POWER CORD MAINTENANCE
In the course of using your Admiral ATV-NAV, the power cord may become twisted or tangled.
The Admiral ATV-NAV Power Kink Resistant Cord Advantage
The Admiral ATV-NAV Robotic Pool Cleaner has a specifically designed power kink resistant cord using it’s one piece extruded technology that
prevents the cord from delaminating, protecting the internal wires from shorting out and extending it’s operating life.
If you refer to the power cord (Fig 10 below), there are no layers as the cable & wires are manufactured simultaneously. The coating of the
cable is injected with air to form small pockets that allow it to float, so the outer layer takes the place of (3) layers of a typical cable.
The Admiral ATV-NAV is equipped with the Floating Swivel to prevent power cord tangling, but the following five points can further prevent or greatly
reduce tangling of the power cord:
1) Make sure there are no objects in the pool during the cleaning cycle for the power cord to get caught on (pool ropes, toys, etc).
2) Only allow enough power cord in the pool for full coverage/do not put excess power cord in the pool
(Example 8m pool doesn’t need 18m of power cord).
3) The Admiral ATV-NAV should not be connected to a timing device and left continuously within a pool or spa.
4) Remove the Admiral ATV-NAV from the pool and uncoil the power cord from the power supply after every cleaning cycle to release
any tension in the power cord.
5) The Admiral ATV-NAV is designed to work with water at a temperatures greater than 13ºC (55ºF) and less than 45ºC (113ºF).
The cleaner should never be operated outside of these temperatures or damage may occur.
In the event that the 15m section of the power does coil on itself, it can easily be straightened by following the below instructions.
■
Turn the power supply to the OFF position.
■
Remove the cleaner from the pool and place it on the far
end of the pool/yard area as shown in Fig 11.
■
Unplug the 15m length of power cord from the power supply.
■
Be sure to use a clear area that will allow the power cord
to stretch out in a straight line.
■
Hold the black collar at the plug end and gently lift the
cable off the ground
■
Gently pull on the cable and turn the cable with your fingers.
■
The swivel will rotate as tension is applied, eliminating the coils in the cable.
■
Return to normal cleaner use or store on Admiral ATV-NAV Caddy as shown in Fig C next page.
