SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

As the owner, you have the most important role in reminding users of pool safety. You must set a safety example for
your family and guests. Use common sense around your pool and demand that others use common sense.

FAILURE TO HEED THESE WARNINGS CAN RESULT IN PERMANENT INJURY,
PARALYSIS FROM A BROKEN NECK, ELECTROCUTION OR DROWNING.

WATCH CHILDREN PREVENT DROWNINGS

 • Always watch and supervise children playing in or around pool to prevent drowning or injury. Never allow children or adults

to climb on the outside structure of the above ground pool. Do not place filters, pumps, tables, chairs or other objects
near the pool. Children may use these to enter the pool and drown. Position your filtration system a safe distance from
the pool to prevent young children from using the filter as a means of access to the pool.

NO DIVING

• Never dive, flip or jump into this above ground swimming pool. It is too shallow for safe diving. Ladders, decks, handrails

and top ledges (or anything else) are not to be used for diving. You can break your neck!

• Most serious permanent injuries, paralysis or deaths occur when dives are made from pool decks. Please read your four

page "Mandatory Reading" Booklet supplied with this pool before you purchase or fabricate a deck for your pool.

NO ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES

• Never use your swimming pool if you have been drinking alcoholic beverages or taking medications or drugs. Shock,

unconsciousness, permanent injury or drowning could result.

FENCE SAFETY

• As an additional deterrent against child drownings, you should install around the pool an additional four (4) foot tall (above-

ground level) fence, wall or enclosure that is made of durable material. All gates and entries must be self-closing and self-
latching and equipped with hardware for permanent locking. All latches must be installed four (4) feet above the ground
surface and made inaccessible to toddlers from outside. If a building is part of the barrier, all doors, windows and patio
gates that could provide access to the pool must be self-closing and self-latching with permanent locks so that your pool
can not be entered by toddlers. Check all local and state building codes to insure your installation complies with all
requirements. Fences and barriers are not a substitute for adult supervision.

INSTALL POOL ABOVE GROUND

• Never install your above-ground swimming pool below the ground surface. This pool must be installed on the ground

surface only. There should be a flat, three (3) foot area (minimum) around the base of your pool wall.

POOL COVER SAFETY

• If you use a winter cover and did not purchase it from us, the cover must meet CPSC Standard ES13. The cover must

have a tamperproof locking retainer cable that positions the cover around the pool wall and keeps it securely in place.
Never allow anyone, especially small children on the cover. Asphyxiation or drowning could result.

• We do not make a barrier cover. If you purchase a cover to act as part of a barrier system, it must meet ASTM Standard

F 1346. When purchasing any pool cover, please consult a swimming pool professional.

LADDER SAFETY

• Ladders must be located over an upright (for metal frame pools), on a solid base and kept level.

ELECTRICAL HAZARD

• Never touch or attempt to service electrical equipment, including your filter, when your body and/or the ground is wet.

Electrocution or permanent injury due to high voltage (120V AC) could result.

• To avoid electrocution hazard, never use an electrical power source for any electrical equipment or your filter unless it

is protected by a Class A (5 Milliampere Trip) Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) in accordance with the National
Electrical Code Section 680.

ELECTRICAL BONDING

•The pool should be bonded in accordance with Section 680-26 of the National Electrical Code.   For further assistance contact

your dealer or a local licensed electrician.

KEEP WATER CLEAN

• Always keep your pool water clean so that the bottom is visible at all times. Individuals must be able to see that the water

is too shallow for diving, and must be able to see small children in the pool!

NO SWIMMING AFTER DARK

• Never use your swimming pool after dark or when you can not see the shallow depth of the water or the safety decals

or signs. If you ignore this, you have the sole responsibility for providing adequate lighting to the pool, safety signs,
walkways and decking. We recommend that you consult with a licensed electrical contractor or your power company to
provide adequate lighting. You must also comply with all national and local electric codes.

• Never cut holes in your pool wall to install lights or anything else unless the hole locations are factory installed. Failure

to obey this warning could cause structural damage to the pool wall, violently releasing large bodies of water. Wall
structural failures may cause serious injury, electrocution or property damage.
