IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Important Notice:
Attention Installer: This manual contains important information about the
installation, operation and safe use of this product. This information should be given to the owner and/or
operator of this equipment. When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
WARNING: IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS. READ AND FOLLOW ALL
INSTRUCTIONS.
Before installing this product, read and follow all warning notices and instructions which are
included. Failure to follow safety warnings and instructions can result in severe injury, death,
or property damage. Call (800) 831-7133 for additional free copies of these instructions, or

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product.
WARNING: CHLORINE GAS BUILDUP CAN OCCUR WITH IMPROPER WIRING: To reduce the risk of
personal injury the IntelliChlor ® Electronic Chlorine Generator (IECG) Power Center must be installed on and
wirded to the load side of the time clock, electronically controlled switch, or relay load side, so that it will
receive power only when the pool pump is on. Otherwise, dangerous chlorine gas buildup can occur. The IECG
should never be energized when the pool pump is OFF and water is not flowing through the unit.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, service should only be personnel by a qualified pool
service professional.
WARNING: Never operate the IntelliChlor Electronic Chlorine Generator (IECG) without proper flow or
water circulation. A build-up of flammable gases will result in hazardous conditions.
CAUTION - IntelliChlor Electronic Chlorine Generator (IECG) is for use with permanently-installed pools
and may also be used with hot tubs and spas if so marked. Do not use with storable pools. A permanently-
installed pool is constructed in or on the ground or in a building such that it cannot be readily disassembled for
storage. A storable pool is constructed so that it is capable of being readily disassembled for storage and
reassembled to its original integrity.
CAUTION - When using the IntelliChlor Electronic Chlorine Generator (IECG) with an IntelliTouch ® ,
EasyTouch ® or SunTouch ® system, always wire the IECG Power Center to the pump side of the relay located in
the IntelliTouch, EasyTouch or SunTouch load center. This wiring method does not require a ground fault circuit-
interrupter (GFCI) to protect the circuit. A green colored terminal (or a wire connector marked “G”, “GR”,
“Ground” or “Grounding”) is provided within the terminal compartment in the Power Center transformer
enclosure. To reduce risk of electric shock, connect this terminal or connector to the grounding terminal of
your electric service or supply panel with a conductor equivalent in size to the circuit conductors supplying
this equipment. The power supply must be interconnected with pool pump motor power source. This insures
the IECG and pool pump will switch on and off together.
