Poolguard PGRM-2 Mode D'emploi page 6

TEST BEFORE USING
To ensure effectiveness, test POOLGUARD every time you place it into the pool by performing the
following procedure:
• POOLGUARD DOES NOT HAVE AN ON/OFF SWITCH When the alarm is in the pool it is always
in the ON position and cannot be turned off. When the alarm is out of the pool it is always
in the OFF position.
• To test your alarm push an object of appropriate volume and weight off the deck edge at the
farthest location from the alarm. (A four (4) gallon jug of water or 3-one (1) gallon jugs of water tied
together are ideal for testing.) The alarm should sound when the water action caused by the
intrusion reaches the unit. It may take a few seconds for the alarm to react to the water action.
• After resetting the alarm and allowing time for the water action to settle, repeat the procedure
from another point in the pool until you are confident of detection performance.
• POOLGUARD includes a timer function which automatically resets the unit after the alarm
has sounded for approximately 5 minutes.
ADJUSTING YOUR RETURN LINE FITTINGS
The POOLGUARD unit should not be placed too close to a return line from the filter area.Water tur-
bulence may be too strong and falsely set the alarm off. If you have more than 2 return lines please
call customer service at 1-800-242-7163. It is very important in pools to adjust all the eyeball fittings
on your return lines so they will not interfere with your pool alarm. It is not necessary to point your
eyeball up for your pool to circulate properly. If the water is swirling on top of the pool this makes the
pool to turbulent for your alarm to work properly. Point the eyeball down and your pool will still circu-
late properly and allow your alarm to function properly. If you point the eyeball fitting up, your
alarm may not function properly. (See Figure 5)
