Safety instructions The use of a mini-pool assembly kit assumes that it meets the safety provisions that are described in the maintenance instructions. Pay particular attention to safeguarding access to the mini-pool to prevent drowning and any other serious injuries, since children under the age of 5 may unexpectedly gain access, and when children are bathing they must be under uninterrupted adult supervision. Safety of non-swimmers!

• A competent adult must provide constant, active, and attentive supervision of weak and non-swimmers at all times. (You are reminded that the greatest risk of drowning is among children under 5 years of age).

• When in use, designate a competent adult as a supervisor.

• Weak and non-swimmers should wear person- al flotation devices whenever they enter the mini-pool.

• When the mini-pool is not being used or su- pervised, remove all play items from the pool and the pool area to prevent children from being attracted there.

• When the mini-pool is not being used or supervised, remove all play items and objects (e.g. chairs, large toys, etc.) that might give a child easy access to the mini-pool from the mini-pool area. Safety features

• It is recommended to set up a barrier (and secure all doors and windows, if any such exist) in order to prevent unauthorised access to the mini-pool.

• Personal protective equipment, barriers, pool covers, alarm systems, and similar security devices are sensible aids but they are not replacements for continuous and competent supervision by adults. Safety equipment

• It is recommended to keep rescue equipment (e.g. a lifebelt) close to the pool.

• Keep a functioning telephone and list of emer- gency numbers close to the mini-pool. Safe use of the mini-pool

• All users, especially children, are en- couraged to learn how to swim.

• Learn first aid (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) and update your skills and knowledge regu- larly. This can make a life-saving difference in an emergency.

• Instruct all pool users, including children, about what to do in an emergency.

• Never jump into shallow water. This can lead to serious injury or death.

• Do not use the mini-pool under the influence of alcohol or medications that may impair the ability to use the pool safely.

• If pool covers are used, remove them com- pletely from the water surface before entering the mini-pool.

• Always keep the water purified and hygieni- cally safe to protect the users of the mini-pool from water-borne diseases. Consult the Instructions for Use for the guidelines on water purification.

• Keep chemicals (e.g. products for water pu- rification, cleaning, or disinfection) out of the reach of children.

• Detachable ladders must be placed on a horizontal surface. Risk of injury!

• Follow the instructions on the label.

• Do not bring any sharp or pointed objects with you.

• Protect the product from contact with any dubious liquids or acids. This may otherwise cause irreparable damage.

• Protect the product from excessive heat and cold! Be careful with lit cigarettes!

• Ensure that you do not walk over stony ground to avoid damaging the product.

• Do not make any technical modifications to the product. Modifications of any kind compromise use of the product and nullify the warranty.

• Never use the product under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medications.

• Under no circumstances should the inflated product be transported by vehicle.

• Do not use the product if there is a leak and is losing air. Avoiding material damage!

• Avoid contact with corrosive, sharp, or dan- gerous items, chemicals, or liquids. Should this nevertheless happen to occur, inspect the pool thoroughly for damage.

• Keep the product away from fire and hot objects (e.g. lit cigarettes).

• All inflatables are susceptible to cold. For this reason never unfold and inflate the product at a temperature lower than 15 °C!

• Inflate the product’s air chamber to a maxi- mum operating pressure of 1.0 bar (15 psi).

• In the event that the air pressure increases in the hot sun, it must be balanced accordingly by letting out air. Open the valve and let out some air whenever the pressure is above 1 bar (15 psi).

• Make sure that the product, especially when inflated, does not come into contact with stones, gravel, or sharp objects and does not rub or scrape against anything as this can cause damage.

• Use only the correct pump adapter to insert into the valve. The valve may otherwise become damaged.

• Do not use a compressor to inflate the prod- uct.

• Do not over-inflate because you then risk tear- ing open the welded seams. Close the valve properly after inflating. GB41

• Using auxiliary equipment not permitted for the mini-pool (e.g. ladders, covers, pumps, etc.) can lead to risk of injury or damage.

