2 Locate cord to minimise abuse from la wn mowers,hedge trimmers and other To reduce the risk of electrical shock, replace damaged cord )SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS3 HOW YOUR Aquasphere chlorinator WORKSC ommon salt (sodium chloride) is made up of two elements, sodium andchlorine. When your Aquasphere chlorinator is installed, a measuredquantity of salt is dissolved in the pool water to make it slightly salty. As partof the daily ltration cycle, the pool water is passed through the electrolysiscell to produce chlorine which is dissolved instantly into the chlorinator also produces ozone in the cell as a by-product.

3 In simple,non-technical terms, the chlorine instantly st arts to destroy bacteria, virusesand algae, and in doing this reverts to dissolved salt. This cycle continueswith more new chlorine being produced from the salt water in theelectrolysis cell, sanitising the pool, and changing once more back todissolved , when the Aquasphere chlorinator and the ltration sy stem areswitched on, dust and debris are trapped by the lter and the chlorinatorsanitises the water to make if safe and sparkling ensure your chlorinator works at maximum e ciency, regularly check andmaintain the chemistry of your pool.

5 Your chlorinator is also t ted withindicator lights that monitor the operation of the chlorinator and theconcentration of salt in the chlorinator is designed to require minimum operator maintenance anduses reverse polarity technology to minimise the scaling of the PANEL FUNCTIONSO utput controlThe chlorine output is set by the Chlorine Output Control located onthe front panel and the chlorine output is indicated by a row of four indicator / O Button (Large button on the Timeswitch)This button overrides any automatic internal timeswitch setting and switchesyour chlorinator and ltration sy stem ON and function is helpful for checking and/or altering the chlorine outputsettings and other maintenance tasks.

6 Operation of the ON/OFF button willnot change the timeswitch settings. In fact the chlorinator is so smart, it willswitch itself back to automatic for OPERATIONThe Timeswitch display may be blank initially. Once mains power is applied,the internal backup battery will only take a short time to charge enough forthe display to turn on. All the timeswitch settings can be cancelled bypressing the Reset button using a pointed object such as a pen. This willleave the clock display ashing.

7 Pressing the Clock button will stop thedisplay ashing and the following procedure for setting the clock can then ting the Clock1. Push and HOLD the Clock button (marked with a clock face).2.

If you wish to set the time switchfor di erent times on di erent days then continue NOT OPERATE THE Aquasphere chlorinator CONTINUOUSLY(ie; 24 HOURS A DAY), AS THIS WILL PREVENT THE SELF-CLEANINGFEATURE FROM OPERATION4.
