GENERAL INFORMATION

WHEN TO CLEAN THE FILTER:
The filter cartridge should normally be cleaned when the pressure
gauge reading increases 10 PSI over the start-up pressure.
In some pools, accessories such as fountains or pool cleaners may be
noticeably affected by the normal decrease in flow as the filter becomes
dirty. If so, clean the filter more frequently (that is, at a pressure
increase of less than 10 PSI) in order to maintain the required flow.
Clean a new pool as well as possible before filling pool and operating
filter.
A typical pool installation will require approximately one week to obtain
and maintain the sparkle that your filter is capable of giving you.
Maximum pressure is 50 PSI (345 kPa). DO NOT connect the filter to a
city water system or to an individual water well system.
The Waterway Cartridge Filter is designed to filter water for swimming
pools and hot tubs only. On a new installation, we recommend:
1. Disassemble the filter after the initial cleanup. Follow
"Filter Disassembly/Assembly Procedure" on page 5.
2. Remove and hose down the cartridge to remove contaminant.
Maintain pool water pH between 7.2 and 7.6.
Make sure that the Pro-Clean Ring is securely locked in place before
operating filter.
Maintain the pressure gauge in good working order.
Replace a damaged gauge immediately.
Cleaning interval is based on pressure rise, not on the length of time the
filter is operated. Different water conditions will have different normal
cleaning intervals
NOTICE: Some pool disinfectants may clog the filter cartridge.
To maximize cartridge life and filter cycle time, closely follow the
disinfectant manufacturer's instructions when cleaning pool or filter.
Failure to follow these instructions may affect warranty coverage of the
cartridge.
