When operating correctly, the Polaris vacuums and sweeps all surfaces, moving randomly
throughout the pool. The surface module floats on the water’s surface recirculating clean,
filtered water. The sweep hose and filter bag move across the pool floor collecting dirt 
and debris.

Approximately every 15-25 seconds the Polaris will change directions.

Pressure Relief Valve

The pressure relief valve in the Quick
Disconnect automatically releases
water if the Polaris is receiving too
much water pressure. It can also be
used to regulate the movement of 
the cleaner.

If the Polaris changes directions too
quickly, adjust the pressure relief valve
to slow the cleaner.

Cleaning the Filter Bag

Depress the buttons on the jet sweep
assembly to release the bag. Turn 
the filter bag inside-out to remove
the debris.

Open frame completely and 
reattach bag.

Cleaning the Filter Screen

The filter screen inside the Quick Disconnect captures debris missed by the pool filtration
system. To clean, pull it out, rinse it and press it back into place.

Backwashing the Pool Filter

Always disconnect the Polaris from the pool wall before cleaning or backwashing the pool
filter. After cleaning or backwashing, let the filtration system run for at least five minutes to
flush out the return lines before re-connecting the Polaris.

Storage and Winterizing

Never store the Polaris in direct sunlight. When storing for the winter, drain out all the water
(freeze damage is not covered under the warranty). Remove the sweep jet assembly from
the sweep hose and store it flat. Hang or lay the hoses straight. Remove all fittings from the
return lines including the UWF. In some cases, it may be necessary to use the UWF Removal
Tool (part #10-102-00) available from an authorized Polaris dealer.
