What is the grommet bungee dealy for? Read and re-read the directions and I can only guess it is to field repair a torn out stake loop? Ideas? DD

I found my answer on a Crib Review:

It comes with 2 elastic-type bands attached to a grommet which I had no idea what they were. I had to call Marmot to ask where they belonged and they told me in case the tent breaks where it stakes in the ground, they can be used on the go if needed temporarily. This is a great feature, but again I wish I had a manual to tell me that and to show how to actually use them.
