only to a branch circuit protected by a ground-
fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). Contact a qualified electrician if you
cannot verify that the circuit is protected by a GFCI.
This unit must be connected only to a supply circuit
that is protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter
(GFCI). Such a GFCI should be provided by the in-
staller and should be tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the
test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power
should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI
is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the pump without the test but-
ton being pushed, a ground current is flowing, indicating the possibility of
an electric shock. Do not use this pump. Disconnect the pump and have
the problem corrected by a qualified service representative before using.
This pump is for use with permanent swimming pools
and may also be used with hot tubs and spas if so
marked. Do not use with storable pools. A permanent-
ly-installed pool is constructed in or on the ground or in
a building such that it cannot be readily disassembled for storage. A storable
pool is constructed so that it is capable of being readily disassembled for
storage and reassembled to its original integrity.
General Warnings
• Never open the inside of the drive motor enclosure. There is a capacitor
bank that holds a 230 VAC charge even when there is no power to the
unit.
• The pump is not submersible.
• The pump is capable of high flow rates; use caution when installing
and programming to limit pumps performance potential with old or
questionable equipment.
• Code requirements for the electrical connection differ from state to state.
Install equipment in accordance with the current National Electrical
Code and all applicable local codes and ordinances.
• Before servicing the pump; switch OFF power to the pump by
disconnecting the main circuit to the pump.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) of
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Sufficient equipotential bonding (min. 4.5mm2 recommended), in
accordance with local regulation, is required on all metal components
of the pool including the pool pump. It is required for electrical safety
as well as to reduce the risk of corrosion.

S U C T I O N E N T R A P M E N T H A Z A R D : S TAY
OFF THE MAIN DRAIN AND AWAY FROM ALL
SUCTION OUTLETS!
THIS PUMP PRODUCES HIGH LEVELS OF SUCTION AND CREATES A
STRONG VACUUM AT THE MAIN DRAIN AT THE BOTTOM OF THE BODY
OF WATER. THIS SUCTION IS SO STRONG THAT IT CAN TRAP ADULTS
OR CHILDREN UNDER WATER IF THEY COME IN CLOSE PROXIMIT Y
TO A DRAIN OR A LOOSE OR BROKEN DRAIN COVER OR GRATE.
RISK OF ELEC TRICAL SHOCK OR ELEC TROCU -
TION: PUMPS REQUIRE HIGH VOLTAGE WHICH
CAN SHOCK, BURN, OR CAUSE DEATH. BEFORE
WORKING ON PUMP! Always disconnect power to
the pool pump at the circuit breaker from the pump
before servicing the pump. Failure to do so could result
in death or serious injury to service person, pool users
or others due to electric shock.
THE USE OF UNAPPR OVED COVERS OR ALLOWING USE OF THE
POOL OR SPA WHEN COVERS ARE MISSING, CRACKED OR BROKEN
CAN RESULT IN BODY OR LIMB ENTRAPMENT, HAIR ENTANGLEMENT,
BODY ENTRAPMENT, EVISCERATION AND/OR DEATH.
The suction at a drain or outlet can cause:
Limb Entrapment: When a limb is sucked or inserted into an opening
resulting in a mechanical bind or swelling. This hazard is present when
a drain cover is missing, broken, loose, cracked or not properly secured.
Hair Entanglement: When the hair tangles or knots in the drain cover, trap-
ping the swimmer underwater. This hazard is present when the flow rating
of the cover is too small for the pump or pumps.
