Dear Hayward Robotic Cleaner Owner:
Thank you for choosing Hayward. In order to achieve optimal performance, please read and follow
these steps:
1. Cleaner filter cartridges should be thoroughly cleaned after each use or as often as needed to ensure
cleaner's optimal performance.
2. Before using your cleaner and especially when opening the pool for the first time remove larger
items from the pool that may diminish the cleaner's performance. Clean filter frequently when pool is
excessively dirty.
3. For the first use, run cleaner for the full cycle (4 hours) to ensure a clean pool and give yourself a full
understanding of the cleaner's capabilities.
4. Cleaner may periodically go to the wall but not necessarily climb to the vertical position. This is a
normal part of the programmed cycle.
5. Cleaner may stop in the middle of the pool and reverse during cleaning cycle. This is a normal part of
the programmed cycle.
6. DO NOT start cleaner out of the water. Power button should only be switched to "On" position when
unit is fully submerged. The unit will automatically shut off, but it is best to put power switch in "OFF"
position when unit completes cleaning.
7. Plug in only to a protected 230 V
differential protection device to protect people from electric shock caused by a possible break in the
electrical insulation.
8. Place the cleaner power supply so that it is at a minimum distance of 3.5 meters from the pool edge.
The length of the standard cleaner cable is 16,76 meters.
Hayward only guarantees the quality, performance and safety of its products when assembled with genuine Hayward manufactured parts.
