Setup
1. Unpacking
Carefully remove the swim tubes from their packaging. Unfold each tube and lay it flat on a clean, smooth surface, free from sharp objects.

Operating Instructions
The Intex Neon Frost Swim Tubes are designed for floating and relaxation in water. Users should enter and exit the tube carefully. Always ensure the tube is fully inflated before use.
- Use in calm water environments, such as swimming pools or lakes.
- Do not use in strong currents or open water.
- Avoid jumping onto the tube from a height.
- Do not use as a diving platform.
Maintenance
1. Cleaning
After each use, rinse the swim tubes with fresh water to remove chlorine, salt, or dirt. Wipe them clean with a soft cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
2. Storage
Ensure the swim tubes are completely dry before deflating and storing. To deflate, open the valve cap and gently squeeze the tube to release air. Fold or roll the deflated tubes neatly and store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sharp objects.
3. Repair
In case of a small puncture, use a vinyl repair kit (sold separately) to patch the hole according to the kit's instructions. Ensure the patch is fully cured before re-inflating and using the tube.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Tube deflates quickly | Loose valve cap or small puncture | Check valve cap for secure closure. Inspect tube for punctures and repair with a vinyl repair kit. |
| Tube is difficult to inflate | Valve obstruction or insufficient pump power | Ensure the valve is clear of debris. Use an appropriate air pump for inflatables. |
