IMPORTANT
The floating cable may become tangled if correct
procedure is not followed.
Do not leave the cleaner unattended for prolonged
periods, always spread the floating cable over the pool,
and follow the procedure below to avoid excessive
tangling.
After every cleaning cycle:
1. Unplug power to the cleaner at the control unit.
2. Remove the cleaner from the pool and untangle
all kinks and coils in the floating cable starting
at the cleaner head (see Figure 22). Lay cable
in sunlight to loosen tangling memory in the
cable.
3. Plug power cord back into control unit and
store cleaner on the caddy out of direct sunlight
for next use.

5.2 Check for Brush Wear
The cleaner is fitted with PVC brushes in front and
rear. There are raised grooves that are ''wear'' indicators
on the brushes located next to the tab connectors (see
Figure 23). As brushes wear out, the raised groove will
flatten and smoothen into the track.
