If too much sand or heavy debris is collected in the Debris Bag,
the bag will “droop” over the hose while on the bottom and the
Cleaner may not be able to ascend to the surface properly. If you
observe the bag drooping over the hose turn the booster pump off
and empty the Debris Bag.

When the Phantom cleaner is operating properly it will randomly
travel around the bottom, sides and surface of the pool in “AUTO”
mode. The cleaner will clean the bottom and walls 2/3 of its
cycle and skim the surface 1/3 of the cycle. In “TOP” or “BOT”
(Bottom) mode, the cleaner will stay in the Skimming or Bottom
& Wall mode (respectively) until the switch is changed to a
different mode.

The cleaner will periodically stop and rotate clockwise in order
to provide better pool coverage and to escape from corners and
other obstacles. If the cleaner is momentarily stopped in a corner
or at an obstacle, it will Spin-Out to free itself and continue
moving randomly about the pool. The Spin-Out Cam determines
the frequency of the Spin-Outs. The cleaner comes equipped with
3 Spin-Out Cams; every 75, 50 (factory installed) or 30 seconds
(75 second and 30 second Cams are in the Accessory bag). To
change Spin-Out Frequency see “Changing Spin-Out Cam”.

The Sweep Hose should move in a slow, undulating (snake-like)
motion. It moves debris out of tight corners so the cleaner can
vacuum the debris at a more accessible spot in the pool.
The Sweep Hose also stirs fine debris into suspension for
removal by the pool’s filtration system. T

(Wear Line) replace the Wear Rollers (P/N AX5006A) a bag of
extra Wear Rollers is included. If a hole forms in the Sweep Hose,
it must be replaced with a genuine Hayward Phantom Sweep
Hose (P/N AX5000RSHA).

When the cleaner is on the bottom or walls debris is vacuumed
from below the cleaner and passed through the vacuum tube
into the Debris Bag. When the cleaner is skimming the surface
water jets push the debris into the Debris Bag where it is held
until the user empties the Bag. The cleaner may not pick-up all
debris on the first pass, but your pool should be clean in 3-hours
or less (depending on pool size, shape and the amount of debris
in the pool).

The Large Capacity Debris Bag, as with other pressure-side
cleaners, does not hold very fine sand or other powder-like
debris. Powder will be blown through the bag and into
suspension so it can be filtered by the pool’s filtration system.

The Phantom is designed to operate with 1/2-cup of sand and
the remainder of its bag filled with leaves, acorns, grasses, etc.

This hose has been designed to minimize the forming of loops
and knotting. Most of the pressure hose should remain below the
surface of the water the majority of the time. If the hose forms a
loop the cleaner will eventually work it out. In the rare event the
hose becomes knotted or tangled, it will limit the range of
the cleaner. To get optimal coverage, remove knots or bad
tangles if found.
