CAUTION - RISK OF EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
3. Check the water chemistry. The water should be
properly balanced (pH level), and the pool free from
algae. Algae can adversely affect the operation and
performance of the cleaner.
4. Clean or backwash the filtration system without the
cleaner in the pool.
The cleaner is not intended to clean the pool after extended
periods of disuse until the following steps have been taken:
1. Clear the pool of any large objects that might interfere
with the cleaner’s operation.
2. Check to see that the water is at the recommended level.
NEW POOL CONSTRUCTION
POOL PREPARATION
POOLS WITH EXCESSIVE DEBRIS
• The cleaner should not be used to remove plaster dust or
construction debris from new or renovated pools.
• Brush the newly constructed pool surface and vacuum new
surface debris before installing the cleaner.
• The cleaner should not be used to remove excessive debris
before a seasonal pool opening or following a high wind
event or sandstorm.
• Pools with excessive amounts of debris should be
vacuumed manually before using the cleaner.
• Always empty the cleaner filter cartridges or debris canister
when filled with debris.
Pool Preparation
• NEVER SWIM WITH THE CLEANER IN THE POOL.
• Before using the cleaner, remove any items such as
thermometers, toys and other accessories from the pool.
Such items may cause damage to the cleaner or the pool.
Large debris should also be removed manually from
the pool before installing the cleaner.
• Chemical balance of water may affect cleaner performance,
accelerate wear of certain parts, and may lead to more
frequent maintenance.
• DO NOT LEAVE THE CLEANER IN THE POOL WHEN
CHEMICAL SHOCKING THE POOL.
• pH should be adjusted and kept between 7.2 – 7.8.
• Total chlorine should be maintained between 1.0 – 3.0 PPM.
The cleaner should never be used when chlorine level
(or other oxidizer) exceeds the normal values.
• Total alkalinity level should always be maintained
between 80 – 150 PPM.
• To keep the pool safe for swimming and protect your
equipment, have the water tested frequently and balance
chemicals accordingly.
