IMPORTANT WARNING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Disclaimer of Liability
About your Pool and Cleaner
There are a multitude of factors that contribute to the life of your pool. The
pool cleaner is a very passive product that will have no impact on pool life.
Please be aware that over time, deterioration, discoloration and brittleness
of any pool finish can be caused separately by, or in combination with,
age, an imbalance in pool water chemistry, improper installation and
other factors. Suction side pool cleaners, such as the
pool cleaner, will
not remove or cause wear on “good” pool plaster. In fact, the opposite is
true–pool plaster will eventually cause wear on the cleaner.
The same situation holds true for vinyl-lined in-ground swimming pools,
because vinyl liners are also affected by the environment and factors such
as pool water chemistry, sunlight and the pool’s surroundings. Therefore
over time, vinyl can become brittle and weak. In addition, vinyl-lined pools
are affected by the workmanship, composition and installation of the
liner and the workmanship and quality of construction of the supporting
walls and pool base. These are all factors which can contribute to liner
failure. The existence of any of these type of conditions in your pool is
not caused by the use or operation of the pool cleaner. The manufacturer
disclaims any liability for repairs or replacement to any of these structures
or components of the customer’s pool.
The pool owner must assume all responsibility for the condition and
maintenance of the pool’s surface, water and deck.
Before you begin to install the cleaner in your pool, please record the
serial number of your cleaner in the space provided below. This way, if you
need to refer to the serial number in the future, it will be readily available.
Figure 2, on page 1
shows where the cleaner’s serial number is located.