• Check the product for damage or wear before each use. The product may be used only when in good working order and condition! Selecting a location WARNING. Mini-pools that are placed on uneven surfaces tend to leak, deform, or collapse, leading to material damage or serious bodily harm to those who are in or around the mini-pool! WARNING. Personal injury hazard! Do not use sand when setting up. If the use of an “aid for levelling” is needed, it is highly likely your set-up location is unsuitable. WARNING! Set the mini-pool up at a location where continuous supervision is possible in order to avoid the risk of small children drowning. WARNING! Select your set-up location carefully because grass and other desirable plants growing underneath the product will die. In addition, be sure not to install the product on surfaces on which vigorous plants and weeds frequently grow because both can pierce through the product. WARNING! The mini-pool must be within reach of a 230-240 volt mains connection protected by a circuit breaker operated by residual current (FI circuit breaker). The product must be set up at a minimum distance of 2 metres from the power source but no further than the length of the filter pump cord. Under no circumstances may an extension cable be used to extend the range for connection. Comply with the following instructions before you set the product up.

1. Select a suitable surface that is firm, flat (no

humps or mounds), and completely level. There may not be a slope of more than 3° at any point on the set-up site.

2. Make sure that the site is free from branch-

es, stones, sharp-edged and other foreign objects so that the product does not become damaged.

3. Select a location where the product will not

be beneath power cables or trees. Take care also that there are no underground pipes, supply lines, or cables on the site.

4. Insofar as possible, select a location where

your product will be in direct sunlight. This will heat up the water in the pool. Assembling the mini-pool At least two people should assemble the product. You will need around 30 minutes just for the assembly, not including site prepa- ration and filling up with water. Contact the Service Hotline if you have any questions or need assistance with the assembly. Follow the individual assembly steps in the order indicated.

1. Select a smooth and clean surface with

enough space to unpack the product. Check that all individual parts are present and in good order and condition.

2. When assembling the product for the second

and subsequent times, you should inspect it for any possible damage, holes, and tears, and these should be sealed as described later.

3. It is recommended that you do not fill the

mini-pool with groundwater, water obtained from drilling, or from wells: typically, such wa- ter contains organic substances contaminated with nitrates and phosphates. You are advised to fill the mini-pool with water from the public drinking water supply. Inflating the mini-pool WARNING!

• Avoid inflating the air chambers too much because there is the risk of over-stretching the welded seams and even tearing them open.

• The operating pressure may increase in the sun. Balance out the operating pressure by letting out the air from the mini-pool.

• Use standard commercial foot pumps or dou- ble-stroke piston pumps with matching adapter attachments and pressure gauge to inflate the mini-pool.

• Do not use a compressor or compressed-air bottle to inflate the mini-pool. This can cause damage.

• Always inflate the mini-pool fully.

• Do not inflate the pool next to pointed or sharp objects or on rough or pebbly ground.

• Always inflate the air chamber fully. IMPORTANT!

• Only open the valve to inflate and to let out air. It may otherwise become contaminated.

• The area around the valve must always be clean and dry.

• Make sure that no sand or other contaminants get into the valve. Important!

• The optimal operating pressure for the air chamber is 1 bar (15 psi).

1. Open the valve seal (1a) (fig. B).

2. Inflate the air chamber until the product is suffi-

ciently firm. Make sure that the air chamber is positioned centrally over the mini-pool. Note: The air chamber must feel firm to the touch but still give when pressed gently with the thumb. Do not inflate the air chamber too tightly, as it might burst or the seams could become damaged.

3. Close back the valve outlet.

Filling the product with water WARNING. If more than 2.5-5cm of water collects on one side before the middle has filled up, the mini-pool is standing unevenly and has to be positioned correctly. To do this, pull the outflow plug (1c) out and let the water drain off completely. Place the mini-pool in another even location.

1. Close the outflow plug (1c), screw the valve

cover (1b) onto the outflow valve (fig. B), and close the filter pump valves (1d) with the plas- tic stoppers (8) on the inside of the mini-pool. Fill the product with water slowly. Do not leave the product unattended while filling. Note: Fill the product fully up to the printed marking shown. The mini-pool automatically straightens up with the volume of water.

