Troubleshooting
Pool not holding its shape or sides are collapsing
Ensure the top ring is fully inflated and the pool is placed on a perfectly level surface. Check that the water level is not exceeding the 80% fill line.
Water draining slowly or not at all
Ensure the drain plug is properly connected to a garden hose and that the hose is not kinked. Check for any debris obstructing the drain outlet.
Solar cover does not seem to heat the water effectively
Ensure the cover is laid flat on the water surface and is not obstructed. For best results, the pool should be in direct sunlight for several hours. Note that the cover's primary function is to retain heat and reduce evaporation, not to act as a primary heater.
Small leak detected in the pool material
Clean and dry the affected area thoroughly. Apply the included repair patch according to the patch manufacturer's instructions for a secure seal.
Top ring losing air
Inspect the inflation valve and the ring for any visible punctures or damage. Use the included repair kit to patch any small holes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

- Choose a flat, level, and clear outdoor area free of sharp objects.
- Unroll the pool and locate the inflation point for the top ring.
- Inflate the top ring using an air pump until it is firm but not overinflated.
- Begin filling the pool with water. As the water level rises, the pool will self-erect and the sides will straighten.

- Attach the solar cover once the pool is filled.
Compatibility:
- The included solar cover is designed for pools up to 305 cm in diameter.
- Consider purchasing a compatible Intex filter pump and an appropriate pool ladder for enhanced usability and safety (sold separately).
- Ensure you have a garden hose available for the drain plug.
Care:
- Clean the pool regularly with a soft cloth or sponge. Mild soap and water can be used for stubborn marks.
- Keep the solar cover on when the pool is not in use to minimize debris and evaporation.
- Check the water regularly and maintain appropriate chemical levels if using pool chemicals (follow chemical manufacturer instructions).
- Store the pool indoors during freezing temperatures or prolonged periods of non-use. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mold and mildew. A repair patch is included for minor punctures.
