Icarus Canopy for the 500 and 600

Vango have made us aware of a couple of missprints in their tent literature for the Icarus 500 Canopy and the Icarus 600 Canopy - after accessing the news article we have copied it here for your benefit;

"Current stock of 2010 Icarus Canopies contain minor errors within the support material which may cause some confusion.

At present the hang tag reads “Designed specifically for our Artemis tent…” when it should read “Designed specifically for our Icarus tent.” All other information on the tag is correct in relation to the Icarus Canopy.

The pitching instructions, which are sewn into the bag which the Icarus canopy comes in, relate to the Sungari canopy. However, please be aware that the actual pitching instructions for the models are exactly the same. The only differences are that at the top of the page there is the word ’Sungari’ rather than ‘Icarus’ and the illustration shows pre-angled poles which are not applicable to the Icarus canopy.

Due to these discrepancies being of a minor nature the Sungari Canopy pitching instructions can be used for the Icarus Canopy and will have no adverse effect on the performance of the Icarus Canopy when it is pitched.

We apologise for any confusion this may have caused people and can assure everybody that the Icarus Canopy itself is great and makes a perfect addition to an already fantastic tent. These are very minor issues which have now been rectified for future production runs."
