the bag when it is dry.

Backwashing the Pool Filter
Always disconnect the Polaris from the pool wall before cleaning or backwashing the pool
filter. After cleaning or backwashing, let the filtration system run for at least five minutes to
flush out the return lines before re-connecting the Polaris.
Storage and Winterizing
Never store the Polaris in direct sunlight. When storing for the winter, drain out all the water
(freeze damage is not covered under the warranty). Remove the UWF from the pool wall by
attaching the Quick Disconnect and using pulling pressure to unscrew. If necessary use the
UWF Removal Tool (part #10-102-00) available from an authorized Polaris dealer.
