Introduction; Thank You For Choosing Polaris; What To Expect From Your Polaris 360 - Polaris Vac-Sweep 360 Owner's Manual

I. Introduction
A. Thank You for Choosing
Polaris
Congratulations on the purchase of your new
automatic pool cleaner, and thank you for
choosing a Polaris Vac-Sweep 360. The Polaris
360 is designed to give you years of dependable
and efficient service. With the Polaris 360, you and
your family will spend more time enjoying your
pool and less time cleaning it.
The Polaris 360 has been built with the finest
materials available. It is backed by the Polaris lim-
ited warranty that protects against defects in parts
and workmanship (see the warranty on page 15).
Like most mechanical devices, it will require peri-
odic adjustments, routine maintenance, and the
replacement of certain hardworking parts. Be sure
to have the Polaris checked occasionally by your
local Polaris dealer.
Always insist on genuine Polaris replacement
parts. You can be sure you are buying genuine
Polaris parts if they come in Polaris part bags or
have the Polaris logo
parts are not made to our specifications. They
may have an adverse effect on the operation of
your Polaris or may even damage it. If you are
unable to find genuine Polaris parts in your
area, contact us at 1-800-VAC-SWEEP
(USA and Canada only) to receive the name
of the participating Polaris dealer nearest you.
The numbers in parentheses found throughout
the manual refer to the index numbers in the
Exploded Parts Diagram and Parts Identification
on them. Non-Polaris
Guide on pages 12-14. There are also part num-
bers listed in parentheses to help identify the
replacement parts available at your participating
Polaris dealer.

Once again, thank you for choosing a Polaris.
B. What to Expect from the
Polaris 360
When operating correctly, the Polaris 360 will
travel randomly throughout the pool, vacuuming,
sweeping and scrubbing the bottom. The climbing
ability of the Polaris is dependent on the pool's
shape and available water flow. It will climb better
in pools without sharp angles or curves in the
transition from the pool floor to the pool wall.
The Polaris comes equipped with an automatic
pressure relief valve in the quick disconnect.
If the Polaris is receiving too much water pres-
sure, it will release water at the quick disconnect.
Approximately every 3-1/2 minutes the Polaris
360 will go into back-up mode. At this time the
back-up valve will pull the Polaris away from
potential obstacles.
The sweep hose operates in a gentle sweeping
motion to prevent debris from becoming trapped
in hard-to-reach corners of the pool.
