1. Torso Length Adjustment: The Tempest 20 features an adjustable torso length. Loosen the harness straps and slide the entire harness system up or down to match your torso. The top of the shoulder straps should sit approximately 1-2 inches below your shoulders, allowing for a comfortable wrap over your shoulders.
2. Hipbelt Fitting: Position the hipbelt so that the top edge rests on your iliac crest (hip bones). Cinch the hipbelt firmly using the ErgoPull closure system for optimal load transfer to your hips. Approximately 60-80% of the pack's weight should be supported by your hips.
3. אַדזשאַסטמאַנט אַקסל רימען: Tighten the shoulder straps until the pack is snug against your back. Avoid overtightening, which can lift the hipbelt off your hips and transfer too much weight to your shoulders.
4. סטערנום רימען: Fasten the sternum strap across your chest and adjust its height and tension for comfort. This strap helps stabilize the pack and prevents the shoulder straps from slipping. The sternum strap also includes an integrated whistle for emergencies.

• Top Stash Pocket: The large zippered top pocket, lined with scratch-free fabric, is perfect for sunglasses, electronics, or other delicate items.
• Hydration System: The Tempest 20 is compatible with a hydration reservoir (not included). An internal sleeve and exit port are provided for easy integration of your hydration system.

• סטאָרידזש: Store your clean, dry backpack in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid compressing the pack for long periods.
