12 Turn on the pump. To eliminate air trapped in the hose or in the pump
system, turn the air release valve (if any) 1-2 turns to allow air to escape. Refer to the
pump owner’s manual for details. IMPORTANT: Never run the pump dry as the motor
may overheat and damage the pump. Keep the
vacuum body under the water at all times during use, or the air will come into the
hose, causing the pump to run dry and damaging the pump.
13 If the debris bag (4) is full and experiencing low suction when vacuuming, turn off the
pump and bring the vacuum body assembly out of the water. Empty the debris bag by
reversing steps 1 to 3. Make sure the debris bag and vacuum body are clean before
replacing the components back. Repeat steps 1 to 3 to replace all components back.
NOTE: if experiencing low suction and the debris bag is clean, make sure the pump is
running, there is no blockage and/or air trapped along the water
circulation line.
• Release all the air from the hoses and filter pump before use.
• Keep the vacuum body under the water at all times during use.
• Remove the vacuum body assembly, hose and adaptor, and replace the strainer grid when
running the filter pump only and when the pool is not in use.
• Check and empty the debris bag regularly during and after each use.
IMPORTANT
The pool vacuum is now ready to use.

POOL VACUUM OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. The filter pump is an airtight system. To eliminate air trapped in the hose or in the
pump, turn the air release valve (if any) 1-2 turns in a counter-clockwise motion to
open the valve. Refer to the pump owner’s manual for details.
2. When water starts flowing out of the air release valve hole, screw in the air release
valve back into the filter housing cover. Do not over tighten the valve.
3. Connect the filter pump to the power outlet and turn ON the pump.
4. In soft gentle strokes "sweep" the entire bottom surface of the pool liner until it’s
clear of debris.
5. Make sure the filter pump is turned off, and disconnect the power cord from the
electrical outlet. Remove the pool vacuum from the pool.
6. Using the Set-Up instructions in reverse, disassemble the vacuum cleaner. Clean
the debris bag if necessary.
7. Store the pool vacuum in an area where it will not be a safety hazard.
If you experience low suction on the vacuum, check that all of the
air has been removed from the hose. If you still have a low suction
problem, please review the Troubleshooting Guide for your filter pump
under "Filter pump does not pump water or flow is very slow". Also,
check that the debris bag and filter pump cartridge are clean.
