INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY
> >
In this fun environment you need to watch your children! You alone are responsible for their safety !
Children should be closely supervised at all times. The risk is at its greatest when children are less than
5 years old.
Accidents don't just happen to others. Be ready to act !!
w
Never leave a child alone close to the pool.
w
Children must be closely supervised at all times.
w
Children who don't know how to swim, or children not supervised by adults, should wear a flotation
w
device (vest or arm bands). Without these precautions, access to the pool should be strictly denied.
The access ladder must be removed while the pool is not in use irrespective of the length of time for
w
which the pool will not be used.
Designate one person responsible for watching non-swimmers and children.
w
Be particularly attentive when there are several people in the pool.
w
Keep a pole and/or life ring close to the pool in case of necessity.
w
Teach young children how to swim as early as possible!
w
Before getting into the pool, wet the back of the neck, legs and arms to prevent irreversible thermal
w
shock! This warning also applies to older pool users who frequently disregard this safety tip.
Jumping or diving should be prohibited. The same applies to violent games.
w
Do not stand or walk on the coping! No diving.
w
Be careful not to leave toys in or around an unwatched pool, these could attract children...
w
Keep the water clean and sanitary during the pool season.
w
Water treatment chemicals should be kept out of reach of children; store them in a safe, inaccessible
w
place. Never leave cleaning accessories near the pool.
Some equipment can contribute to pool safety:
w
- safety barrier, with a gate that is always kept closed (for example, a hedge could not be considered a
safety barrier).
- a manual or automatic safety cover correctly installed and fixed in position.
- a functional alarm to detect proximity to the pool or falls into the water.
Safety equipment will under no circumstances replace close surveillance.
Outside the pool season, the pool should be covered with a winter cover correctly positioned and
w
attached. This serves an additional function in that it renders the pool less attractive.
Make sure that there is a telephone (land line or mobile) within easy reach of the pool to avoid leaving
w
children alone in the event of a problem.
Learn first aid, especially those techniques applicable to children, to provide assistance in the case of an
w
accident.
Take steps to prevent access to the pool if the filtration system is damaged and during maintenance
w
operations.
In the event of an accident
w
Get the child out of the water as quickly as possible.
w
Call for help immediately and follow the advice given.
w
Remove the wet clothes and wrap the child in warm blankets.
w
MEMORISE EMERGENCY SERVICE NUMBERS AND DISPLAY THEM CLOSE TO THE POOL
