The pump is not intended for use by young children or infi rm persons
without supervision. Young children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the pump.

before removing trap lid. Do not block pump suction. To do so with

Small children using pool must ALWAYS have close adult supervision.
Pump suction is hazardous and can trap and drown or disembowel
bathers. Do not use or operate pump, pool/spas if a suction outlet
cover is missing, broken, or loose. Follow the guidelines below for a
pump installation which minimises risk to users of pool and spas.
Fire and burn hazard. Modern motors run at high temperatures. To
reduce the risk of fi re, do not allow leaves, debris, or foreign matter
