Introduction
This manual provides essential information for the safe and efficient setup, operation, and maintenance of your Intex Rectangular Frame Pool. Please read all instructions carefully before assembly and use to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. This large rectangular pool set, measuring 3x2 meters, is designed for family water activities and features a robust frame construction rather than an inflatable design, ensuring easy setup.
Safety Information
- Always supervise children in and around the pool.
- Do not dive or jump into the pool. The water depth is approximately 66 cm (26 inches).
- Ensure the pool is set up on a level, solid surface free of sharp objects.
- Keep all electrical devices away from the pool.
- Empty the pool completely when not in use for extended periods or before disassembling.
- This product is intended for ages 6 and above.
Parts List
Before beginning assembly, verify that all components are present and undamaged. Refer to the packaging for a complete list of parts. The main components include:
- Pool Liner (Blue, Rectangular)
- Metal Frame Pipes (various lengths and shapes)
- Corner Joints and T-Joints
- Leg Supports
- Pool Cover
- Drain Plug
Setup
Assembly typically requires two people and takes approximately 30 minutes.
- Site Preparation: Choose a flat, level area in your yard, free from debris, sharp objects, or uneven ground. A slight incline can cause the pool to collapse.
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging and lay them out. Identify each type of pipe and connector.
- Assemble Frame: Follow the diagrams provided in the separate assembly guide (if applicable) to connect the metal frame pipes using the corner and T-joints. Ensure all connections are secure.
- Install Liner: Once the frame is partially assembled, carefully spread the pool liner inside the frame. Ensure the drain plug is positioned correctly.
- Complete Frame Assembly: Finish connecting all frame components, ensuring the liner is properly stretched and aligned within the frame.
- Fill with Water: Begin filling the pool with water. As the water level rises, gently smooth out any wrinkles in the bottom of the liner. Stop filling when the water reaches approximately 66 cm (26 inches) from the bottom, or the designated fill line.

Operating the Pool
Once assembled and filled, your Intex Rectangular Frame Pool is ready for enjoyment. Remember to always follow safety guidelines.
- Water Level: Maintain the water level between the minimum and maximum fill lines to ensure proper structural integrity and filtration (if a pump is connected).
- Entry and Exit: Use a ladder designed for above-ground pools if the height requires it. Ensure the ladder is stable before use.
- Pool Cover: Use the provided pool cover when the pool is not in use to keep out debris and reduce water evaporation.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance is crucial for extending the life of your pool and ensuring clean water.
- Water Quality: Regularly test water chemistry (pH, chlorine levels) and adjust as needed. Consider using a compatible filter pump system (sold separately) for continuous water circulation and filtration.
- Cleaning: Skim debris from the surface daily. Use a pool vacuum or brush to clean the liner walls and bottom as needed.
- Draining: To drain the pool, connect a garden hose to the drain plug and direct the water to a suitable drainage area. Ensure the area can handle 3834 liters of water.
- Storage: Before storing, ensure the pool liner and frame components are completely dry to prevent mold and mildew. Store in a cool, dry place.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Pool is not level. | Uneven ground. | Drain pool, disassemble, and re-level the ground before reassembly. |
| Water is cloudy. | Poor filtration, chemical imbalance, or debris. | Check filter pump (if installed), adjust water chemistry, and clean pool. |
| Water is leaking. | Puncture in liner or loose drain plug. | Locate leak and use a repair patch kit. Ensure drain plug is securely closed. |
