OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1
SETTING UP THE POWER SUPPLY
1. Place the Power Supply in a dry, sheltered area at least 12 feet / 4 meters away from the pool. Since the Power Supply
is water resistant, not water proof, therefore should be placed in an elevated dry area where it will not be allowed to
sit in puddles of water.
2. Plug the Power Supply Cord into a standard Ground Fault Circuit Interrupted (GFCI) / Residual Current Device (R.C.D.)
protected outlet. If an outlet is not close enough, then a proper outdoor grounded extension cord may be used to connect
to the nearest grounded outlet as indicated above. (Remember to always keep the Power Supply at least 12 feet / 4 meters
away from the pool).
NOTE: For optimum cleaning performance locate the Power Supply at the mid-point of your pool’s longest side. This will
allow your cleaner to make the best use of its Floating Cable length without using excess Cable, which could result in it
unnecessarily twisting or kinking. Excess Cable should be kept coiled outside the pool near the Power Supply.
IMPORTANT: Your pool cleaner system has an internal timer, which will automatically shut off the cleaner after 2 hours
of operation. However, the Power Switch will remain in the “ON” position. To re-start the pool cleaner for another cycle,
switch the Power Supply “OFF”, and then switch it back to the “ON” position and press the Reset Button. Some models
are equipped with the ability to connect to and be operated by an external time source, such as an auto-control system for
pools or standard plug-in timers.
Please refer to “EXTERNAL AUTO TIMER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS” for detailed instructions for this type of operation.
STEP 2
PLACING THE CLEANER IN THE POOL
1. With the Power Supply ON/OFF Switch in the OFF position, plug your cleaner’s Floating Cable into the Power Supply
Socket..
2. Holding your cleaner firmly by its Handle, place your cleaner in the pool upside down, gently tilting it side to side to
allow any trapped air to escape. Once the air is removed, turn your cleaner right side up and allow your cleaner to sink to
the pool bottom, with its wheels down.
NOTE: If your cleaner does not sink it is because air is still trapped inside. Repeat Step 2.
3. Uncoil the Floating Cable that extends from the cleaner’s body and spread it over the pool water surface as evenly as
possible. If your pool is elongated (rectangular, oval, etc.), place the Floating Cable at the middle of the pool’s
length to allowing adequate Cable length to reach the entire pool. Make sure that the Floating Cable is not tangled
or kinked.
WARNING! A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) / Residual Current Device (R.C.D), must be installed and
connected with to protect your electric outlet and to prevent and possible electrical shock!
Set the operating mode for your cleaner after the cleaner has been placed in the pool, the Floating Cable from
the cleaner has been plugged in to the Power Supply and the Power Supply has been plugged into a GFCI
protected 115v electrical outlet.
The Power Supply should be placed in a sheltered area, at 12 feet / 4 meters away from the pool. While the
Power Supply is weather-resistant, it should be placed in an elevated area where it will not sit in puddles of
water.
Never allow anyone to swim in the pool while the cleaner is in the pool!
Never operate your cleaner when it is not totally submersed in the pool water! Doing so may cause severe
damage to motor and require costly repairs!
