetrical, it doesn’t matter which end you connect first!

3. Attach the mesh body to the pole, starting with the centermost clip and working outward. This creates even distribution and prevents undue stress on the clips.

The LuxuryLite Cot and Bug Shelter are compatible with the LuxuryLite Sun Shield for protection from all the elements- insect or otherwise!
