4 General Cleaner Operation
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the cleaner, be sure to adhere to the following guidelines:
• Remove the cleaner from the pool after the cleaning cycle is completed.
• Store cleaner out of direct sunlight or inclement weather.
• Never lift the cleaner out of the pool by the oating cable.
• Take additional care when lifting the cleaner out of the pool. It becomes heavier when
lled with water.
• Always remove the cleaner from pool before super chlorinating or adding acid.
• Do not handle cleaner while it is in operation.
IMPORTANT
• Always make sure the cleaner head is fully submerged before you begin
operation.
• Clean the lter canister after each cleaning cycle.
• Do not leave your cleaner in the pool on a permanent basis.
• At the end of each cycle, remove the cleaner from the pool.
• Start at the cleaner head and untangle any coils in the cable before storing the
cleaner.
The Polaris robotic cleaner includes a safety feature that automatically stops the
cleaner if it is powered on but not submerged in water. For pools equipped with a
beach area, this safety feature is programmed to drive the cleaner in reverse and
back into the pool when the impeller is out of the water.
