Operation And Maintenance; Storage And Winterizing - Zodiac Pool Systems Aquasphere Kontiki 2 Guide Du Propriétaire

To maintain cleaner performance:
• Thoroughly clean the skimmer basket, pump basket and filter regularly. Always disconnect the
cleaner before backwashing.
• Always remove the cleaner from the pool before super chlorinating or adding pool chemicals. Wait
at least four hours before re-connecting the cleaner.
• Never coil the hose. Straighten a coiled hose with warm water or by laying it in the sun for a day.
A kinked or coiled hose will adversely effect the cleaner's coverage of the pool.
• When not in the pool, keep the disc flat to avoid warping.
• Periodically inspect cleaner parts for wear.
Clearing the Diaphragm
A quick-access system allows easy access to inspect
and clear the diaphragm.
To remove:
1. Holding the frame, turn the handnut counter-clockwise
and pull the cassette out of the cleaner.
2. Unscrew the diaphragm chamber from the
cassette pipe. Pull out the inner pipe and diaphragm.
3. Pull the diaphragm off the inner pipe.
Inspect the diaphragm for debris or wear, and rinse
it thoroughly with water. Replace it if necessary.
To install:
1. Verify that the retaining ring is on the diaphragm
and push the diaphragm onto the inner pipe.
2. Pull inner pipe and diaphragm into diaphragm
chamber and slide the chamber into the cassette.
Tighten the cassette securely but do not
over tighten.
3. Insert the cassette into the cleaner and turn the
handnut clockwise until it locks into place. The line
on the handnut should line up with the center ridge
on the frame assembly.

Storage and Winterizing

Never coil the hose. Always store the cleaner out of direct sunlight. When storing for the winter, drain all
water from the cleaner. Remove all connectors and adapters from the skimmer. Store the disc flat, and
hose sections disconnected, drained and straight.