2. Once 2.5cm of water is spread uniformly over

the floor of the mini-pool, smooth out the floor. Pull out the outer wall from the upper edge all around the floor of the pool. Impact of water quality To keep the coating performing efficiently, and for aesthetic considerations, appropriate treatment procedures and/or recommendations of the pool manufacturer should be applied in a timely manner. It is essential that you read the manufacturer’s product instructions and instruc- tions for use before application in order to check that they are compatible with the top layer of the polyester skin. These products and procedures must correspond to the recommendations made herein. Although the water used for filling generally comes from the public drinking water network, it can also come from a drill hole, tank, or well. In such case, a regular analysis of the water, including physical-chemical analysis, is vital in order to verify the possible presence of any metals (iron, copper, manganese) that may have a negative impact on the top layer, as there is a risk that colour stains will form due to metal sulphides. An analysis is the basis for the approaches required in order to ensure good quality of water for bathing as well as stability of the top layer. This quality analysis of the water used for filling must be assessed and approved by the mini-pool manufacturer. However, the tartaric stabilisation and/or the formation of metals must be avoided. It is rec- ommended to use calcium sequestering agents (lime scale remover or descaler) and sequester- ing agents for metal ions for this purpose. WARNING. Calcium sequestering agents (lime scale remover or descaler) and sequestering agents for metal ions often contain phosphorus or phosphorous bonding agents that can cause or promote the growth of algae and/or can have an influence on measurements (of free chlo- rine, redox potential) with online devices. For this reason, when measuring with online systems, preference should be given to ion exchangers and/or metal filters in the water line (before water runs into the pool). The use of products and/or treatment process- es must be validated by a professional, since irreversible damage could occur to the surface layer in particular combinations. When disinfecting with the aid of products based on stabilised chlorine or of stabilisers only, the dosage recommended by the manufac- turer (which should be in accordance with “EN 16713-3”) must be applied. Renewing water after a purifier/purge filter must make it possible to prevent a concentration of cyanuric acid of more than 75mg/l. Otherwise a reduction of (at least) 30% in the mini-pool volume is required so as not to dam- age the surface layer. GB42 Follow the instructions provided by the manufac- turer for winter storage. No shock disinfection may be performed shortly before covering up the mini-pool because within 8 hours of disin- fecting there is a risk of chemical damage to the coating of the mini-pool. Accessibility WARNING! Never leave your child unattended – Risk of drowning. A competent adult must provide constant, active, and attentive supervision of weak and non-swim- mers at all times. (You are reminded that the greatest risk of drowning is among children under 5 years of age). Keep a telephone or another means of communi- cation ready near the pool to give information to emergency services if needed. Even when the pool is not in use the following steps must be considered:

• Make the mini-pool inaccessible to the extent possible (e.g. by locking doors, windows, and access routes to the swimming pool; and/or

• by installing a protective device; and/or

• by emptying the mini-pool. Disassembling the mini-pool WARNING. When draining the water make sure that there are no children downstream and opposite the outflow. The water flow might carry the children away with it. To store the product at season’s end or for a lengthy period of non-use, proceed as follows:

1. Disconnect the filter pump (2) from the power

2. Connect your garden hose with the hose

adapter, open the outflow plug (1c), and place the other end of the hose where the water can drain off harmlessly. Note: Please follow the local regula- tions regarding specific requirements for disposing of water from swimming pools.

3. Disconnect the hoses of the filter pump (3)

5. Let the mini-pool dry out completely. This is

best done in the sun.

6. Close all valves before folding up the mi-

ni-pool. Folding up the mini-pool (fig. F)

1. Fold the protruding sides inwards to form a

2. Fold each half of the rectangle inwards to

make a smaller rectangle.

3. Fold the ends backwards.

4. Coil the product up into a small rectangle.

Care, storage, repairs, maintenance Care WARNING! Do not use aggressive cleaning agents, brushes with metal bristles, or sharp-edged or metallic objects such as knives. Use only mild detergent. WARNING. The purpose of the filter pump (2) included in delivery is to remove dirt and small particles from the water. However a consistent chemical water treatment is required for clean water free of algae and harmful bacteria. Ask a specialist retailer about materials to use, such as chlorine, shock treatments, algaecides, and other chemicals. WARNING. Never add chemicals to the mi- ni-pool when people are inside. This can cause skin and eye irritations! Never add chemicals or substances to the mini-pool if you cannot verify their correct use. Ask a specialist retailer regarding what chemicals to use, their guidelines and instructions. WARNING. Owners of mini-pools are required to test the water regularly to determine the pH and chlorine levels in the water and to make adjustments when necessary. Ask a specialist re- tailer about suitable test kits and their instructions for use. WARNING. Failure to comply with these main- tenance instructions can seriously endanger the health of bathers, especially that of children. When the mini-pool is in use its filter system should be in operation long enough each day for the total water volume to be recycled com- pletely at least once (approx. 4-5 hours). In order to guarantee the adequate cleanli- ness and hygiene of the water in the mini-pool throughout the whole season, comply with the following instructions:

1. Correct and continuous use of basic chemical

products for swimming pools is required in order to maintain an appropriate pH level in the water of the mini-pool. Moreover, the use of such chemicals prevents the growth of harmful bacteria and algae in the water and supports the filter pump in keeping your water clean. The following chemicals are suitable for your mini-pool:

• Chlorine in the form of tablets, granules, or liquid: Disinfects the mini-pool water and prevents the growth of algae.

