OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Precautions
It is of utmost importance to check that no-one is in the pool before closing the cover. Always keep
watch over the pool while the cover is in motion.
To allow for this, and for obvious safety reasons, the key switch must be installed in a location that allows the
pool to be kept in view while opening and closing the cover apron. The key switch must be held in position to
maintain the cover apron in motion. Never allow children to manipulate the cover, or have access to the key
switch.
In any event, swimming under the cover is strictly prohibited.
NOTA BENE:
Depending on the flow rate of the filtration pump, the return fittings could generate a strong current
on the surface of the pool. If this current could resist closing of the cover, filtration should be stopped during this
operation.
