You may need to lower the setting when the pool water temperature decreases
significantly or there are long periods of inactivity.
Prevent over-chlorination during cold weather: Check chlorine levels periodically.
Most pools require less chlorine during cold weather and the DAILY CHLORINE
OUTPUT should be lowered accordingly.

The replaceable Cell uses the same electronic self cleaning technology as the
popular Hayward Turbo Cell. In most cases this self cleaning action will keep the
Cell working at optimum efficiency. In areas where water is hard (high mineral
content) and in pools where the water chemistry has been allowed to get "out of
balance," the Cell may require periodic cleaning.

Unplug the Salt & Swim from the GFCI outlet and remove power from the pump
before attempting to remove the Cell. Unplug the Cell cord from the Cell. Remove
the Cell from the Vessel by unscrewing the Retaining Nut and gently pulling the Cell
out of Vessel. Once removed, look inside the Cell and inspect for scale formation
(light colored crusty or flaky deposits) on the plates and for any debris which has
passed through the filter and caught on the plates. If no deposits are visible,
reinstall. If deposits are seen, use a high pressure garden hose and try to flush the
scale off. If this is not successful, use a plastic or wood tool (do not use metal as
this will scratch the coating off the plates) and scrape deposits off of plates. Note
that a buildup on the Cell indicates that there is an unusually high calcium level in
the pool (old pool water is usually the cause). If this is not corrected, you may have
to periodically clean the Cell. The simplest way to avoid this is to bring the pool
chemistry to the recommended levels as specified.

Mild Acid Washing: Use only in severe cases where flushing and scraping will not
remove the majority of deposits. To acid wash, mix a 4:1 solution of water to
muriatic acid (one gallon of water to one quart of muriatic acid) in a clean plastic
container, . ALWAYS ADD ACID TO WATER - NEVER ADD WATER TO ACID. Be
sure to wear rubber gloves and appropriate eye protection. Place the Cell in the
container. The solution should reach the top of the Cell so that the cylindrical
electronics compartment is not submerged. Soak the Cell for a few minutes and
then rinse with a high pressure garden hose. If any deposits are still visible, repeat
soaking and rinsing. Replace Cell and inspect again periodically.

The Salt & Swim replaceable Cell will be damaged by freezing water just as your
pool plumbing would. In areas of the country which experience severe or extended
periods of freezing temperatures, be sure to drain all water from the pump, filter,
and supply and return lines before any freezing conditions occur. The Control Box
and plumbed in Cell Vessel are capable of withstanding any winter weather and
should not be removed.

DO NOT turn the Salt & Swim on until the pool water chemistry has been brought
to the proper levels. This information can be found on page 8.
