WARNING
USE OF THE VORTEX
TM
1 IN A POOL WITH LINER
Some types of liner surfaces are especially sensitive to wear. The liner decoration can be rapidly
worn away due to the wear caused by pool accessories such as pool brushes, toys, buoys,
fountains, chlorinators and automatic pool cleaners. The decoration on some vinyl surfaces
can be scratched or worn by the use of a pool brush. The colours of certain patterns can also
be erased during the installation procedure or when in contact with objects in the pool. Zodiac
Pool Care Europe cannot be held liable for such damage and the limited warranty does not
cover erased decoration, wear or marking of the liner surface.
