W
ARNING:
USE OF POLARIS 340 IN A VINYL LINER POOL
Cer
tain vin
yl liner patterns are particularly susceptible to rapid surface wear or pattern removal caused by objects coming into
contact with the vinyl surface, including pool brushes, pool toys, floats, fountains, chlorine dispensers, and automatic pool
cleaners. Some vinyl liner patterns can be seriously scratched or abraded simply by rubbing the surface with a pool brush. Ink
from the patter
n can also rub off during the installation process or when it comes into contact with objects in the pool. Polaris is
not responsible for, and the Limited Warranty does not cover, pattern removal, abrasion or markings on vinyl liners.
