READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS

Please adhere strictly to the following WARNINGS:

WARNING

Ensure the electrical outlet is protected by a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) or an Earth Leakage Interrupter (ELI)

WARNING

Keep the power supply out of standing water.

WARNING

Position the power supply at least 3.5m/12ft away from the edge of the pool.

WARNING

Do not enter the pool while the Pool Cleaner is in the water.

To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the power unit without the test button being pushed, a ground current may be flowing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock. Do not use the power unit. Disconnect the power unit and contact the manufacturer for assistance.
