PREVENT YOUNG CHILDREN FROM DROWNING
• Drowning can occur in as little as 2 inches of water and it
occurs silently and very quickly. Always designate an adult
to be accountable for watching children who are in or near
the pool. This adult is the assigned Water Watcher and should
always be wearing the provided Water Watcher tag. Download
and print additional Water Watcher tags at <minnidip.com>.
• The Water Watcher must keep children in direct line of sight,
stay close, and constantly supervise when they are in or near
pool, even during filling and draining of the pool as it still
poses a risk of drowning. Do not remove any safety barriers
until the pool is completely empty and stowed away.
• If designated Water Watcher steps away from pool area,
a new adult must be designated to take over the duties.
• Always completely empty and store pool before discontinuing
constant supervision of children and before removing any
safety barriers.
• Always keep unsupervised children from accessing the pool.
Install fencing or other approved barriers around all sides of
pool. State or local laws and/or codes may require fencing or
other approved barriers around pool. Research local regulations
before setting up pool. Please refer to CPSC Pub. No. 362.
“Safety Barrier Guidelines for Residential Pools” for a list of
barrier recommendations and guidelines at <www.poolsafely.gov>.
• When searching for a missing child, always check the pool
first even if you believe the child or pet is in the house.
• When pool is not in use, remove all floats and any toys or
similar items from the pool that might attract a child to
want to enter the pool.
• Position furniture and any similar objects (such as tables,
chairs, floats, etc) away from pool to prevent children
from gaining access to the pool by climbing on them.
• After using pool, remove water to a level of 1⁄2 in. (1 cm) or less.
DIVING RISK
• Do not dive into this pool. Diving into shallow water
can result in a broken neck, paralysis, or death.
ELECTROCUTION RISK
• Keep ALL electrical lines, speakers, radios and similar
electrical appliances far away from the pool at all times.
• Do not place pool under or near electrical lines running
overhead or near electrical outlets.
FIRST AID AND EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS
• Keep a list of emergency numbers and working phone
near the pool at all times.
• In the event of an emergency, immediate use of CPR can
save a life. In order to respond to an emergency, become
certified in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and
keep CPR instructions near pool at all times.
SET-UP SAFETY
• Only set up the pool on ground that is absolutely flat, firm
and level, as well as clear of twigs, rocks or other objects that
may puncture the pool liner or cause injury.
• Never set up the pool on an inclined surface or slope or on
soft or loose soil conditions (such as sand or mud) because it
can cause pool collapse, resulting in property damage
and bodily injury.
• Never set up the pool on an elevated surface such as a deck,
platform or balcony, which may collapse under the weight of
the filled pool.
• Move the boxed product to the selected site before inflating.
Never inflate the product and drag it along the ground which
may result in damage. Prior to inflation, inspect for any rips,
tears or punctures. Do not use a possibly damaged product.
• Pool should only be set up in compliance with local safety
and building codes. Follow inflation instructions listed on
inside of the manual.
GENERAL SAFETY DURING USE
• Keep pool water fresh, clean and hygienic to prevent illness.
• Keep the pool floor visible at all times and water clear of
objections to floor visibility.
• Do not straddle, lean, or apply pressure on the inflatable
wall as flooding or injury could occur.
• Remove all hard, sharp and loose objects before entering
the pool to prevent puncturing the inflatable wall.
• Properly maintain pool to prevent damage beyond normal
wear and deterioration. Deterioration can lead to pool failure
which might cause large quantities of water to release from
the pool, causing property damage or bodily injury.
• Do not modify this product or use accessories not supplied
by manufacturer.
MAINTENANCE & DRAINAGE
• Pool must be drained and disassemble by adults only.
• Water can be easily contaminated. Change the water of
the pool frequently (especially in hot weather) or when
contamination is noticeable.
• Check local regulations for specific directions regarding
disposal of swimming pool water.
1. Dispose of pool water by first using the drain plug
on the floor of the pool.
2. Carefully open both flaps of the air valves on each ring
and the pool will quickly deflate. Once water’s almost emptied,
slowly lift one side of the pool to drain the remaining water.
3. Re-insert all valve caps after drainage to prep for storage.
4. Be sure pool and all parts are completely dry before folding.
Air dry in the sun or wipe with a dry cloth.
5. To fold pool back up for storage, first lay pool flat in circular
form. Fold it, with the air valves located at the point of the
fold, into a half circle. Then fold the half circle lengthwise,
over top itself, into a long strip. Next, starting at the end
opposite of the air valves, fold the strip over in sections
until reaching the end, pushing any remaining air out as it
folds onto itself. Push down on folded pool to release any
remaining air.
5. Original package can be used for storage in dry place
at room temperature. Extreme temperatures can result
in temperature shock and can cause the pool to
become defected.
REPAIR PATCH
A repair patch has been included with the product
to repair small leaks and holes.
1. Locate the leak and completely deflate the product.
2. Thoroughly clean and dry the damaged surface and
allow to completely dry for at least 10 minutes.
3. Place patch over leak or hole and apply pressure.
Smooth out any air bubbles.
4. Wait for 20 minutes before re-inflating the pool.
