GENERAL INSTALLATION INFORMATION
Pre-installation check list
Before installing your cleaner, review and understand all warnings and safety information in this guide. Failure to
follow these instructions or improper installation of the cleaner can result in damage to the pool finish or the vinyl
liner, Pentair Water Pool and Spa, Inc. disclaims any liability for repairs or replacement to any of these structures
or components of the customer's pool.
Before installing the cleaner in a vinyl liner pool:
Check liner closely for signs of deterioration or damage from age, chemicals, pool wall damage, etc. If any
damage is found, have a qualified pool professional make all the necessary repairs. Also, if there are stones,
roots, etc., under the liner, remove them before installing the cleaner.
Before installing the cleaner in a gunite pool or a pool that is partially or completely tiled:
Repair loose tiles and tighten any loose light rings.
Before installing the cleaner, clean your filter system:
Make sure you have cleaned the filter, including backwashing, rinsing, and emptying all baskets. A clean
system is necessary for proper cleaner operation and coverage.
Before installing the cleaner, fill the hose with water:
Always make sure the cleaner head is submerged and the hose is full of water before connecting the hose to
the filtration system (whether through a skimmer or dedicated wall fitting). Air in the system can damage the
pump through dry running and overheating.
Before installing the cleaner, understand cleaner coverage:
The cleaner is designed to rid your pool of debris in approximately 4-6 hours. Less time could be needed,
depending on the pool size. The cleaner was not designed to automatically clean steps or swimouts or to
work under a solar cover. It was also not designed to do initial cleanup for a new pool or when opening your
pool for the season.
AFTER installing the cleaner, make sure the cleaner is operating correctly :
The cleaner may need some minor adjustments to make sure it is operating properly so there is no damage
to the pool finish. Certain vinyl liner patterns are particularly susceptible to surface wear, pattern removal, ink
rubbing off of, or serious scratches to the pattern caused by objects coming into contact with the vinyl surface,
including automatic pool cleaners. Pentair Water Pool and Spa, Inc. is not responsible for any pattern removal,
abrasions or markings on vinyl liners.
