1.4 Recommendations for use

• 

The pool must be equipped with a self-priming filtration unit with 

a full-system flow rate of 12 m³/h and filtration pump 

power of 3/4 hp or 550 W.

•  During the season, you can leave the device in the water.

• 

The cleaner needs to operate in swimming pool water under the following conditions: chlorine < 3 mg/l; pH between 

6.8 and 7.6; temperature between 15°C and 35°C. Outside these values, the cleaner's efficiency may be reduced.

•  When the pool is dirty, especially when commissioning, remove the largest debris using a net in order to optimise clea-

ner performance.

• 

Do not wait until the pool is very dirty and full of algae before using the cleaner, or the filtration system will become 

clogged very quickly. 

•  Remove any thermometers, toys and other objects that might block or damage the cleaner.

•  You can operate the filtration pump during a cleaning cycle to filter out the particles placed in suspension by the cleaner. 

However, if the behaviour of the cleaner is affected by the jet from the discharge nozzle when the filtration pump is 

operational, we advise you to start your cleaner when the filtration pump is not operating.

During the season, we recommend leaving the cleaner in the pool EXCEPT when using the pool.

To remove the cleaner, disconnect the hose, but do not roll it up.

Remove the cleaner from the pool for at least 4 hours when adding chemical products.

2. Assembly and installation

2.1. Determining the suitable hose length for your pool

•  The correct hose length is the maximum distance your cleaner 

can travel in your pool.

• 

It  corresponds  to  the  distance  between  the  hose  connection 

point  –  the  skimmer  or  suction  line  –  and  the  point  furthest 

away from it, 

plus

 a 1-metre section.

• 

If this measurement is greater than 11 m, you can buy additio

-

nal sections from your reseller.