• Chemicals that control the pH level: Serve to correct the pH level and make the water either more or less acidic.

• Algaecides: Are used to destroy algae.

• “Shock treatment” (super-chlorination): Eliminates specific organic and other combined compounds that affect the clarity of the water. Ask a specialist retailer about the specific use of chemicals. State the nominal filled volume of your mini-pool and give them a water sample, if asked. They can best advise you regarding suitable chemicals, suitable amounts, and effective use.

2. Chlorine may never come into direct contact

with the cladding of the mini-pool until it is first completely dissolved. Chlorine in the form of tablets or granules must first be dissolved in advance in a bucket filled with water before it is added to the water of the mini-pool. Liquid chlorine must be added to the mini-pool water slowly and uniformly over various areas. Danger! Never pour water onto chemicals. Add the chemicals to the water. Never mix separate chemicals. Add them to the water separately so that the first chemical has dissolved completely and spread before you add the second.

3. When temperatures are high, clean the mi-

ni-pool several times each week to limit algae formation manually. Ask a specialist retailer about what cleaning agents to use, e.g. pool- floor suction cleaners, nets, brushes, etc.

4. Ask a specialist retailer about purchasing a

test kit to check the pH level. Note: An excessive concentration of chlorine, as well as low (acidic) pH levels, can damage the mini-pool cladding and immediate remedi- al steps are required if the test result indicates either of the two conditions.

5. Inspect the filter pump cartridge every two

weeks (or more frequently if the mini-pool is used frequently). Clean or replace it when necessary, e.g. If it is no longer white. Initially, it can be hosed down with a water hose. If it is still no longer white, it must be replaced. Checking regularly maintains the effectiveness of the filter pump.

6. Make sure that the mini-pool does not over-

flow by accident because of rain or for some other reason, whenever it has water in it. Oth- erwise, the mini-pool may become damaged. Reduce the water level immediately. Storage WARNING! If the product is stored improperly, there is the risk of mildew forming. If you live in a climate zone in which the mi- ni-pool is not used throughout the year, it is very strongly recommended to drain out the water, clean it thoroughly, let it dry, and store it in a protected location outside the season.

• Store the product in a clean, well-ventilated, and dry place away from direct sunlight where it is not exposed to wide variations in temperature.

• Store the product in a location that is inacces- sible to children and securely locked.

• Do not place any heavy or sharp-edged objects on the product.

• Inspect the product after lengthy storage for signs of wear or ageing. Repairs WARNING! Check the mini-pool for loss of pressure, holes, and tears before use each time. If the mini-pool is losing air, this may be because of a leak on the valve, a defective valve, or a leak in the mini-pool. GB43 When there is more serious damage do not per- form repairs yourself under any circumstances. You can repair minor damage with the repair kit (7) supplied. Leaks Use only appropriate adhesives to repair leaks on the mini-pool (1). Repairs made with unsuita- ble adhesives can lead to further damage! You can obtain suitable adhesives from a specialist retailer. Note: You can repair small areas (smaller than 2mm) with the adhesive just by applying the adhesive directly to the area. For larger areas (more than 2mm) proceed as follows:

1. Let the air out of the pool (1) completely.

2. Clean the area for repair thoroughly.

3. Dry the cleaned area.

4. Take one of the patches and trim a piece that

covers the damaged area and overlaps by 1.5cm on all sides.

5. Press the patch down firmly on the leak area

with a soft object. Be sure to work on an even surface without wrinkles or folds. Gently re- move any air bubbles with a rounded object, working from the inside towards the outside.

