Maintenance And Storage; Troubleshooting - Project Source RPV31-PS Manual

MAINTENANCE & STORAGE
1. Battery discharges on its own during storage. Make sure to charge the pool vacuum to about 30% to 50%
of the battery capacity before it is stored.
2. You must re-charge the battery at least once every three months when it is not in use.
• Unplug the external adaptor from socket and then unplug the adapter jack from the charging base.
• Detach accessories from the pool vacuum. If necessary, rinse the pool vacuum and accessories with fresh water.
DO NOT use detergent.
• Make sure to drain the water from the unit, handle and pole connector.
• Use a damp cloth to clean and dry the pool vacuum and its accessories.
• Store them in a well-ventilated area away from the sunlight, children, heat, ignition sources, and pool chemicals.
Ambient temperature for storage should be 10˚C – 25˚C (50˚F – 77˚F). NOTE: A higher temperature may reduce
the battery life during storage.
WARNING!
- Never attempt in any way to disassemble the pool vacuum.
- Under no circumstances should you attempt to disassemble the pool vacuum and replace the impeller, motor and battery.
CAUTION!
• Excessive heat can damage the battery and reduce its lifespan as a result.
• Consult your dealer regarding battery replacement if the following happens:
- Battery does not charge fully.
- Battery operation time is noticeably reduced. Observe and record the run times of the first few operations
(on a full charge). Use these run times as a reference point to compare with run times of older batteries.
• The battery must be removed from the pool vacuum before it is scrapped.
• The pool vacuum must be disconnected from the supply mains when removing the battery
• The battery is to be disposed safely and according to local ordinances or regulations.
NOTE: Incorrect maintenance may reduce the battery life and affect its capacity as a result.
