WARNING
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
• Carefully read, understand, and follow all information in this user manual before installing and using the swimming pool. These warnings,
instructions, and safety guidelines address some common risks of water recreation, but they cannot cover all risks and dangers in all cases.
Always use caution, common sense, and good judgment when enjoying any water activity. Retain this information for future use. In addition, the
following information can be supplied depending on the pool type.
• Keep these instructions in a safe place. If instructions are missing, please contact the manufacturer or search it on the website
www.bestwaycorp.com.
• Designate a competent adult to supervise the pool each time it is being used.
• Barriers, pool covers, pool alarms, or similar safety devices are helpful aids, but they are not substitutes for continuous and competent adult
supervision.
Safe use of the pool
• Encourage all users especially children to learn how to swim.
• Learn Basic Life Support (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation CPR) and refresh this knowledge regularly. This can make a life-saving difference in the
event of an emergency.
• Instruct all pool users, including children, what to do in case of an emergency.
• Never dive into any shallow body of water. This can lead to serious injury or death.
• Do not use the swimming pool when using alcohol or medication that may impair your ability to safely use the pool.
Safety devices
• In order to prevent children from drowning, it is recommended to secure the access to the pool with a protection device. In order to prevent
children climbing from the inlet and outlet valve, it is recommended to install a barrier (and secure all doors and windows, where applicable) to
prevent unauthorized access to the swimming pool.
Safety equipment
• It is recommended to keep rescue equipment (e.g. a ring buoy) by the pool.
• Keep a working phone and a list of emergency phone numbers near the pool.
• When pool covers are used, remove them completely from the water surface before entering the pool.
• Protect pool occupants from water related illnesses, by keeping the pool water treated and practicing good hygiene. Consult the water treatment
guidelines in the user’s manual.
• Store chemicals (e.g. water treatment, cleaning or disinfection products) out of the reach of children.
• Use the signage as outlined below. Signage is to be displayed in a prominent position within 2m of the pool.
Keep children under supervision in the aquatic environment. No diving.
• Removable ladders shall be placed on a horizontal surface.
• Irrespective of materials used for swimming pool construction, accessible surfaces have to be checked regularly to avoid injuries.
• Regularly monitor bolts and screws. Remove splinters or any sharp edges to avoid injuries.
• Do not leave the drained pool outside. The empty pool is liable to become deformed and/or displaced due to wind.
• If you have a filter pump, refer to the pump’s manual for instructions.
• The pump cannot be used while people are inside the pool!
• If you have a ladder, refer to the ladder’s manual for instructions.
• WARNING! The use of a swimming pool implies compliance with the safety instructions described in the operating and maintenance guide. In
order to prevent drowning or other serious injuries, pay particular attention to the possibility of unexpected access to the swimming pool by
children under 5 years by securing the access to it, and, during the bathing period, keep them under constant adult supervision.
Non Swimmers safety
• Continuous, active, and vigilant supervision of weak swimmers and non-swimmers by a competent adult is required at all times (remembering that
children under five are at the highest risk of drowning).
• Weak swimmers or non-swimmers should wear personal protection equipment when using the pool.
• When the pool is not in use, or unsupervised, remove all toys from the swimming pool and its surrounding to avoid attracting children to the pool.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
CHECK LIST
Check the parts inside the manual. Verify that the equipment components represent the model that you had intended to purchase. In case of any
damaged or missing parts at the time of purchase, visit our website bestwaycorp.com/support.
CHOOSE THE CORRECT LOCATION
The surface chosen to install the pool on must respect the following conditions:
• Because of the combined weight of the water inside the pool and the pool users, it is extremely important that the surface chosen to install the
pool on is capable of uniformly supporting the total weight for the entire time the pool is installed. When choosing the surface, take into
consideration that water may come out of the pool when in use or when it rains. If the water softens the surface, it may lose its capability to
support the pool weight.
• Check the position of the vertical legs and/or the U-supports regularly. They must be on the same level as the bottom of the pool at all times. If the
vertical leg or the U-support starts to sink into the ground, drain the pool water immediately to avoid the pool collapsing due to the uneven loading
on the frame structure. Change the location of the pool or modify the surface material.
• The surface must be flat and smooth. If the surface is inclined or uneven, it can create an unbalanced loading on the structure of the pool. This
PRE-SETUP
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
EN can damage the welding points of the liner and bend the frame. In the worst cases, the pool can collapse, causing serious personal injury and/or
damage to personal property.
• We recommend positioning the pool away from any objects children could use to climb into the pool.
• Position the pool near an adequate drainage system to deal with overflow or to empty the pool. Ensure the pool side with the water inlet A and
outlet B is located in the same direction of the power source, where the filtration system has to be connected.
• The selected surface must be clear of any type of object. Due to the weight of the water, any object under the pool could damage or perforate the
bottom of the pool.
• The selected surface must be clear of aggressive plants and weed species. Those types of strong vegetation could grow through the liner and
create water leakage. Grass or other vegetation that may cause odor or slime to develop have to be eliminated from the set-up location.
• The selected location must not have overhead power lines or trees. Be sure the location does not contain underground utility pipes, lines or
cables of any kind.
• The selected position must be far from house entrance. Do not position any equipment or other furniture around the pool. The water that comes
out of the pool during use or due to product faults can damage furniture inside the house or surrounding the pool.
• The selected surface must be flat and without holes that can damage the material of the liner.
Suggested set-up surfaces: grass, ground, concrete, and all other surfaces that respect the above set-up conditions.
Surfaces to avoid: mud, sand, gravel, deck, balcony, driveway, platform, soft/loose soil or other surface that does not meet the above set-up
conditions.
• Check with your local city council for by-laws relating to fencing, barriers, lighting and safety requirements and ensure you comply with all laws.
• If a pump and/or ladder is included in the set, refer to the pump's and/or ladder's manual for safety instructions and installation. The ladder must
match the pool size.
• If during set up it is necessary to change the position of the pool, lift up the liner and do not drag it on the ground; the friction between the PVC
material and the ground can damage the pool liner.
• Follow the important instructions above to choose the correct surface and location to set up your pool. Damaged parts of the pool, due
to the fact that the set-up surface and location does not match the instructions, will not be considered as manufacture defect.
