It is absolutely essential to select a suitable site for your pool BEFORE attempting to
fill it with any water. Please select a set-up site which strictly conforms to the following
guidelines:
Guide1.
Ensure that the area is firm, flat (no bumps or mounds of earth) and extremely level, with a grade not exceeding
3° of slope at any point in the set-up area.
Guide2.
Make sure that the area you have selected to set-up the pool is completely free of sticks, stones, sharp objects or
other foreign debris.
Guide3.
Select an area that is not directly underneath overhead power lines or trees. Additionally, make sure that the pool
set-up area does not contain underground utility pipes, lines, or cables or any kind.
Guide4.
If a ground cloth is provided with your pool kit, its use is highly recommended. The ground cloth will help protect
the pool liner from damage due to weed growth, sharp objects, and debris.
Guide5.
If at all possible, choose an open location on your property that is exposed to direct sunlight. This will help to
warm your pool.
WARNING:
Pools installed on inadequately level surfaces are subject to leaking,
forming irregularities, or collapse, which can result in property damage or serious in-
jury for those in or around the pool area!
WARNING:
Do not use sand during setup process. If it appears that there is a need
for use of a “leveling agent”, then your set-up site is likely unsuitable. FAILURE TO
OBEY THIS WARNING MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.
CAUTION:
Please choose your set-up area carefully, as lawn and other desirable
vegetation underneath the ground cloth(If applicable) will die. Furthermore, try to avoid
setting the ground cloth(If applicable)in areas prone to aggressive plant and weed spe-
cies, as they may grow through the ground cloth(If applicable).
CAUTION:
The pool must be accessible to a 110 or 230-volt AC outlet protected by
a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). The pool should be set no closer than 2 m. to
the power source, but no further than the length of the filter pump cord. Under no cir
-
cumstances should an extension cord be used to extend the range of the connection.
