Wood is a living material that responds to changes in temperature and humidity; cracks and splits may appear; this is natural
and in no way impacts the service life of our products.
The wooden components of this pool are subjected to a Class IV autoclave treatment that complies with standards in effect, they
present no danger to people or animals that may come into direct contact with the wood.
Do not apply any product to the wood (for example: lazure, micro-porous products, etc.)
Over time, the wood will inevitably get dirty. Clean it once a year with a high pressure jet to remove dirt trapped in the pores of
the wood. Take care to regulate the water pressure to avoid damaging the finish or raising wood fibres.
This pool is delivered as a kit and is not designed to be dismantled.
This pool is designed to be used by persons 3 years of age and older. It is understood that young children and non-swimmers using
the pool will wear flotation devices. For your safety and that of your children, we recommend that you read and apply the
safety recommendations on page 32
.
Use of a pool kit implies adherence to safety recommendations outlined in the maintenance and operating instructions.
Octo 414, +450 and hexa 410, maximum 4 people allowed in the pool at any one time.
Octo 505 models, maximum 5 people allowed in the pool at any one time.

Ladders should only be used to enter and exit the pool. Any other use is prohibited and could be dangerous.
The wooden access ladder should be taken away and stored systematically after the last person leaves the pool. This is to prevent
the risk of drowning. We have designed a fast efficient locking system, use it!! Store the ladder in a dry place during the winter. There
should be no means of access to the pool while it is not in use. The ladder wood should be treated in the same way as the other
wooden elements.
We recommend that you secure access to the finished pool with one of the measures set out in the French pool safety
standard NF P 90-306, 307, 308 & 309 that is: Safety barrier - Alarm - Safety cover - Shelter.
Inspect the accessible nuts and bolts regularly and carry out any maintenance required (re-tighten, treat traces of rust, etc.).
Take care with the liner of your pool, do not treat it roughly. Make sure that correct tension is maintained on the liner, failure to do so
could result in tears and leaks. See the guarantee conditions at the end of these instructions.
During the life of your pool it may be necessary to empty it totally. In this event, take every precaution necessary to avoid accidents
and danger (falls, etc. ). Avoid leaving the pool empty for more than 48 hours, this could result in deformation of the
structure.
REMINDER:
No diving - No walking on the coping - Never leave an empty pool uncovered
WATER TREATMENT & MAINTENANCE OF THE FILTRATION SYSTEM
To ensure the comfort of pool users, you will need to treat the pool water. Follow the recommendations concerning
operation of the filtration group: commissioning, frequency of use for regeneration of the water, maintenance,
inspections (pipes, nuts and bolts), etc. Monitor the build up of dirt in the sand filter (see the section on filter back
washing).
During the pool season, the filter should be run every day for long enough to renew the entire pool water volume at
least three times every 24 hours.
To ensure optimal efficiency of the filtration system, make sure that the water level remains correct and constant. The
water level should be 2/3 of the way up the skimmer mouth.
To fill your pool, use tap water, its pH is close to the ideal pH. If you use water from a well or some other private source
you must have it analysed beforehand. You will need to test the pH of your pool at regular intervals and adjust it if
necessary to keep it between 7.2 and 7.6. Treatment chemicals for this purpose are widely available.
To preserve the quality of the pool water, it will need to be tested and treated regularly. Frequency will depend on a
number of conditions; pool situation, bather load, weather conditions, etc.
As pool water cannot be directed into the sewage system, it must be directed as rain run-off. Familiarise yourself with
the regulations concerning disposal of pool waste water in effect in the area in which the pool is located
Failure to abide by maintenance instructions may entail serious risks to health and safety, notably of children.
