USING THE POOL CLEANER

The Pool Cleaner is very easy to use. Just follow the simple steps to get started, and your Pool Cleaner is ready to go.

Setup

Before using the Pool Cleaner for the first time perform the following steps:

Unwind the cable and stretch it out completely so that it has no kinks.

Position the power supply so that it is approximately in the middle of the long side of the pool at a distance of 3m/10ft.

Some models arrive with plastic coverings on the brushes. Remove them before use.

Attach the floating cable to the power supply by inserting it with the notch on the connector (1) lined up with the groove in the socket on the power supply and turning clockwise (2).

Plug in the power supply and leave it in the OFF position

Putting the Pool Cleaner into the pool

If your Pool Cleaner is equipped with brushes that contain sponges, dip the brushes in the water and squeeze them so that they will absorb water the first time you use the Pool Cleaner, or if the brushes have dried out between uses.

Holding the Pool Cleaner upside down in the water, gently rock it back and forth with your fingers holding the plastic doors on the bottom lid open to release trapped air. Continue until no more bubbles are released.

Release the Pool Cleaner and let it sink to the floor of the pool.

Make sure that the floating cable is free of any obstructions.

To avoid kinks in the floating cable, place approximately enough cable in the water for the Pool Cleaner to reach the farthest corner of the pool.

Turn the power supply ON.
The Pool Cleaner will now operate until it has reached the end of the cleaning cycle

Removing the Pool Cleaner from the pool

**** Turn OFF and unplug the power supply

Using the floating cable, bring the Pool Cleaner to the pool’s edge. Using the handle, remove the Pool Cleaner from the pool.

**** DO NOT PULL THE POOL CLEANER FROM THE POOL USING THE CABLE.

CLEANING THE FILTER BAG OR CARTRIDGES

Depending on the model, your Pool Cleaner may be equipped with a filter bag or cartridges. It is recommended to clean the filter bag or cartridges after each cleaning cycle.

Removing and cleaning the filter bag

**** Unplug the power supply.

Turn the Pool Cleaner upside-down. Open the bottom lid.

Remove the filter bag

Clean the filter bag with a hose.

We recommend that you periodically wash the filter bag in a washing machine using the gentle cycle program.

Periodically clean the brushes with a hose.

Replacing the filter bag

Put the filter bag over the frame so that the strap is in the middle of the shortest side. Make sure that filter bag is positioned properly on the frame.

Cleaning the filter cartridges

Note: Don’t let the filter cartridges dry out before cleaning

Unplug the power supply.
With the Pool Cleaner upside down open the bottom lid and pull it out.

Open the clips and remove the filter.
