instructions. Remember, however, that product warnings, instructions
and safety guidelines cover some common risks of water recreation,
but do not cover all risks and dangers.
For additional safeguards, also familiarize yourself with the following

sign within this manual can be posted near your pool to help keep everyone
alert to the danger. You may also wish to copy and laminate the sign for
protection from the elements.