6. Allow the patch to dry for at least 12 hours

after repair. Important: Check that the repaired area is waterproof before you fill the mini-pool with water after repair. When there is very serious damage do not perform repairs yourself under any circumstances. Take the mini-pool to a specialist workshop for repair. Maintenance The owner is primarily responsible for the main- tenance of the mini-pool and the accessories. Mini-pool The following should be avoided: - direct contact with the surface of the top layer by, or overdoses of, water treatment agents other than those indicated in EN 16713-3 (since this can lead to irreversible discolouration); - mechanical impacts (e.g. falling blunt objects such as sunshades, garden chairs, diving equipment, etc.) can cause impressions or deep scratches on the top layer; - unusual rubbing together of two surfaces; - contact over a long period of oxidisable metal objects or organic materials with the top layer. The water line is particularly susceptible to deposits such as lime, metals, or other greasy products (sun lotion) that may be deposited on the top layer. Regular maintenance of the water line is recommended to prevent these deposits getting inside the top layer and making cleaning impossible. Regular and careful maintenance should be performed using appropriate products that do not scour and are compatible with the top layer. Never use cleaning products that are not intend- ed for swimming pools (household cleaners) and/or abrasive cleaning agents. Disposal Dispose of the article and the packaging materi- als in accordance with current local regulations. Packaging materials such as foil bags are not suitable to be given to children. Keep the pack- aging materials out of the reach of children. Dispose of the products and the packaging in an environmentally friendly manner. The recycling code is used to identify various materials for recycling. The code consists of the recycling symbol – which is meant to reflect the recycling cycle – and a number which identifies the material.

IAN: 388656_2107 Service Great Britain Tel.: [phone] E-Mail: [e-mail] GB44 Discolourations and their possible causes Despite using high-performance materials and taking into consideration all of the aforementioned precautions, unusual stains may appear because of ageing. It is important to remember that the top layer gradually becomes discoloured because of ageing and the effects of UV rays. The following may cause accelerated discolouration: - use of unsuitable products and procedures for water preparation that do not match the manufacturer’s recommendations; - excessive mechanical impact (tidal swimming pools, floating layers of ice, automatic cleaners, and brushes, etc.); - high water temperature; - impact of the materials and the manufacturing process. Sometimes a slight difference in colour appears between the areas that are immersed in the water and the areas that lie above the surface of the water. This is quite normal. Stains and their possible causes Because of the many influencing factors, such as those mentioned above, it is extremely difficult to determine what causes stains. Stains that occur above the waterline are rarely deep in the top layer. The following table shows the possible causes of stains once the mini-pool is in normal operation. To find the possible causes a sensible approach is to implement the measures described in the following record sheet: If these are unsuccessful, possible influences of the manufacturing process may be involved. Types of stain Possible cause Possible solution Whitish stain on the floor of the mini-pool. Wrong water preparation Stains are irreversible and cannot be repaired. Decomposition of organic substances (humus, twigs, leaves) that are in direct contact with the top layer. The effect is more considerable when there has been contact over a longer period of time. Whitish stains on the floor of the mini-pool and on the walls. Excessive concentration of chemical products. Stains are irreversible and cannot be remedied. Whitish stains at the waterline Lime scale deposits These deposits can be prevented by using calcium sequestering agents and by maintaining the pH level balance. Cleaning is possible before placement by using a suitable product, solvent-free and non-abrasive, while taking care not to scratch the layer. Control the water hardness regularly to reduce this effect e.g. with a pre-installed ion exchanger. unsuitable chemicals and/or abrasives Irreversible and untreated milky or bleached areas Presence of algae Decomposition of organic substances (leaves, dirt, vegetation) This can be prevented by regular maintenance of the mini-pool (cleaning). Use of copper sulphate in pure or mixed form and application of the Cu/Ag process Irreversible. These products are not allowed in this type of mini-pool. unintentional presence of oxidisable metal parts (metal deposits ...) Earthingª the mini-pool: Earthing the water in the mini-pool can reduce this effect. Earthing must be via a different ground rod than the one for the security of the house. This functional earthing will merely permit leakage currents to be dissipated so as to limit the electrical charge of the pool water. Migration of metal through the top layer (cobalt- based gel layer) Presence of metal ions (copper, iron, manganese ...) in excessive concentrations and dark, insoluble metal sulphides The use of metal ion sequestering agents is recommended to prevent high concentrations of metal ions that may contribute towards the formation of permanent staining on the top layer of the mini-pool.

