WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY - do not permit children
to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all times.
WARNING - RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK - Connect only to a grounding
type receptacle. This product is provided with a ground-fault circuit-interrupter. If replacement of
the plug is needed, use only identical replacement parts.
WARNING -
The unit is provided with a ground-fault circuit-interrupter
(GFCI). To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push
the reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner,
the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the pump without the test button
being pushed, a ground current is flowing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock.
Do not use this pump. Disconnect the pump and have the problem corrected by a
qualified service representative before using.
CAUTION - To reduce the risk of electric shock the pool must be installed
no closer than 6 feet (1.8 m) from any electrical outlet. Do not place portable
appliances closer than 5 feet (1.5 m) from the pool.
DO NOT BURY CORD - Locate cord to minimize abuse from lawn mowers, hedge
trimmers, and other equipment.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of electric shock, replace damaged cord
immediately.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use extension
cord to connect unit to electric supply; provide a properly located outlet.
CAUTION: This pump is for use with storable pools only. Do not use with
permanently-installed pools. A storable pool is constructed so that it is capable of
being readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original integrity. A
permanently-installed pool is constructed in or on the ground or in a building such that
it cannot be readily disassembled for storage.
Please examine and verify all sand filter components are present before use. Notify
Bestway at the customer service address listed on this manual for any damaged or
missing parts at the time of purchase.
