1. Unfold the Liner: Carefully unfold the pool liner in the prepared area.
2. Identify Frame Components: Separate the different frame poles and connectors. Note that some frame poles are designed to fit inside larger poles.

3. Assemble the Top Rail: Connect the horizontal top rail poles using the T-joints and corner connectors.
4. Attach Vertical Legs: Insert the vertical support legs into the T-joints along the sides of the pool. Ensure they are securely seated.
5. Secure the Frame: Follow the specific diagrams provided with your product for the exact sequence of connecting the frame pieces to the pool liner's sleeves. Ensure all connections are firm.
6. Smooth the Liner: Once the frame is assembled, gently smooth out any wrinkles in the pool liner.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Filling the Pool

1. Initial Water Level: Begin filling the pool with water. As the water level rises, continue to smooth out any remaining wrinkles in the bottom of the liner.
2. Check for Leaks: Monitor for any leaks during the initial filling process. If leaks are detected, stop filling and inspect connections or liner for damage.
3. Optimal Water Level: Fill the pool to the recommended water line, typically just below the top rail. The pool has a capacity of approximately 1049 gallons.

5.2 Draining the Pool

To drain the pool, locate the drain plug, typically at the bottom side of the pool liner. Connect a garden hose (if compatible) to direct the water away from the pool area and any structures. Open the drain plug to allow water to flow out.

6. Maintenance

6.1 Water Quality

• Test Water Regularly: Use a pool test kit to check pH, chlorine, and alkalinity levels. Adjust as necessary according to chemical manufacturer guidelines.
• Sanitize Water: Add appropriate pool sanitizers (e.g., chlorine) to keep the water clean and free from bacteria and algae.
• Filtration: If using an external filter pump (not included with this pool model), ensure it runs for several hours daily to circulate and clean the water.

6.2 Cleaning the Pool

• Skim Debris: Regularly remove leaves, insects, and other debris from the water surface using a skimmer net.
• Brush Walls and Floor: Periodically brush the pool walls and floor to prevent algae buildup.
• Vacuum: Use a pool vacuum to remove dirt and debris from the bottom of the pool.

7. Storage

When not in use for extended periods or during off-season, proper storage will prolong the life of your pool.

1. Drain Completely: Ensure the pool is completely drained of water.
2. Clean and Dry: Thoroughly clean the pool liner and frame components. Allow all parts to dry completely to prevent mold and mildew.
3. Disassemble: Carefully disassemble the frame, reversing the assembly steps.
4. Fold and Store: Fold the liner neatly and store all components in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

8. Troubleshooting

• Water Leaks: Inspect the liner for punctures or tears. Use a vinyl repair kit for small holes. Check all hose connections if a pump is used.
• Unstable Frame: Ensure the pool is on a perfectly level surface. Verify all frame connections are securely fastened and poles are correctly inserted.
• Cloudy Water: Check and adjust water chemistry (pH, alkalinity, sanitizer levels). Ensure proper filtration if a pump is used. Shock treatment may be necessary.
• Algae Growth: Increase sanitizer levels and brush pool surfaces. Consider an algaecide if persistent.
