OK, what's the trick? I'm trying to figure out how to detach the large side panel on the dome. Awning mode. The side curtains roll and tie up fine. I can't figure how to detach the side one. It unzips to the bottom but has some kind of weird zipper clasp I cannot get to release.

Really, I can untie my own shoes, but can't unzip this thing.

Thanks!

You are not the first to struggle with it. It's just a matter of holding your mouth right.. We got so frustrated putting it back on after the first and only time we removed it completely, that we never did it again. We would just roll it at the bottom, and move our dome rug out a bit to cover and protect it.

Thanks for the heads up furpod. We did wonder how we would get it back on *if* we figured out how to get it off. Ended up just rolling it to one side and tying off. First time we set it up as an awning. It does work well and survived a pretty dramatic thunderstorm last night.
