Warning – Risk of Electrical Shock
The Hayward Viio Turbo Automatic Pool Cleaner is designed to
connect to a threaded 1-1/2 inch female pipe fitting on a
dedicated return line that is powered by a 3/4 H.P. Booster
Pump. You should have a licensed electrician install the
cleaner’s booster pump.
The Booster Pump must be
installed in accordance with the National Electrical
Code and all local code requirements. Failure to do so
can result in serious injury or death.
Warning – Risk of Injury
Failure to follow the safety warnings below may result
in severe injury, death or property damage.
• Always disconnect and remove the cleaner and pressure
hose before entering the pool.
• Always handle with care. Do not let children or pets play
with the cleaner; it is not a toy.
• Always turn the Booster Pump
OFF
before handling cleaner
• Do not operate outside the pool. The Viio Turbo Cleaner
and hoses contain high-pressure water jets that may
cause injury.
• Disconnect pressure hose from the universal wall fitting
before removing the cleaner from the pool.
•
Never
point any of the cleaner’s high-pressure jets,
pressure hose or sweep hose at any person or pets.
Important Information
Caution – Risk of Equipment Damage
• Always turn the Filtration Pump on
before
turning the
booster pump on. Running the booster pump dry will
damage the booster pump and is not covered by the
Hayward warranty.
• Always disconnect and remove the Viio cleaner and
hoses from the pool before cleaning or backwashing
the pool filter.
• After cleaning or backwashing the pool filter, allow the
filtration system to run for a minimum of five minutes or
until all debris has been flushed from plumbing lines before
reconnecting the Viio cleaner.
• New plumbing lines must be flushed out before connecting
the Viio cleaner.
• The Viio cleaner should not be used to remove plaster dust or
construction debris from new or renovated pools.
• The Viio cleaner should not be used to remove excessive
sand (dense debris) following wind or sandstorm.
• Always disconnect and remove the Viio cleaner and hoses
before chemically shocking the pool.
• Only operate the Viio cleaner for the period of time necessary
to clean the pool. Excessive use is unnecessary and will
cause cleaner parts to prematurely wear.
• Regularly inspect the cleaner and hoses; do not use if
damaged or if any rough edges are visible on the cleaner;
this can cause damage to the pool.
• Only pick-up the Viio cleaner by its wing (Part A, page 4),
never by the hose or bag.
Disclaimer
• Pool plaster is affected by age, water chemistry, etc.
• Pool plaster can deteriorate over a period of time.
• The integrity of “good” pool plaster is such that a pool
vacuum cleaner – automatic or manual – cannot remove
the plaster.
• The integrity of “good” pool plaster is such that the plaster
will cause wear on the cleaner, the cleaner will not wear out
“good” pool plaster.
• Vinyl pool liners are affected by age, sunlight, and water
chemistry.
• Vinyl pool liners can become brittle and weak.
• Vinyl pool liners can be affected by the installation and the
pool's surroundings.
• Patterns on vinyl pool liners vary in quality.
• When installing the Viio cleaner, you assume responsibility for
the condition of the pool and the pool's surroundings and
chemistry.
