Important Safety Instructions

Congratulations on purchasing this Polaris Robotic Cleaner. Please read through the entire
manual before installing your new robotic pool cleaner. Your cleaner must be installed and
operated as specified.
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
Failure to comply with the following warnings can result in permanent injury, electrocution or death.
PREVENT ELECTRICAL SHOCK
To reduce risk of electrical shock:
• Connect unit to receptacle protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). Such a GFCI
receptacle should be provided by a qualified installer and should be tested on a routine basis.
To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push the reset button.
Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI is defective. If
the GFCI interrupts power to the pump without the test button being pushed, a ground current
is flowing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this product. Disconnect the
cleaner and have the problem corrected by a qualified service representative before using.
• Per the United States National Electrical Code
from the edge of the (pool/spa) water. In Canada, the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) requires
a minimum distance of 3m (10 ft.) to be maintained between the pool edge and the control box.
Never submerge the control box.
• Do not enter pool while the Polaris cleaner is in water.
• Do not bury cord. Locate cord so as to prevent it from being damaged by lawn mowers, hedge
trimmers and other equipment.
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not use the Polaris robotic cleaner or control box if the
cord is worn or damaged. Contact Zodiac Pool Systems LLC. Technical Support immediately for
proper servicing and replacement of the damaged cord.
• Double insulation—For continued protection against possible electric shock, use only identical
replacement parts when servicing. Do not attempt repair of the Polaris robotic cleaner, control
box, power cord, or floating cable.
• NEVER OPEN CONTROL UNIT.
• DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD TO CONNECT THE UNIT TO ELECTRIC SUPPLY;
PROVIDE A PROPERLY LOCATED GFCI RECEPTACLE. THE CONTROL BOX SHOULD
BE PLUGGED INTO THE GFCI RECEPTACLE BOX.
PREVENT CHILD INJURY AND DROWNING
• To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to operate this product.
• Do not let anyone, especially small children, sit, step, lean, or climb on any equipment installed as
part of your pool's operational system.
WARNING
(NEC ), keep the control box at least five (5) feet