Suntan lotions and cosmetics that float on the surface of the water, combustion of hydrocarbons from wood or charcoal fire, car exhausts, aeroplane exhausts, or any other pollution from the immediate vicinity or more distant surroundings of the mini-pool. Green stains Since they are organic in origin, these stains only occur when living organisms are present (algae, fungi, etc.) and may be related to a significant disturbance in the balance of the water preparation. See operating instructions and tips of the mini-pool manufacturer, for the filter unit or chemicals. GB45 Types of stain Possible cause Possible solution Pink stains These are generally found on seal parts and caused by bacteria that grow on components of these plastic parts and may be related to the water preparation. If PHMB is used for disinfection in the presence of copper, there is a risk of pink stains forming. Yellow stains These are generally found on seal parts and caused by bacteria that grow on components of these plastic parts and may be related to the water preparation. If PHMB is used for disinfection in the presence of copper, there is a risk of pink stains forming. Presence of pollen or red algae, agricultural work, greasy products (suntan lotion or cosmetics), organic remnants (decomposition of plants) or dirt some calcium compounds, which are used in chemical products (pebble-shaped), tablets When the water in the mini-pool is prepared with bromine, it can cause stains (from yellow to brown) due to the combination of a higher dosage than the manufacturer recommendation and a pH level lower than 6.9. In most cases these stains are irreversible. Shock disinfection with an oxidising agent can lead to the formation of gas that burns the mini-pool surface where it is not in contact with water. It is important to react as soon as the stains appear. The swimming pool manufacturer is to be informed and they will furnish information about how to proceed, depending on the kind of stain.

WARNING: [Earthing the swimming pool promotes the corrosion of metal parts. When no electrical current reaches the mini-pool, no earthing is needed - see DIN VDE 0100-702.]

WARNING: Calcium sequestering agents often contain phosphorus or phosphorous bonding agents that can cause or increase the growth of algae and/or can affect measurements (of free chlorine, redox potential) with on-line devices. For this reason, when measuring with on-line systems, preference should be given to ion exchangers and/or metal filters in the water line (before water runs into the pool).

• WARNING. Do not use the filter pump to empty the pool. The pump may be used only on an erectable pool, not on one that has been sunk into the ground.

• WARNING. Power supply cord and input cable are not interchangeable. Should the power supply cord or the input cable become damaged, the power-supply unit or pump must be disposed of.

• WARNING. Pump and adapter may not be installed at locations where they may be sub- ject to flooding or where there is no suitable power outlet available.

• WARNING. Make sure that the external power outlet is protected with a residual-cur- rent-operated circuit breaker (FI/RCD) with a maximum trip current of 30 mA.

• WARNING. The filter pump must be at- tached to a stable base with screws before it is switched on.

• WARNING. Take care that the filter pump motor does not overheat. Ensure that the pump is always full of water so that it does not operate when empty. Incorrect use can lead to overheating and subsequent damage due to the motor burning out.

• WARNING. If air remains in the system, this makes the pump work faster and leads to damage. Switch the filter pump off and open the air release valve (2a) slightly to allow all air to escape from the hose and the filter pump.

• WARNING. The pump must be supplied via a residual-current-operated protective device with a rated differential current of not more than 30 mA.

• WARNING. The power-supply unit should be installed at least 2m away from the mini-pool. The mains plug should be located 3.5m away from the pool.

• WARNING. The pump should be firmly anchored to the ground to prevent it from possibly tipping over. Ask a specialist retailer regarding what screws or bolts to use. Risk of electrical shock! Defective electrical installation or too high a mains current can lead to electrical shocks. Connect the pump only to an easily accessible power plug so that you can quickly disconnect it from the mains supply in case of a failure.

• Connect the pump only to a correctly installed shock-proof socket and then only if the supply voltage of the socket matches the information on the product label.

• The pump may not be used when people are in the water.

• Do not operate the pump if it shows visible signs of damage or if the power cord and/or power plug is defective.

• If the power cord to the pump is damaged, the pump must be disposed of.

• Do not open the housing. Entrust repairs to professionals. Contact a specialist workshop. In the event of repairs being made inde- pendently (by the owner or by a third party) improper connections, or incorrect operation, liability and warranty claims are excluded.

• Only parts matching the original equipment data can be used in repairs.

• This pump contains electrical and mechanical parts that are indispensable to protect against potential hazards.

• Do not immerse the pump, power cord, or power plug in water or other fluids.

• Never touch the power plug with wet hands.

• Never pull the power plug out of the socket by the power cord; always hold the power plug instead.

• Never use the power cord to carry the product.

• Keep the pump, power plug, and power cord away from open flame and hot surfaces.

• Place the power cord so that no one can trip over it. Connecting the filter pump
