Thank you for purchasing a ClearBlue Ionizer. This device will assist in controlling bacteria and algae in 
pools and spas by augmenting the bactericidal and algicidal activity of primary disinfectants such as 
chlorine or bromine. Once the copper concentration has reached the required level of 0.2 

 0.4ppm, 

maintain 0.6 

 3ppm of free available chlorine in pools and 0.6 

 5ppm of free available chlorine in spas. 

Regulated pools must follow provincial, state, or municipal guidelines. 

 

READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS 

 

 

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless 
they are closely supervised at all times. 

 

This unit is only water resistant when the mineral cell cable is plugged into the cell receptacle. 
Failure to do this may result in internal water damage. 

 

Use this equipment only for its intended use as described in this manual.  

 

This system should be serviced only by the manufacturer. Contact the manufacturer for 
examination, repair, or adjustment.  

 

Do not immerse cord or plug in water. 

 

Keep cord away from heated surfaces. 

 

Heavy bather loads may trigger the need for additional chlorine/bromine. 

 

Check the expiry date of the test kit as test results may be inaccurate if used after that date. 

 

Use a registered or scheduled pool or spa sanitizer to maintain an appropriate 
chlorine/bromine residual in the water. 

 

The average life expectancy of the mineral cell is six months 

(2160 “on” hours) 

 

 

When replacing the mineral cell, use replacement cells having a label that clearly states that it 
is a replacement mineral cell for a mineral ion releasing device manufactured by ClearBlue 
Ionizer Inc. 

Electrical Requirements 

The retailer and manufacturer cannot accept any liability for damage to the equipment or personal 
injury resulting from failure to observe the correct electrical connection procedures. 

 

WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock. Connect only to a grounding type receptacle protected by a 
ground-fault circuit-interrupter 
WARNING: A ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) should be provided by the installer and should 
be tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI should interrupt 
power. Push the reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, 
the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the unit without the test button being pushed, 

a ground current is flowing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this unit. 
Disconnect the unit and have the problem corrected by a qualified s

ervice representative before 

using. 
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, replace systems with a damaged cord immediately.
