Start-up and Operation -
Mineral Activator now with 25% Greater Clarifying Power for easier start up.
Add a stabilizer or
conditioner to the pool
at the beginning of the
season if the stabilizer
level is below 20 ppm.
This will prevent chlorine burn off. Follow
manufacturer’s directions carefully.
Install an Mineral Activator into
the Docking Station or Cycler
(see page 3 for directions).
REPLACE THE MINERAL
ACTIVATOR EVERY 6 MONTHS
OR AFTER ONE POOL SEASON
WHICHEVER IS SHORTER.

minutes at Setting 5.
SETTING CONTROL DIAL Set control dial by matching up the parameters of your pool on the charts below. THIS IS A STARTING POINT ONLY and may
need to be adjusted to fit your individual pool needs. See #8 for directions.
When chlorine reading is down
to 1.0 ppm, which may take a
few days, insert MizerMax Pac
(see page 4 for directions). Create a chlorine residual
with Optimize or a chlorine
shock (see page 4 for
Optimize directions). THIS

Shock the pool with

contaminants (see page 4
for directions).
WARNING
3. If your fill water is high in metals, use a
sequestering agent or metal out at start-up only
before using a Mineral Activator. See your local dealer
for details on using these products and always follow
manufacturers’ directions carefully.
4. After your pool is up and running
smoothly, continue to test your water for
pH, total alkalinity and chlorine with Aqua
Smarte Brand Test Strips and maintain
its balance by adding any necessary
adjustment products (see your dealer for
details).
5. Check the pool’s filter gauge often
and periodically clean filter per the
manufacturer’s directions. A dirty filter will
slow the flow of water which could hamper
proper circulation.
Water Balance Guidelines
pH: 7.2 – 7.8
Total Alkalinity: 60 – 120 ppm
Calcium Hardness: 150 – 400
Total Dissolved Solids: <1500
Stabilizer: 20 – 80 ppm
Free Chlorine: 0.5 – 1.0 ppm
1. Make sure the pool has
adequate circulation. The pool
water must completely circulate
through the pump and filter at
least 1 to 2 times per day. This
usually requires 8 to 12 hours.
Check with your dealer for the
proper circulation time for your
pool.
2. Before beginning with any
pool care program, you must first
balance your pool water. Take a
water sample to your local pool
professional who will test for for
the following important elements.
Swimming Pool Tips
If using standard chlorine shock do not add in or near
the skimmer or into the Docking Station or Cycler as
it could damage equipment, risk potential explosion
or discolor your pool surface.
