4.3.4 Restretching the diaphragm
After several years of use, you may notice that the diaphragm has become slack
(see image ) and that the cleaner cleans the pool very slowly or not at all. This does not mean that the diaphragm
must be replaced. You can extend the service life of the diaphragm by restretching it.
To do this, following the steps below:
•
Unscrew the external output hose from the cartridge (see §
4.3.2 Removing the diaphragm
).
•
There is a line on the internal output hose marked with the number 2. The arrow on the base of the cartridge points
to this marking. Hold the base of the cartridge firmly and rotate the internal output hose slightly in the anti-clockwise
direction to unlock (see image ).
•
Pull outwards on the internal output hose until a line appears marked with the number 1 (see image ).
•
Turn the internal output hose in the clockwise direction to unlock. It is properly locked in position 1 when you hear a
"click" (see image ).
•
Check that the diaphragm is properly restretched (see image
) and reassemble the cartridge (see §
4.3.3
Reassembling the diaphragm
).

4.4 I Storing and winterizing
•
Before storing the cleaner for the winter, drain it of all the water (damage due to ice is not covered by the guarantee).
•
Clean the whole appliance and the hoses in clean water and leave to dry.
•
Store the entire appliance and hoses in a dry location protected from freezing temperatures.
•
Lay the disc flat and the hose sections separated, empty and straight.
•
Remove all the connectors and adaptors from the suction line or skimmer.
Tip: Maintain the condition of the hoses during storage
When the cleaner is in storage, even for a short period, avoid rolling up the hoses, as they may permanently
adopt a shape that would reduce the cleaner's performance.
