General Aquatic Safety - Intex PRISM FRAME 26795EH Owner's Manual

POOL SETUP ( continued )
12. Fill the pool with water up to just below the sleeve line.
(see drawing 9).
NOTE: The pool side walls and frame structure will lean
inward after having been filled with water to the
recommended level. Do not be concerned by the inward
leaning of the side walls, this is to accommodate the water
movement and pressure when the pool is in use.
13. Posting aquatic safety signs
Select a highly visible area near the pool to post the included Danger No Diving or Jumping sign.
Before allowing anyone to use the pool, hold a family meeting. Establish a set of rules that
include, at a minimum, the important safety rules and general aquatic safety information in
this manual. Review these rules on a regular basis and with all users of the pool, including
guests.

GENERAL AQUATIC SAFETY

Water recreation is both fun and therapeutic. However, it involves inherent risks of injury and death.
To reduce your risk of injury, read and follow all product, package and package insert warnings and
instructions. Remember, however, that product warnings, instructions and safety guidelines cover
some common risks of water recreation, but do not cover all risks and dangers.
Assign an adult to be responsible for watching children in the pool. Give this person a "water
watcher" tag and ask that they wear it the entire time they are in charge of supervising children in
the pool. If they need to leave for any reason, ask this person to pass the "water watcher" tag and
the supervision responsibility to another adult.
For additional safeguards, also familiarize yourself with the following general guidelines as well as
guidelines provided by nationally recognized Safety Organizations:
• Demand constant supervision. A competent adult should be appointed as a "lifeguard" or water watcher,
especially when children are in and around the pool.
• Learn to swim.
• Take the time to learn CPR and first aid.
• Instruct anyone who is supervising pool users about potential pool hazards and about the use of protective
devices such as locked doors, barriers, etc.
• Instruct all pool users, including children what to do in case of an emergency.
• Always use common sense and good judgement when enjoying any water activity.
• Supervise, supervise, supervise.
