This one year limited warranty is extended to the original consumer purchaser of this Polaris Vac-Sweep 380 Automatic
Pool Cleaner manufactured by Polaris Pool Systems, 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. Polaris 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 380 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 UWF 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 Polaris or one of its Authorized
Service Centers. In no event shall Polaris 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 sue 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 Polaris 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-VAC-SWEEP (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
Vac-Sweep 380 Automatic Swimming Pool Cleaners sold or installed in any other country. Polaris Vac-Sweep 380 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 380 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.
Polaris is not responsible for, and the Limited Warranty does not cover, pattern removal, abrasion or markings on vinyl liners.
