Intended use

Our automatic swimming pool fl oor cleaner „Poolrunner S63" is a new,
powerful and automatic system for cleaning swimming pools. Through
its advanced computer controlled program, it can clean the pool fl oor
automatically without draining pool water. At the same time, it fi lters
the pool water and gets rid of suspended particles and sediments. The
Poolrunner S63 can only absorb loose debris particles from the fl oor. An
adherent contamination must still be removed manually. For safe ope-
ration, the cleaner works on 24V direct current. Please read these inst-
ructions carefully in order to use it properly. The automatic pool cleaner
can be used for almost all standard pools with fl at, level ground. Only
use the product as described in this instruction manual. Any other use is
considered improper use and may lead to personal injury or damage to
property. This item is not a toy. The manufacturer or retailer assumes no
liability for damage resulting from improper or incorrect use.

not be damaged by lawn mowers and other similar devices. Do not
kink the cable and do not lay it over sharp edges. Do not use an
extension cable, multiple socket adapters or other adapters.
In order to prevent severe damage to the cleaner, never power on
the unit when it is outside of the swimming pool! The device must
be connected to an earthed 230 V protective contact socket. Do

released to avoid any winding, which could affect the cleaner's
performance or cause damage. The fi lter bags should be cleaned
immediately every time you use the unit. The cleaner should be
stored in a cool and
ventilated place, away from direct sunlight, when not in use. The
power supply unit should be placed in a shaded area. In order to
avoid overheating and the potential damage of components, never
cover the power supply unit. Only authorized after sales service
personnel should open and repair the cleaner's motor assembly
