IMPORTANT SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR POOL USE

Please read & understand prior to using pool.

To enhance the enjoyment of your Rectangular Steel Frame Pool and
protect the safety of those in and around the pool, ALWAYS STRICTLY
OBSERVE the following safety and maintenance instructions:

1) It is the responsibility of the pool owner to identify and obey all local and state
laws pertaining to above ground swimming pool safety PRIOR to set-up or use of
the pool. These include, but are not limited to, laws on: decks, fences, barriers,
covers, pool ladders, lighting, and required safety equipment. Please consult your
local authorities to ensure compliance.

2) Do not use sand during setup process. If it appears that there is a need for use of a
“leveling agent”, then your set-up site is likely unsuitable. FAILURE TO OBEY
THIS WARNING MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.

3) Do not allow unattended Children in the pool. Always make sure that at least one
responsible adult is supervising all Children and those who do not know how to
swim AT ALL TIMES. Never swim / bathe in the pool alone.

4) NEVER permit diving or jumping into the pool. Never enter the pool from any
decks or other raised surfaces. The water level in your pool is extremely shallow
and is not suitable for these activities. Failure to heed these instructions can result
in serious injury or even death.

5) Do not permit Children or adults to engage in any “rough-housing” or other
aggressive sports or activity in or around the pool. Failure to observe this
guideline can result in serious injury for those in and around the pool area.

6) Always maintain the proper pool safety equipment in an easily accessible area
adjacent to your pool. Clearly post emergency phone numbers as well as safety
advisories and rules (such as “No Jumping or Diving” and “Do Not Swim Alone”).
Do not allow bathers in the pool unless the area is sufficiently bright or lighted.

7) The filter pump included with your pool is designed to remove dirt and other
small particles from your pool water. However, to maintain pool water that is
perfectly clear, algae free, and safe from harmful bacteria, it is

VERY
IMPORTANT TO ENGAGE IN A CONSISTENT REGIMEN OF CHEMICAL
TREATMENT

. Contact your local pool supply retailer for guidance on the safe

and effective use of chlorine, shock, algaecide and other such chemicals.

8) To avoid skin and eye irritation or even injury to bathers, never add chemicals to
the pool while it is occupied. Never add any chemicals or substances to your pool
if you cannot verify the exact quantity or type to add to the water. Consult a pool
supply retailer for specific instructions and guidelines concerning the use of
chemicals in your pool.

9) It is highly recommended that pool owners frequently test their pool water to
ensure that the pH and chlorine concentration in the water is optimal for safe and
enjoyable bathing throughout the season. Please consult your pool supply retailer
to find a suitable testing kit and instructions on its use.

10) All equipment, including pool liner, inflatable ring, hoses, drain covers, pump
body, (if included: covers, ground cloth, ladders, maintenance kit) and electrical
cords should be inspected frequently for signs of corrosion, deterioration, missing
or broken parts, or any other potential hazard.

11) Rectangular Steel Frame Pools are designed to be storable, seasonal pools. If you
live in a temperate area in which the pool will not be in use year-round, it is
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you drain your pool, clean and dry it
thoroughly, and store it in a protected area for the off-season. This will help
extend the life of your pool and prevent a safety hazard from developing while the
pool is not in use.

12) All filtrations are in agreement with the installation standard NF C 15-100 that
specify that all electric appliances located within 3.50 m for the pond and with a
free access should have a low voltage supply of 12V. All electrical appliance
supplied with 220V must be located at least at 3.50 meter from the edge of the
pond. Consult the manufacturer for any change of one or several elements to the
filtration system.

13) Your children’s safety only depends on you! Risk is higher when children are
under 5 years. Accidents not only happen to other people! Be ready to face it!

14) Supervise and act:

- Children supervision should be close and constant;

- Name only one safety supervisor;

- Reinforce supervision when there are several users in the swimming pool;

- Ask for personnel safety floating equipment (for people who cannot swim);

- Teach your children to swim as early as possible;

- Get your neck, arms and legs wet before you enter the water;

- Make sure you are trained in life-saving techniques, especially those for
children;

- Forbid diving or jumping among young children;

- Forbid races and “rough playing” around the pool;

- Do not allow children who are unable to swim, to enter the pool without swim
vest or armbands, and without adult supervision;

- Do not leave toys near or in the pool with no supervision;

- Always keep the water clear and sane;

- Store the water treatment products away from children reach.

15) Always keep:

- Accessible telephone at the poolside in order not to leave the children alone

when you are on the phone;

- Buoy and pole at the poolside.

16) Moreover some equipment can contribute to safety:

- Protective barrier with the gate always shut (for example a hedge cannot be

considered as a barrier);

- A manual or automatic protection cover properly installed and secured;

- An electronic detector of passage or fall, working and operational; But none of

them will replace a close supervision.

17) If an accident occurs:

- Take the child out of the pool promptly;

- Call immediately for assistance and follow the advises given to you;

- Replace wet clothes by hot blankets.

18) Memorize and keep the emergency call numbers at poolside:

- Fire brigade : (18 for France);

- Samu (ER) : (15 for France);

- Anti poison center.

19) Never put the swimming pool in the open air.
