injury and death. To reduce your risk of injury, read and follow all product, package
and package insert warnings and instructions. Remember, however, that product
warnings, instructions and safety guidelines cover some common risks of water
recreation, but do not cover all risks and or dangers.
For additional safeguards, also familiarize yourself with the following geeral guidelines

•
Learn to swim.
•
Take the time to learn CPR and first aid.
•
Instruct anyone who is supervising pool users about potential pool hazards and about
the use of protective devices such as locked doors, barriers, etc.
•
Instruct all pool users, including children what to do in case of an emergency.
•
Always use common sense and good judgement when enjoying any water activity.

Supervise, supervise, supervise.
