OPERATIONS AND SAFTEY GUIDE
We are a off grid Glamping experience and Joshua Tree has all types of extreme weather conditions. We monitor these conditions and make adjustments of our amenities based upon them. Example, in the hotter months our AC will run on our gas generator oppose to our solar to ensure guests have power through out the night. We will always inform guests of any updates or changes made before.
Futuro Door and emergency exit:
•Do not push, pull or stand on door as it is opening or closing. Do not grab the cables attached to the door while entering or exiting, please use rails attached to wall.
•In an unlikely event that there is a door malfunction and not opening, there is an emergency escape hatch under middle area rug. Roll back the rug, unlock the hatch and pull the handle door up and exit.
*There is a smoke and carbon monoxide alarm in the Futuro. There are also two fire extinguishers located inside the Futuro. Near the entrance and one by the daybed*
•Heating is a indoor safe propane heater. For use make sure the propane tank is open and Instruction for use is on equipment. REMEMBER TO TURN OFF TANK AND HEATER WHEN NOT USING
ELECTRICITY:
Given that this is off-grid and completely solar powered. Power conservation is advised, and If at any point there is a lost of power the inverter may have had an overload and you will need to go under the Futuro and reset the silver inverter by switching it off and then back on. There is also a backup Power station inside, this may also need to be reset by pressing the AC power button on the back.

•Control the temperature by adjusting the labeled hot and cold dials on system.
Bathroom info:
•There are lights on the inside of the bathroom on the ceiling with an on and off switch.
•If a toilet does not flush, it is because the tank is not filled with water. Simply turn on the water hose just outside to fill the tank (visible to the left of switches) and turn off the hose so that it does not overflow.
• There is a small door just outside the trailer that has 3 white switches for the lights, sink, and toilet. Please check these are on for bathroom function. Also please turn off after use.
