WARNING: USE OF POLARIS 65/TURBO TURTLE, 165/SUPER TURTLE IN A VINYL LINER POOL

Certain vinyl liner patterns are particularly susceptible to rapid surface wear or pattern removal caused by objects coming

into contact with the vinyl surface, including pool brushes, pool toys, floats, fountains, chlorine dispensers, and automatic pool

cleaners. Some vinyl liner patterns can be seriously scratched or abraded simply by rubbing the surface with a pool brush.

Ink from the pattern can also rub off during the installation process or when it comes into contact with objects in the pool.

Polaris is not responsible for, and the Limited Warranty does not cover, pattern removal, abrasion or markings on vinyl liners.
