SAFETy PRECAUTIONS
1. ALWAYS PUT THE MACHINE INTO THE WATER BEFORE CONNECTING IT TO THE ELECTRICAL OUTLET.
2. IT IS IMPORTANT FOR SWIMMERS’ SAFETY TO REMOVE THE UNIT IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING
USE. THIS CAN ALSO IMPROVE THE OPERATING LIFE OF YOUR MAKOSHARK 2 DC.
3. BE CERTAIN THE MACHINE IS ONLY PLUGGED INTO A PROTECTED 230 V
OUTLET THAT IS PRO-
TECTED FROM SHORT-CIRCUITS. FIT A 30 MA DIFFERENTIAL PROTECTION DEVICE TO PROTECT
PEOPLE FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK CAUSED BY A POSSIBLE BREAK IN THE ELECTRICAL INSULATION.
4. DO NOT HANDLE MACHINE WHILE IT IS PLUGGED INTO THE ELECTRICAL OUTLET.
5. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD. THIS COULD CREATE A SAFETY HAZARD AND/OR DAMAGE
YOUR UNIT.
6. ALWAYS STAY OUT OF THE POOL WHILE CLEANER IS IN OPERATION.
7. NEVER ALLOW PLUG TO ENTER THE POOL.
8. DO NOT OPERATE THE MACHINE OUT OF WATER. THIS WILL DAMAGE THE MOTOR SEAL AND
VOID THE WARRANTY.
9. DO NOT DRAG THE MACHINE OUT OF THE POOL AGAINST THE SIDE WALL. THIS COULD DAMAGE
UNIT AND/OR YOUR POOL WALL.
10. SOME POOLS HAVE A CORNER OR A CORNER STEP CONFIGURATION THAT MAY CAUSE THE
UNIT TO “HANG-UP;” THEREFORE, DO NOT LEAVE THE UNIT COMPLETELY UNATTENDED FOR
MORE THAN 1/2 HOUR. OCCASIONAL OBSERVATION AND ATTENDANCE CAN ALSO REDUCE ANY
TENDENCY FOR THE CORD TO TWIST.
11. THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE BY PERSONS (INCLUDING CHILDREN) WITH
REDUCED PHYSICAL, SENSORY OR MENTAL CAPABILITIES, OR LACK OF EXPERIENCE AND
KNOWLEDGE, UNLESS THEY HAVE BEEN GIVEN SUPERVISION OR INSTRUCTION CONCERNING
USE OF THE APPLIANCE BY A PERSON RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR SAFETY.
12. IF THE SUPPLY CORD IS DAMAGED, IT MUST BE REPLACE BY THE MANUFACTURER, ITS SER-
VICE AGENT OR SIMILARLY qUALIFIED PERSONS IN ORDER TO AVOID A HAZARD.
13. THE POWER SUPPLY MUST BE INSTALLED IN A FIXED STATION TO A MINIMUM OF 3.5 METERS
FROM THE POOL EDGE
14. ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MUST BE DONE BY A qUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN ACCORDING TO
LOCAL ELECTRICAL STANDARD (P8).
While the MakoShark 2 DC has been made to operate as safely as possible, we suggest you exercise reason-
able care in the handling of the vacuum and inspect the electrical cord frequently for damage or wear, as with
any other electrical appliance. After use, remove the unit and rinse with fresh water and remove any twists that
may be present in the cord.
