ELECTRICAL SAFETY
•
The power supply for your
swimming pool must be protected
by means of a residual current
circuit breaker (30 mA).
•
Never take electrical equipment into your
swimming pool and never touch them from inside
the water.
•
Free-standing filter systems/pumps exceeding 12
volts must be installed with a minimum distance
of 3 m from the pool, and a distance of 3.5 from
the pool for the current source.
•
Please observe the DIN VDE 0100 part 702 for
all electrical installations of your pool.
SAFETY OF NON-SWIMMERS
•
A permanent, active and watchful supervision
of weak swimmers and non-swimmers by a
competent, skilled adult supervisor is necessary
at all times (it should be remembered that the
greatest risk of drowning is among children under
5 years of age).
•
A competent, skilled adult is appointed to monitor
the pool when it is used.
•
Weak swimmers or non-swimmers must wear
personal protective equipment when using the
swimming pool.
•
If the pool is not used or monitored, all toys must
be removed from the pool and its surroundings to
prevent that children are attracted by these.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS
The use of a swimming pool kit presumes that the
construction kit complies with the safety regulations
described in the operation and maintenance
manual. To prevent a drowning of children, it is
recommended to secure access to the swimming
pool. The access to the pool is to be secured in
such a way that children under 5 years cannot get
into the pool water unnoticed. You can protect the
pool with a childproof fencing or a childproof cover/
roofing of the complete pool, with an additional
alarm system, if desired. Safety devices can
make a pool safer, but never replace a permanent
supervision of children by an adult who can help in
an emergency.
While the pool is used, no equipment
used to access the swimming pool (e.g.
ladders) must be removed. When the
pool is no longer used, ladders must either be
completely removed from the pool or secured in
such a way that unauthorized access is not possible
(for example, we recommend using a safety ladder
with detachable, or foldable and lockable steps).
