Connection Valve Assembly
For pool with connection valve
A
NOTE: If you want to connect other pool cleaning kits to the pool through the connection valve,
disassemble the Debris Screen from the Connector.
Assembly of the Frame pool can be completed without tools.
IMPORTANT: Bestway Inflatables will not be responsible for damage caused to the pool due to mishandling or failure to
follow these instructions.
1. Lay out all parts and check that you have the correct quantities as listed in the components list. If you are missing
any parts do not assemble the pool and contact Bestway Customers Service.
2. Spread out the pool and make sure the pool is right side up; let it sit exposed to direct sunlight for 1 hour or more so
that the pool is more flexible during set up.
3. Place the pool near an adequate drainage system to deal with overflow water and ensure the pool's inlet A and outlet
B are correctly positioned to allow your filter pump to connect to a power source. Note: Do not use extension power
cords to power your pump.
ATTENTION: Do not drag the pool on the ground, this can damage the pool.
Filling Pool with Water
ATTENTION: Do not leave pool unattended while filling with water
1. Fill pool until water capacity is 90%, DO NOT OVERFILL as this could cause the pool to collapse. In times of heavy
rainfall you may need to empty some of the water to ensure the level is correct.
2. When filling the pool is completed, check that the water is not collecting on any side to ensure the pool is level.
IMPORTANT: If pool is not level, drain water and re-level ground by digging out. Never attempt to move the pool with
water in it, serious personal injury or damage to the pool may result.
WARNING: Your pool may contain a great deal of pressure. If your pool
has any bulge or uneven side then the pool is not level, the sides may
burst and the water may discharge suddenly causing serious personal
injury and/or damage to property.
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

Repair
Check pool for any leaks from valves or seams, check the ground cloth for any evident water loss. Do not add
chemicals until this has been done.
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 the control ring of the hose adaptor clockwise onto the drain valve.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 and Winterization
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, mold 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 the rainy season, pool and accessories should be stored as per above instructions also.
5. Improper draining of the pool might cause serious personal injury and/or damage to personal property.
6. We strongly recommend the pool is disassembled during the off season (winter months). Store in a dry location out
of children's reach.
