Hayward Viio Turbo AE5500 Owner's Manual
Important Safety Instructions
Warning
Read this entire Owner’s Guide before installing the
Viio cleaner. Failure to follow safety warnings and
owner’s guide instructions can result in severe injury,
death or property damage.
Warning – Risk of Electrical Shock
The Hayward Viio Turbo Automatic Pool Cleaner is
designed to connect to a threaded 1-1/2 inch female
pipe fitting on a dedicated return line that is powered by
a 3/4 H.P. Booster Pump. All electrical connections
must be done by a qualified electrician according to
local electrical standard. If the supply cord is
damaged, it must be replacing by the manufacturer,
its service agent or similarly qualified persons in
order to avoid a hazard.
Warning – Risk of Injury
Failure to follow the safety warnings below may result
in severe injury, death or property damage.
• Always disconnect and remove the cleaner and
pressure hose before entering the pool.
• Always handle with care. Do not let children or pets
play with the cleaner; it is not a toy.
• Always turn the Booster Pump OFF before handling
cleaner
• Do not operate outside the pool. The Viio Turbo
Cleaner and hoses contain high-pressure water jets
that may cause injury.
• Disconnect pressure hose from the universal wall
fitting before removing the cleaner from the pool.
• Never point any of the cleaner’s high-pressure jets,
pressure hose or sweep hose at any person or pets.
Important Information
Caution – Risk of Equipment Damage
• Always turn the Filtration Pump on before turning the
booster pump on. Running the booster pump dry will
damage the booster pump and is not covered by the
Hayward warranty.
• Always disconnect and remove the Viio cleaner and
hoses from the pool before cleaning or backwashing
the pool filter.
• After cleaning or backwashing the pool filter, allow the
filtration system to run for a minimum of five minutes
or until all debris has been flushed from plumbing lines
before reconnecting the Viio cleaner.
• New plumbing lines must be flushed out before
connecting the Viio cleaner.
• The Viio cleaner should not be used to remove plaster
dust or construction debris from new or renovated
pools.
• The Viio cleaner should not be used to remove
excessive sand (dense debris) following wind or
sandstorm.
• Always disconnect and remove the Viio cleaner and
hoses before chemically shocking the pool.
• Only operate the Viio cleaner for the period of time
necessary to clean the pool. Excessive use is
unnecessary and will cause cleaner parts to
prematurely wear.
• Regularly inspect the cleaner and hoses; do not use if
damaged or if any rough edges are visible on the
cleaner; this can cause damage to the pool.
• Only pick-up the Viio cleaner by its wing (Part A, page
4), never by the hose or bag.
Disclaimer
• Pool plaster is affected by age, water chemistry, etc.
• Pool plaster can deteriorate over a period of time.
• The integrity of “good” pool plaster is such that a pool
vacuum cleaner – automatic or manual – cannot
remove the plaster.
• The integrity of “good” pool plaster is such that the
plaster will cause wear on the cleaner, the cleaner will
not wear out “good” pool plaster.
• Vinyl pool liners are affected by age, sunlight, and
water chemistry.
• Vinyl pool liners can become brittle and weak.
• Vinyl pool liners can be affected by the installation and
the pool's surroundings.
• Patterns on vinyl pool liners vary in quality.
• When installing the Viio cleaner, you assume
responsibility for the condition of the pool and the
pool's surroundings and chemistry.

This manual is for Viio owners who want to install their
Automatic Pool Cleaner. However, we recommend that
an Authorized Hayward Dealer install the cleaner.
The Hayward SP6050 Booster Pump purchased
separately as part of the Viio Automatic Pool Cleaner
package offers optimum cleaner performance. Use of
other booster pumps will provide acceptable
performance if they deliver 2,4 Bar at 2,7 m3/h at the
dedicated line pool wall fitting. For electrical and
plumbing installation procedures for the Hayward
Booster Pump, refer to the Owner's Guide that comes
with the Hayward SP6050 Booster Pump.
Warning – Risk of Electrical Shock
You should have a licensed electrician install the
cleaner’s booster pump. All electrical connections
must be done by a qualified electrician according to
local electrical standard.

Preparing the Pool
The Viio cleaner should not be used to clean the pool
for spring start-up until the following steps have been
taken:
1. Clear the pool of any large objects that might
interfere with the cleaner’s operation.
2. Check to see that the water is at the recommended
level.
3. Check the water chemistry. The water should be
properly balanced (pH level) and the pool free from
algae.
Note: Algae can adversely affect the operation and
performance of the cleaner.
4. Clean or backwash the filtration system without the
Viio cleaner in the pool.
Caution – Risk of Equipment Damage.
Always disconnect the Viio cleaner and hoses from
the Universal Wall Fitting and remove from pool
before backwashing or cleaning the filtration
system. Failure to do so can damage the Booster
Pump and Cleaner.
5. Clean the filtration system pump’s strainer basket.
Note: Following the installation of the Viio cleaner,
clean the system at regular intervals according to
individual pool conditions.
New Pool Construction
1. Brush newly constructed pool surface and vacuum
new surface debris before installing the Viio.
Pools with Excessive Sand
Pools with excessive amounts of sand (dense
debris) should be vacuumed manually before
installing the Viio.
The Viio Bag has a larger mesh area toward the
bottom of the bag that allows sand in excess of 1
cup to pass through the bag. This feature enables
the Viio to continue to operate picking up leaves,
acorns, grasses etc. without falling on its side like
other pressure cleaners.
Dedicated Booster Pump Return Line
The Viio cleaner is designed to connect to a 1-1/2 inch
dedicated return line that is approximately 6 inches
below the normal water level and have 1-1/2 inch female
threads. If the dedicated return line has 3/4 inch female
threads, you will need to purchase a 1-1/2 inch NPTF x
3/4 inch NPTM adapter.
Tools Needed for Installation
• Flat blade screwdriver for adjusting the regulator on
the wall quick connect.
• Ridgid pressure hose measuring tape (included in
bag #1).
Sand (dense debris)
Always empty the Viio bag when sand (or heavy
debris) fills the bag up to the “Empty Sand Line”.
Pools with excessive amounts of sand should be
manually vacuumed before installing the Viio.
The Viio is designed to operate with 1 cup of sand
and the remainder of its bag filled with leaves,
acorns, grasses. etc.
Use Only Genuine Hayward Replacement Parts.

two starting threads on the end of the Universal
Wall Fitting un-taped.
6. Screw the Universal Wall Fitting into the Dedicated
Return Line.
