3. Check pool for any leaks at valves or seams, check ground cloth for any evident water loss. Do not add chemicals until this has been done.
NOTE: In the event of a leak, patch your pool using the underwater adhesive repair patch provided. Refer to the FAQ's for further information.

POOL MAINTENANCE
Warning: If you do not adhere to the maintenance guidelines covered herein, your health might be at risk, especially that of children. Pool water treatment is essential for the safety of the users. Using chemicals inappropriately will cause property
damage and personal injury.
NOTE: The pump is used to circulate the water and to filter small particles. In order to keep your pool water clean and hygienic, you must also add chemicals.
1. It is recommended not to fill the pool with catchment water, drilling water, or drainage well water: these waters generally contain polluted organic substances including nitrates and phosphates. Filling pools with water from the public network is
advised.
2. Always keep your pool clean and apply the correct pool chemicals. Unsanitary water is a serious health hazard. It is recommended to use disinfectant, flocculant, acid or alkali chemicals to treat your pool.
3. Clean the PVC liner regularly with non-abrasive brushes or a pool vacuum cleaner.
4. Throughout the season, the water filtration system must run long enough each day to clean the entire volume of water in the pool.
5. Check the filter cartridge (or sand in a sand filter) regularly and replace dirty cartridges (or sand).
6. Regularly check the screws, bolts and all the metal parts for rust. Replace if necessary.
7. If it rains, check that the water level is not higher than the specified level. If water exceeds the specified levels, drain the pool to the specified level.
8. Do not use the pump when the pool is in use.
9. Cover the pool when not in use.
10. For pool water treatment, the pH value is very important.
ATTENTION: Do not leave the drained pool outside.
The following parameters ensure good quality water
Parameters
Water clarity
Colour of the water
Turbidity in FNU/NTU
Nitrate concentration above that of fill water in mg/l
Total organic carbon (TOC) in mg/l
Redox potential against Ag/AgCI 3,5 m KCl in mV
pH value
Free active chlorine (without cyanuric acid) in mg/l
Free chlorine used in combination with cyanuric acid in mg/l
Cyanuric acid in mg/l
Combined chlorine in mg/l
Repair
If your pool is damaged, use the repair patch. -see FAQ's for instructions.
Dismantling
1. Unscrew the drain valve cap on the outside of the pool counter clockwise and remove.
2. Connect the adaptor to the hose and put the other end of the hose in the area where you are going to drain your pool. (Check local regulations for drainage by-laws).
3. Screw control ring of the hose adaptor onto the drain valve clockwise. The drain valve will be open and water will start to drain automatically. ATTENTION: Water flow can be controlled with the control ring.
4. When draining is finished, unscrew the control ring to close the valve.
5. Disconnect the hose.
6. Screw the cap back onto the drain valve.
7. Air dry pool.
ATTENTION: Do not leave the drained pool outside.
Storage
1. Please remove all the accessories and spare parts of the pool and store them clean and dry.
2. Once pool is completely dry, sprinkle with talcum powder to prevent pool from sticking together, fold pool carefully. If pool is not completely dry, mould may result and will damage the pool liner.
3. Store liner and accessories in a dry place with a moderate temperature between 5ºC / 41ºF and 38ºC / 100ºF.
4. During rainy season, pool and accessories should be storaged as above instruction also.
5. Unproper draining of the pool might cause serious personal injury and/or damage to personal property.
