5. Connecting the Filter Pump

Connect the hoses from the pool's inlet and outlet fittings to the RX600 Filter Pump. Ensure all connections are tight to prevent leaks. Place the filter pump on a stable, level surface near the pool, ensuring it is not directly in the path of water splash.

6. Filling the Pool

Begin filling the pool with water. As the water level rises, the inflatable top ring will float and help the pool walls rise. Smooth out any remaining wrinkles on the bottom as the pool fills. Fill the pool to the indicated "MAX FILL" line on the liner.

Operating Instructions

Filter Pump Operation

Once the pool is filled, plug the GFCI-protected filter pump into a suitable electrical outlet. The pump should run for several hours each day to ensure proper water circulation and filtration. Refer to the pump's specific instructions for recommended operating times based on pool usage and water conditions.

Water Treatment

It is essential to treat pool water with appropriate chemicals (e.g., chlorine, algaecide) to maintain hygiene and prevent algae growth. Test the water regularly using a pool test kit and adjust chemical levels as needed. Consult a pool supply professional for specific chemical recommendations and dosages for your pool size.

Maintenance

Filter Cartridge Cleaning and Replacement

The Type D filter cartridge should be rinsed with a garden hose daily or every other day, depending on pool usage and debris. Replace the filter cartridge every 2-4 weeks or when it becomes visibly dirty and cannot be cleaned effectively. Always unplug the filter pump before performing any maintenance.

Pool Cleaning

Regularly remove leaves, insects, and other debris from the pool surface using a skimmer net. Brush the pool walls and bottom as needed to prevent dirt buildup. For heavier debris, a pool vacuum (not included) may be used.

Liner Care

The pool liner is made from durable 3-ply ToughMesh materials designed to resist punctures. However, avoid sharp objects and rough play that could damage the liner. If a small puncture occurs, use the included repair patch following the instructions provided with the patch.
