POOL CARE AND CHEMICALS
CLEANING OR REPLACING FILTER CARTRIDGES
It is recommended that the filter cartridge be replaced at least every 2
weeks.
1
. Make sure the filter pump is turned off, then unplug the transformer power cord from the
electrical socket.
2
. Grasp a plunger valve handle. Turn the handle counter-clockwise, push down until it
stops and then turn it clockwise until the plastic protruding notch anchors in the "0/1"
position. Repeat for the second plunger valve. This prevents the water from flowing out
of the pool.
3
. Gently turn the top air release valve once or twice in a counter-clockwise direction. The
housing cover can now be easily removed.
4
. In a counter-clockwise direction remove the filter housing collar
(1).
Place it in a safe
location.
5
. Remove the housing cover
(4).
6
. Now remove the used filter cartridge.
• All pools require care to keep the water clear and hygienically clean. With proper chemical
control, your filter will help attain this objective. Consult your pool supply dealer for
instructions regarding the proper use of chlorine, algaecide and other chemical agents
required for sparkling clear water.
• Keep pool chemicals away from children.
• Do not replenish chemicals in pool while pool is occupied. Skin or eye irritations could
occur.
• Daily pH checking and chemical treatment of the water is very important and can not be
overemphasized. Chlorine, algaecide and maintenance of proper pH levels are required
when filling the pool as well as during the season. Consult your local swimming pool
supply store for instructions.
• The season's first filling of the pool may have brackish water requiring extra water
additives and extra filter changes. Do not allow swimming in pool until the pH level is
balanced. Consult your local swimming pool supply store for instructions.
• Keep spare filter cartridges on hand. Replace cartridges every two weeks.
• Chlorinated water may damage lawns, gardens or shrubbery as children play in the pool
and splash water outside the pool. Lawn areas underneath the pool liner will be destroyed.
Note that some types of grass may grow through the liner.
• Filter run time depends on pool size, weather and usage level. Experiment with various run
times so as to produce clean clear water.
CAUTION
Concentrated chlorine solutions may damage the pool liner. Always
follow the chemical manufacturer’s directions, and the health
warnings.
