SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The KingShark automatic swimming pool vacuum cleaner has been manufactured
with the highest degree of care and concern for safety. We suggest the following
safety precautions become part of your pool safety regulations:
1. ALWAYS PUT THE MACHINE INTO THE WATER BEFORE TURNING
ON THE POWER SUPPLY.
2. IT IS IMPORTANT FOR SWIMMER’S SAFETY TO REMOVE THE
UNIT IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING USE. THIS WILL ALSO IMPROVE
THE OPERATING LIFE OF YOUR KINGSHARK.
3. BE CERTAIN THE POWER SUPPLY IS ONLY PLUGGED INTO A
GROUNDED ELECTRICAL OUTLET EQUIPPED WITH A GROUND
FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER.
4. DO NOT HANDLE MACHINE WHILE IT IS PLUGGED INTO THE
POWER SUPPLY, AND POWER SUPPLY IS ON.
5. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD. THIS COULD CREATE A
SAFETY HAZARD AND/OR DAMAGE YOUR UNIT.
6. ALWAYS STAY OUT OF THE POOL WHILE CLEANER IS IN
OPERATION.
7. NEVER ALLOW PLUG TO ENTER THE POOL.
8. DO NOT OPERATE THE MACHINE OUT OF WATER. THIS WILL
DAMAGE THE MOTOR SEAL AND VOID THE WARRANTY.
9. DO NOT DRAG THE MACHINE OUT OF THE POOL AGAINST THE
SIDE WALL. THIS COULD DAMAGE UNIT AND/OR YOUR POOL
WALL.
10. SOME POOLS HAVE A CORNER OR A CORNER STEP CON-
FIGURATION THAT MAY CAUSE THE UNIT TO “HANG-UP”;
THEREFORE, DO NOT LEAVE THE UNIT COMPLETELY
UNATTENDED FOR MORE THAN 1/2 HOUR. OCCASIONAL
OBSERVATION AND ATTENDANCE CAN ALSO REDUCE ANY
TENDENCY FOR THE CORD TO TWIST.
While the KingShark has been made to operate as safely as possible, we suggest
you exercise reasonable care in the handling of the vacuum and inspect the electrical
cord frequently for damage or wear, as with any other electrical appliance. After
use, remove the unit and rinse with fresh water and remove any twist that may be
present in the cord.
