5. USING THE POOL CLEANER
The Pool Cleaner is very simple to use. Simply put it into the pool and make sure that it is properly
sitting on the floor of the pool. Turn it ON and let it get the job done.
5.1. Setup
Before using the Pool Cleaner for the first time perform the following steps:
Unwind the cable and stretch it out
completely so that it has no kinks.
Some models arrive with plastic coverings on the brushes.
Remove them before use.
While pushing in the handle buttons turn the ring so that the large projection on the ring lines up with
the projection on the Pool Cleaner body.

While pushing the button on each
float, pull it all the way out.

by inserting it with the notch on the connector (1)
lined up with the groove in the socket on the
power supply and turning clockwise (2).

5.2. Putting the Pool Cleaner into the pool
Holding the Pool Cleaner upside down in
the water gently rock it back and forth with
your fingers holding the plastic doors on
the bottom lid open to release trapped air.
Continue until no more bubbles are released.
If your Pool Cleaner is equipped with brushes that
contain sponges, dip the brushes in the water and
squeeze them so that they will absorb water the
first time you use the Pool Cleaner, or if the brushes
have dried out between uses.
Release the Pool Cleaner and let it sink to the floor
of the pool.
Make sure that the floating cable is free of any
obstructions.
To avoid kinks in the floating cable, place
approximately enough cable in the water for the
Pool Cleaner to reach the farthest corner of the
pool.
Turn the power supply ON.
The Pool Cleaner will now operate until it has
reached the end of the cleaning cycle.

is trapped in the impeller
The Pool Cleaner moves but
does not clean the pool
