This one year limited warranty is extended to the original consumer purchaser of this Polaris 480 PRO Automatic Pool Cleaner manufactured
by Zodiac Pool Care, Inc., from date of manufacture of the unit as established by the serial number, or one year from date of purchase with proof
of purchase, whichever is later. Zodiac warrants this product, including all parts and components thereof, to be free of defects in material and
workmanship. Normal replacement items such as bags, tires, sweep hoses or sweep hose scrubbers which have been worn out by use or improper
installation are not covered by this warranty. The Polaris 480 PRO frame is warranted for a period of ten years.
This limited warranty does not apply if the failure is caused or contributed to by any of the following: improper handling, improper usage,
improper storage, winter freezing, abuse, improper installation, removal of the in-line filter screen, unsuitable application of the unit, improper
maintenance, lack of reasonable and necessary maintenance, damage in transit or during installation, or damage from repairs/alterations made or
attempted by anyone other than Zodiac or one of its Authorized Service Centers. In no event shall Zodiac be liable for incidental or consequential
damages of any nature or for damages to persons or property, including damage to vinyl liners, plaster, tile, aggregate-based and other pool
surfaces, or damages resulting from the use of this product with a substandard pool circulation system or chemical imbalance.
Authorization to return a unit or part to the plant of manufacture must be obtained from the Zodiac Customer Service Department. Check with
your dealer for the local procedure before exercising this warranty. If further directions or instructions should be required, contact the Customer
Service Department at 1-800-822-7933 (USA and Canada only) or (760) 599-9600. Be sure to insure the shipment against loss or damage in transit.
This limited warranty is valid only in the United States of America, Canada and Australia, and it does not apply to Polaris 480 PRO Automatic
Swimming Pool Cleaners sold or installed in any other country. Polaris 480 PRO Automatic Pool Cleaners sold in the United Kingdom are warranted
for a period of two years from date of invoicing to the first user.
WARNING: USE OF POLARIS 480 PRO / 480 PRO TANKTRAX IN A VINYL LINER POOL
Certain vinyl liner patterns are particularly susceptible to rapid surface wear or pattern removal caused by objects coming into contact with the vinyl
surface, including pool brushes, pool toys, floats, fountains, chlorine dispensers, and automatic pool cleaners. Some vinyl liner patterns can be
seriously scratched or abraded simply by rubbing the surface with a pool brush. Ink from the pattern can also rub off during the installation process or
when it comes into contact with objects in the pool. Zodiac Pool Systems, Inc., is not responsible for, and the Limited Warranty does not cover, pattern
removal, abrasion or markings on vinyl liners.
