This document describes the assembly, usage, and maintenance of a steel wall swimming pool.

Function Description

The device is a steel wall swimming pool designed for outdoor family use. It provides a recreational water body and comes as a kit requiring assembly. The manual emphasizes safety precautions, proper site preparation, and detailed installation steps for various components, including the pool wall, liner, support structures, and filtration system.

- 5.00 x 3.00 m: 14.55 m³ (120 cm height), 16.21 m³ (132 cm height)
Liner Height (h): 1.05 m (for 120 cm pools), 1.17 m (for 132 cm pools).
Electrical Safety: Any electrical appliance fed in 220 V must be located at least 3.50 m from the pool edge. Equipment should be connected to a voltage with earth connection, protected by a residual current device (RCD) with a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA.
Liner Material: Flexible PVC (thermoplastic), designed for exposure to heat and UV rays. Optimal installation temperature is between 20 °C and 25 °C.
Support Structure: Steel wall, metal brackets (EM1, EM2), upright supports (PV2), cross-supports (PTM), and struts with drop-forged parts (PE).
Joint Protectors: EM (ZC+ZR) for 120-132 cm pools, TPL&TP for 132 cm pools.
Protective Strips: Wide PVC strips (TPVCP) and narrower PVC strip (TPVC) to protect the liner from metal parts.

Usage Features

Outdoor Family Use: Designed for recreational use by families.
Supervision: Continuous, active, and vigilant supervision of weak and non-swimmers by a competent adult is required at all times, especially for children under five.
Safety Equipment: Recommended to keep rescue equipment (e.g., ring buoy) and emergency phone numbers near the pool.
Swimming Skills: Encourage all users, especially children, to learn how to swim.
First Aid: Learn Basic Life Support (CPR) and refresh knowledge regularly.
No Diving: Never dive into shallow water to prevent serious injury or death.
Substance Avoidance: Do not use the pool under the influence of alcohol or medication that may impair safe use.
Pool Covers: Remove completely from the water surface before entering the pool.
Water Treatment: Maintain pool water treatment and good hygiene to protect occupants from water-related illnesses. Store chemicals out of reach of children.
Signage: Display safety signage prominently within 2 m of the pool.
Ladders: Removable ladders should be placed on a horizontal surface when not in use.
Salt Chlorinator (Optional): If installed, must be fitted with a grounding connection and sacrificial anode to prevent rust on metal parts.
Water Level: The pool water level must always be at least 15 cm from the edge of the upper edge.
Filtration System: Use the filtering system once a day during the season, and always when the pool is not used for bathing. Regularly verify the obstruction level of the filtering means.
Never Completely Empty: Do not completely empty the pool, as this risks seriously damaging the pool structure.
Chemical Treatment: Follow manufacturer instructions for pH (7.2-7.6) and chlorine (0.5-2 ppm) levels. Perform shock chlorination when needed. Use a floating dispenser for chemical tablets.
Mechanical Checks: Regularly check the filter, skimmer, valves, and pipes for proper connection.
Vacuum Cleaning: Use a vacuum cleaner (manual or automatic) connected to the skimmer for cleaning the bottom.
Bottom Cleaner (Ventury Style): Connect a garden hose to the bottom cleaner for cleaning.

Maintenance Features

Site Preparation: The ground must be firm, smooth, and perfectly flat. Level the ground by removing material from the top of slopes, not filling from the bottom. Remove grass, roots, stones. Spread a light coat of sieved sand (max. 1cm) and compact it.
Component Classification: Draw and classify all components before assembly. Report missing parts to after-sales service within 15 days of purchase.
Joint Protectors: Pay attention to joint protectors when classifying components.
Deburring: Deburr all edges of the closing wall (CH) and trim pieces (PLY) using a file and sandpaper before assembly.
Liner Installation: Stretch and extend the PVC liner in the shade for at least 2 hours before positioning. Optimal ambient temperature for liner installation is 20-25°C. Position the liner evenly to prevent folds and wrinkles.
Screw Tightening: Ensure screw heads face inwards and washers/blind nuts outwards when closing the pool plate (CH). Tighten screws without distorting the plate.
Protective PVC Strips: Place wide PVC strips (TPVCP) to cover metal brackets in straight areas and narrower PVC strips (TPVC) to cover screw heads on the pool wall.
Protective Blanket/Tapestry (Optional): If included, clean the pool wall and floor with a vacuum cleaner before placing the blanket/tapestry. Cut excess material to cover lower profiles and metal parts.
Winter Season (Dismounting):
1. Empty the pool using a filter or automatic pump.
2. Clean all pool constituents with a sponge and neutral pH soap, then dry and store in a dry, clean place.
Winter Season (Not Dismounting):
1. Clean the liner bottom and sides with a non-abrasive product.
2. Treat water with a chemical product for wintering (e.g., LIQUID WINTERISER).
3. Reduce water level (5 cm under skimmer for pools with skimmer/refilling pipe, 20 cm from superior edge for pools with exhaustion/refilling pipes).
4. Disconnect pipes, but do not dismount skimmer/refilling/exhaustion pipes.
5. Protect the pool with a winter cover and floating element to prevent frost.
6. Clean and store the filter in a covered, sheltered place.
7. Remove, rinse, and store all accessories (ladder, alarm, spotlight, pole).
Post-Winter Re-assembly: Remove winter cover, install filter, change at least 1/3 of water, perform chlorine treatment, and run filter for at least 8 uninterrupted hours.
Regular Checks: Revise all screws and check for possible corrosion points.
Liner Repair: Small holes in the liner can be repaired with AR202 or V12 patches.
Water Temperature: Isothermal covers protect from insects, dust, leaves, and prevent water temperature loss.
End of Life: Disassemble the pool and separate materials (plastic, steel) for disposal at designated local authorities. Reuse water if possible.
