1. Find your starting dial setting by matching up the
parameters of your pool on the above charts.
A 24 foot above ground pool with approximately 12,000
gallons and a 1 horse pump running 12 hours a day would
require a starting setting of 2.5. See example below.

2. For the first week or so, test
the water daily for free chlorine.
3. After day one, adjust the dial up
by 1/2 increment if the free chlorine
reading has dropped or down by
1/2 increment if the reading has
risen. Continue this process each
day until the reading stabilizes at
your desired level between 1.0- 3.0
ppm.
Remember to adjust dial by
1/2 increments only. Higher than
suggested settings could result
in over chlorination and/or
bleached pool surfaces.
4. Use the handle end of cap tool if
the dial is hard to turn.
Decrease the number of hours your
pump runs per day. Water must
circulate fully once a day. Remove
the Pac and place open ends down
on the equipment pad until dry.
Avoid inhaling fumes. Avoid placing
on any surface that may be damaged
by chemical exposure. Keep out of
reach of children and pets.
When reading drops to desired
ppm, replace Cycler Pac and ...
...decrease dial 1/2 increment.
Repeat this process until desired
chlorine level is maintained.
Increase the number of hours your
pump runs per day. If reading drops
below 1.0 ppm, shock pool again.
Turn control dial to minimum when
shocking and NEVER ADD SHOCK
IN OR NEAR THE SKIMMER. Reset
dial 1/2 setting higher than before and
continue to monitor daily until desired
chlorine level is achieved.
