Important Information
The following are important points to remember when installing and operating the Polaris Vac-Sweep
®
65.
• Always disconnect the Polaris from the pool wall when cleaning or backwashing the pool filter.
• After cleaning or backwashing, let the filtration system run for at least five minutes before
reconnecting the Polaris.
• New plumbing lines should be flushed out before installing the Polaris.
• Always handle the Polaris with care. Do not let children play with it; it is not a toy.
• Never handle the Polaris when it is operating.
• Always remove the Polaris before swimmers enter the pool.
• Always remove the Polaris from the pool before chemical shock treatments. As a general rule,
any pool water that is unsafe for swimming is unsafe for the Polaris.
• Carefully cut the float hose following the instructions on page 4.
By following these simple guidelines, you can help to protect against injury and prolong the life of your
Polaris 65.
When replacing any Polaris parts, always insist on genuine Polaris replacement parts. You can be sure you
are buying genuine Polaris parts if they come in Polaris part bags or have the Polaris logo on them.
Non-Polaris parts are not made to our specifications. They may have an adverse effect on the operation of
the Polaris or may even damage it. If you are unable to find genuine Polaris parts in your area, contact our
Customer Service Department to receive the name of a local Polaris dealer nearest you.

WARNING: USE OF POLARIS 65 IN A VINYL LINER POOL
Certain vinyl liner patterns are particularly susceptible to rapid surface wear or pattern removal caused
by a variety of objects coming into contact with the vinyl surface, including pool brushes, pool toys,
floats, fountains, chlorine dispensers, and automatic pool cleaners. Some vinyl liner patterns can be
seriously scratched or abraded simply by rubbing the surface with a pool brush. Ink from the pattern
can also rub off during the installation process or when it comes into contact with objects in the pool.
Polaris is not responsible for, and the Limited Warranty does not cover, pattern removal, abrasion or
markings on a vinyl liner.
