by the product user when a person with normal
vision, including corrected vision, is no longer
able to read the safety signs or label message panel
text at a safe viewing distance from the hazard.
In cases where the product has an extensive
expected life or is exposed to extreme conditions,
the product user should contact either the product
manufacturer or some other source to determine
means for obtaining replacement signs or labels.
7.
Installation of new replacement safety signs or
labels should be in accordance with the sign or
label manufacturer's recommended procedure.
6.2 Pressure Gauge
Caution
Maintain your pressure gauge in good working order.
The pressure gauge is the primary indicator of how
the filter is operating.
1.
During operation of the filtration system, check
the pressure gauge/air release assembly for air or
water leaks at least once a week.
2.
Keep the pressure gauge in good working order.
If you suspect a problem with the gauge, Jandy
recommends you call a qualified service technician
to do any work on the filter/pump system.

Algae, suntan oil, calcium and body oils can form
coatings on filter element which may not be removed
by normal hosing. To remove such materials, soak
the element in de-greaser and then a de-scaler. Your
local pool shop will be able to recommend suitable
products.
