Important Safety Instructions

 

 

CAUTION

USE OF THE BARACUDA ROBOTIC CLEANER IN A VINYL LINER POOL

Certain vinyl liner patterns are particularly susceptible to rapid surface wear of pattern removal caused by objects coming into contact 

with the vinyl surface, including pool brushes, pool toys, floats, fountains, chlorine dispensers, and automatic pool cleaners. Some 

vinyl liner patterns can be seriously scratched or abraded simply by rubbing the surface with a pool brush. Ink from the pattern can 

also rub off during the installation process or when it comes into contact with objects in the pool. Zodiac Group Australia Pty Ltd is not 

responsible for, and the Limited Warranty does not cover, pattern removal, abrasion or markings on vinyl liners. 

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

 

 

WARNING

Failure to comply with the following warnings can result in permanent injury, electrocution or death.
PREVENT ELECTRICAL SHOCK

To reduce risk of electrical shock:

•  The cleaner is to be installed in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Australian wiring rules AS/NZS 3000. Also refer to 

the installation instructions relating to the swimming pool equipment for which the cleaner will be an integral part. The cleaner is to be 

supplied through a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a rated residual operating current of 30mA.

•  Do not enter pool while the robotic cleaner is in water.

•  Do not bury cord. Locate cord so as to prevent it from being damaged by lawn mowers, hedge trimmers and other equipment.

•  To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not use the robotic cleaner or control box if the cord is worn or damaged. Contact Baracuda 

Customer care Service 1300 784 423 immediately for proper servicing and replacement of the damaged cord.

•  Double insulation—For continued protection against possible electric shock, use only identical replacement parts when servicing. Do 

not attempt repair of the robotic cleaner, control box, power cord, or floating cable.

•  Use only the power supply provided with the product.

•  NEVER OPEN Control box.

•  DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD TO CONNECT THE UNIT TO ELECTRIC SUPPLY; PROVIDE A PROPERLY LOCATED RCD 

PROTECTED POWER OUTLET. THE CONTROL BOX SHOULD BE PLACED NEAR THE RCD PROTECTED GFCI POWER OUTLET 

POINT.

PREVENT CHILD INJURY AND DROWNING

•  To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children or persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of 

experience and knowledge to operate this product.

•  Do not let anyone, especially small children, sit, step, lean, or climb on any equipment installed as part of your pool’s operational 

system.

 

 

 

CAUTION

Failure to comply with the following warnings could cause damage to pool equipment or personal injury.

•  The robotic cleaner must be installed and operated as specified.

•  This product is intended for use with permanently-installed pools. Do not use with storable pools. A permanently-installed pool is 

constructed in or on the ground or in a building such that it cannot be readily disassembled for storage. A storable pool is constructed so 

that it is capable of being readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original integrity.

•  Clean the filter canister after each use.

•  Do not use the product in your pool if the water temperature is above 35˚ C (95˚ F) or below 13˚ C (55˚ F).
